President Trump Opa-Locka Rally Draws Large Crowds, Runs Past Miami-Dade (11pm) Curfew
NBC Miami ^ | 11/01/20 | Daniela Flamini

Posted on 11/01/2020 10:00:03 PM PST by Libloather

Large crowds gathered at the Opa-Locka Executive Airport Sunday evening for a rally hosted by President Donald Trump, an event that ran past the county's currently installed curfew of 11 p.m.

Hundreds of supporters were packed into tarmacs, eagerly waiting for the president's arrival. As Trump flew over from Georgia, local Florida politicians were there to stir the crowd, including Congressman Mario Diaz-Balart and Miami-Dade County Mayor Carlos Gimenez.

**SNIP**

Trump's event had originally been scheduled to start at 11:30 p.m., and questions immediately arose about whether attendees would be penalized for violating Miami-Dade County's 11 p.m. curfew.

Miami-Dade Mayor Carlos Gimenez confirmed in a press release Sunday that the county "has confirmed with the RNC, the permit holder for President Trump’s rally planned for the airport in Opa-Locka, that the outdoor event will begin at 9:30 p.m. and is expected to end before midnight."

By the time Trump actually walked on the stage to greet his supporters, though, it was 11:45 p.m.

“As with any other events, the County will continue to enforce the curfew,” Gimenez had said earlier in the day. “We will be flexible, as we have been with recent late-ending sporting events, so that people get home safely.”

Seriously? That’s the best this whining little idiot can come up with to write about?

To hell with Joe Biden getting an under-the-table cut from his influence-peddling son! THAT’S not news. Sniffing little girls (a family tradition that dear little Hunter seems to be carrying on)... nah, nothing to see there. But Trump fans break CURFEW! WOAH! Now THAT’S news!

Looks like someone in the press was forced to do a rewrite. Headline now say thousands attended. Of course the narrative pushed in the story is fear of spreading Covid, but what story pitched by the MSM in the last 8 months isn’t.

Glad headline was corrected but too little too late.

“I was hoping he would mention the cruise industry.”

Yes. He easily could have tied that into the RATs’ Green New Deal, i.e., the GND would end use of gas and oil. GND wants to end cruising and, if possible, flying. (Of course, the RAT elite class would be able to do all those things.)

Biden needs to start renting audience cut outs from stadiums to put in cars for his Rallies then he can go to car lots for his rallies.He would need masks on the cut outs though.

I watched another video yesterday where they called these events, “Rolling Rallies”. Good name.

“It wasnt fair that he couldnrt get huge crowds like President Trump...”

He’s been drawing huge jeering crowds of Trumpers...seems fair to me...

Trump should have done an ad mocking Hillary’s 3am phone call ad.

Only call it a 10 pm phone call

Criminal joe’s largest “crowd” was about one dozen (half of whom were kiss-up biden staffers). LOL. What a pathetic joke.
