Trump’s Tulsa Rally Fizzles as Seats Go Empty

TULSA, Okla. — President Trump’s attempt to revive his re-election campaign sputtered badly on Saturday night as he traveled to Tulsa for his first mass rally in months and found a far smaller crowd than his aides had promised him, then delivered a disjointed speech that did not address the multiple crises facing the nation or scandals battering him in Washington.

The weakness of Mr. Trump’s drawing power and political skills, in a state that voted for him overwhelmingly and in a format that he favors, raised new questions about his electoral prospects for a second term at a time when his poll numbers were already falling. And rather than speak to the wide cross-section of Americans who say they are concerned about police violence and systemic racism, he continued to use racist language, describing the coronavirus as “Kung Flu.”

the 19,000-seat BOK Center was at least one-third empty during the rally.

In other news not reported by the fake news Biden only needs 5000 more rallies to equal the size of this sparse Trump rally.

It’s disturbing that Trump’s campaign got caught off guard by the Tik You thing. From here on out they need a full time Dirty Tricks Rapid Response Team.

Where’s the photo of the Biden “rally” with only 2 people sitting - inside their social distancing circles - in a school gymnasium?

Remember folks, it’s not what your own eyes tell you, it’s what the media tells you.

The size of the rallies won’t matter, its about the number of rallies. Trump just needs to keep having them, no matter the crowd size.

Biden doesn’t want to campaign, he wants to hide until Nov.3. He wants all the negative media coverage on Trump, so he can sneak into the White House, without doing much.
