LATROBE, Pa. — A crowd of about 7,000 people gathered at Arnold Palmer Regional Airport in Latrobe Thursday night to watch President Donald Trump’s speech ahead of the November elections.

The airport estimated that 5,000 people were on the field and inside the event -- with an extra 2,000 surrounding the airport and 900 of those estimated to be sitting in the hangar when the president spoke.

Thousands of people were shuttled in, standing to watch Trump’s 90 minute speech. The majority of those in attendance were not wearing face masks or within six feet of each other, so why was it allowed to go on?

Gabe Monzo, executive director of the airport, told Channel 11 his staff of about 20 handled logistics of the event -- not mitigation measures.

It was a peaceful protest, Wolfie. There are no limits for "peaceful protests."

I have a question, "Why was Portland and Kenosha allowed to go on? Different priorities, I suppose. Not wearing face mask? Oh, the humanity! The media will never get their panties out of a wad. Unfortunately, some conservative women are very susceptipal to this message.

“Trump rally organizers didn’t get permission to break Pa. outdoor capacity limits, Gov. Wolf’s office says”

if only they had trashed the place and set it on fire during a “peaceful” protest they wouldn’t have needed “permission” ...

Yeah, so they should have burned and looted the place and then there would be no problem, right?

They didn’t ask permission.
Unlike Wolfie, they are all adults capable of managing their own lives

This rally was well publicized ahead of time. Trump rallies have always drawn hugh crowds.

Shirley the RAT gov of PA and his minions knew ahead of time this rally would violate ‘Pa. outdoor capacity limits.’ Given that, where were the authorities at the time the crowd began to show up?

"You didn't ask permission!"

"I can't hear your whining over my winning."

Washington Co Republicans had a Trump / Pence rally in Centerville today.

I got there late but they said they had quite a turn out.

Probably in excess of 250 which is a lot for out here in the country.

Not a mask in site.

Everybody was White so it will probably be described as a White Nationalist / KKK rally!

And no social distancing!

I saw people shaking hands, hugging, I even saw a Grandmother kiss her grandkids!
