Disruptive Protesters at Trump Rally Force Campaign to Cancel Outdoor Speeches

President Trump spoke at a campaign rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma, on Saturday. The president had planned to speak to supporters outside the BOK Center, a 19,000-seat arena, due to limited capacity inside the venue. But campaign officials said they were forced to cancel outside remarks by both President Trump and Vice President Pence due to interference from protesters.

"President Trump is rallying in Tulsa with thousands of energetic supporters, a stark contrast to the sleepy campaign being run by Joe Biden from his basement in Delaware," said Trump campaign Communications Director Tim Murtaugh in a statement. "Sadly, protesters interfered with supporters, even blocking access to the metal detectors, which prevented people from entering the rally. Radical protesters, coupled with a relentless onslaught from the media, attempted to frighten off the president’s supporters. We are proud of the thousands who stuck it out."

I was reading here. My wife started crying when she saw the poor showing at the arena. I had to turn it off.

O.K. snowflake!

We'll count on you being there for Trump the fifth Thursday of the next millennium.

Thanks to TV and the Internet Trump's speech got out to close to 100-MILLION Americans.

Sorry, I can do without false info. If you like it, knock yourself out.

Since the LEFT and YOU so desperately want the 88-MILLION to NOT be TRUE... THEN I"LL DO WHAT YOU AND THE LEFT DO CONSTANTLY... I'll tell you the opposite.

IT'S TRUE.. NEARLY 100-MILLION SAW TRUMP'S SPEECH!

YES.. THAT'S RIGHT!

I can do without YOUR false info too. If you DON'T like it, knock yourself out DUMBO.

That's MY STORY and I'M STICKIN' TO IT!

Trump is fine. His speech was great & defeatism will fail again in 2020 as it did in 2016!

I think it was lame and I think it will be rubbed in our face for a week.

"You win a few.. you lose a few.. and some get rained out"

"Welcome my friends to the show that never ends!"

TRUMP WILL PREVAIL... and HE'LL BE RE-ELECTED!

If your response to my last statement is not "AGREED" or "AMEN"... then we KNOW where you stand and which side you're on!

I just don’t understand the paranoia over this little virus

Hey young lady.. the people you refer to are so FRIGHTENED of DEATH that they're really NOT LIVING LIFE.

In cruder terms it's referred to as.. "scared $hitless!"

There were not enough people outside for a speech.
All those people were brought in for the big speech.
And there just were not that many people — protesting or otherwise.

Fire Brad and move on, or get ready for weeks of arguments about phony numbers of rally=goers and protesters.

I thought PDJT and Tulsa had prepared for this situation, and Trump said it wouldn’t happen.

Almost no one wore a mask. Fauci is chomping at the bit and will get those testers busy to get those numbers up.

Get a grip.
When I saw the 88 million figure someone posted I thought that would be great,but highly unlikely, especially if you pay attention to ratings and data.I was disappointed when I searched for verification and there was none. False information isn’t going to help Trump.
Reality sucks sometimes.

News cycles move very fast.

The next Trump rally is coming very soon.. Tulsa is over and followed by events in Florida, Arizona and North Carolina..

Tulsa is already gone and will be forgotten quickly.

The thugs and savages were protesting outside keeping supporters from entering the arena!!
