When you're a democrat, you know you're candidate can't legitimately win so.....

President Trump’s campaign promised huge crowds at his rally in Tulsa, Okla., on Saturday, but it failed to deliver. Hundreds of teenage TikTok users and K-pop fans say they’re at least partially responsible.
Brad Parscale, the chairman of Mr. Trump’s re-election campaign, posted on Twitter on Monday that the campaign had fielded more than one million ticket requests, but reporters at the event noted the attendance was lower than expected. The campaign also canceled planned events outside the rally for an anticipated overflow crowd that did not materialize.
Tim Murtaugh, a spokesman for the Trump campaign, said protesters stopped supporters from entering the rally, held at the BOK Center, which has a 19,000-seat capacity. Reporters present said there were few protests.
TikTok users and fans of Korean pop music groups claimed to have registered potentially hundreds of thousands of tickets for Mr. Trump’s campaign rally as a prank. After the Trump campaign’s official account @TeamTrump posted a tweet asking supporters to register for free tickets using their phones on June 11, K-pop fan accounts began sharing the information with followers, encouraging them to register for the rally — and then not show.
The trend quickly spread on TikTok, where videos with millions of views instructed viewers to do the same, as CNN reported on Tuesday. “Oh no, I signed up for a Trump rally, and I can’t go,” one woman joked, along with a fake cough, in a TikTok posted on June 15.
Thousands of other users posted similar tweets and videos to TikTok that racked up millions of views. Representatives for TikTok did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

Non refundable fee for reserved tickets for the next rally that should sink these clowns permanently since they don’t like spending any money that isn’t daddy’s or mommy’s
Golly. I guess we better tighten the voting rules — it looks like Trump’s opponents are fine with stuffing ballot boxes if they aren’t watched super carefully. No mail-in ballots!
Teens don’t vote anyway, so even if 100K of them participated in this ticket scheme, it doesn’t mean much come election day.
There is no charge for a ticket but to be admitted you must posses a ticket
why issue tickets in advance?
Just announce the place, date and time of the rally and whomever shows up gets in, space permitting.
“.....Hundreds of teenage TikTok users and K-pop fans”
Made a million requests?
Does anyone do math anymore?
All they proved was the case against voting by mail. Congrats morons, you shot your load again a little too early
I defy Biden to do better.
I only recently came across Tik Tok since it was on a new phone purchase. Let’s see: White chicks in bikinis dancing to bad contemporary music, political imagery for the equal of a USA Today — short-attention span reader, BLM videos, pets doing pet things and oh white girls in bikinis. Did I miss anything?
Likely a left-wing Media Matters and Chinese operation they’re trying to act like was a spontaneous kids action.
Just charge 5 bucks a head. Take their money next time and have them in the federal database as a Trump donor.
Are you saying that hundreds ain’t bigger than a million?
Just demonstrates once again that Trump’s opposition is lowlife trash without ethics, standards, morals or honor. They will lie, cheat, steal and traduce any standard of civil disagreement and politics to advance their horrible and repeatedly failed agenda.
RSBN network which broadcasts these rallies since 2016 from their webpage and youtube, says it was their biggest viewership since they began.
Commie central would provide automation of the process.
And ALL of their data has been sent to China, hope they are OK with that..according to Parsale, they already knew that many of these people signing up were bogus they collect their data no matter what..and what does this show, that AOC and her supporters are brain dead idiots with nothing to do in their empty meaningless lives than get tickets for an event they have NO desire to go to..reminds me of a 15 year old kid who orders a bunch of pizzas to be sent to someone’s house as a prank..its something kids do, and that is the mentality of these people, they behave like CHILDREN because mentally they are children..and this is what we are up against, if we dont vote in November, America is GONE, FINISHED, KAPUT, I hope everyone realizes that
When you're a democrat, you know you're candidate can't legitimately win so.....
Next time, charge for tickets..20 bucks per ticket, you dont show up, no money back, that way if they dont arrive fine, Trump still gets the 20 bucks per ticket
Charge a fee for said ticket problem solved even 5 bucks
So NY Times is reporting ChiCom collusion against Trump campaign.
