A fire department official in Manchester, New Hampshire, has confirmed President Donald Trump’s claim to have smashed attendance records at his rally at the SNHU Arena last Thursday, contradicting fake news about “empty seats.” Trump proclaimed last Friday that his rally, which filled the 11,700-seat arena and left thousands more supporters outside, had broken Elton John’s attendance record for the venue.

The leftist media lied as they always do. The leftist media is our enemy. They are constantly executing an information warfare campaign against us and the American people. Lying is a standard part of their warfare campaign plan.

The “Arena “ was packed to capacity...The Fire Marshall, following the fire code wisely shut down further entry to rally goers for safety purpose in case of fire. those upper tie seat were empty because those number of folks were allowed to go onto the the arena floor in front of the speaker’s podium. The amazing scene was the over 5,000 people that stood outside of the Arena and watched Trump speak on outdoor TVs. Trumpie drew somewhere between 16,000 & 20,000 supporters...period.

At the same time “Drudge” was crowing about the massive 700 people Democrat, Elizabeth Warren drew to her rally...however that number was corrected later in the dya to only 150 people...the rest were miscounted as media, photographers & reporters. Democrats cannot draw folks in New Hampshire & In in Iowa at the famed Iowa State Fair.

For goodness sake POTUS, Donald J. Trump beat all Democrat candidates by getting the most Corn Kernels in the Corn Kernel POTUS Poll held at the Iowa state Fair!!!

Am hoping POTUS, Trump holds his next Mega/Massive Political rally in Madison Square Garden or, Yankee Stadium (New York City) in support and honor of all our Law Enforcement Folks, First Responders, Firemen, EMTs, AMTS, OR & ER & ICU, Nurses, Doctors, Medical Aides, Hospital Workers, etc., and of course the general public. The goal...rid NYC of Democrat, Low life, Scum & Vermin, Useless, Mayor Bill De Blasio who hates New York Finest Police and Firefighters.....De Blasio needs to be thrown out of office, while he has water & rotten food thrown at him like his dreg supporters have done to the very people the protect them 24/7/365!!! Folks...this is a nationwide problem brought to you by the Obama’s and the entire “Hate America” Democrat Party!!!

Beware American Citizens & Voters...elect Democrats and be cautioned that when you call 911 in emergency crime or fire, etc., no one come to help you!!! Wise up!!! It may cost you or a loved one their life!!! De Blasio must be forced to resign like right now!!!

Press found a couple dozen nose bleed seats empty and took photos of it. My guess is that instead of going to the high nose bleed seats, some people stayed on the floor. They got an accurate entry report, but not everyone was in their seats.

They were looking at empty seats, while ignoring all the people on the ground floor, an area, that I assume does NOT usually hold spectators?

After being in line for hours I’m sure some lines to the restrooms were very long.

#emptyseatMAGAtour trended on Twitter for a few hours. Look for more of this crap in the future. I was at the Orlando rally and even though the Amway Arena was also packed, the local media tried to make a big deal of the fact that by the time Pres Trump arrived not many people were milling around outside, as if to insinuate Trump’s running out of gas. UMMM, maybe it was because the same media was issuing lightning alerts in the area and most of us prefer not to be Darwin Award winners.

I’m just happy to see the article writer spelled “Fire Marshal” correctly- with one L.

That is a fact. I’m sure if there were any empty seats they were filled by the time he started speaking

I hope Trump will also have a couple of rallies in California. It may not change the state’s electoral outcome, but it surely would be fun to see the MSM coverage. As an ex-Californian, I think conservatives would come from all over the state to attend. Heck, why not schedule one for Anaheim Stadium?

People in dark suits with hidden machine guns, owned by the US Government, occupied the upper deck and strictly controlled entrance.

Thank you. I didn't understand why a Fire Marshall would shut down further entry with empty seats in the balcony. Makes total sense if there were so many who didn't have seats and on the floor. Numbers are numbers - capacity is capacity.
