1. Metal detector count had 12,000 inside the hall for the rally.
2. The first of all declared a state of emergency then a curfew.
3. Those who had been in line were asked to leave after the curfew was declared. Some may have gonr home and never returned.
4. Antifa/BLM thugs blocked off at least one of the main entrances to the hall preventing thousands from getting in.
5. It's perfectly reasonable to assume that quite a few of those who had booked tickets decided to stay home when:
a) The state of emergency and curfew were declared
b) They saw the commotion/disruption from the Antifa/BLM thugs.
Going forward, the campaign is going to have to ro better on the security front so rally attendees can safely attend without having to go through Antifa / BLM terrorists.
Irrespective of all that, the rally was spectacular. it will probably end up with more online views than any political rally in recent times. That is what counts.
