Mostly fake news. Thousands attending the rally were not allowed access by police.

Unnamed sources. CNN and NYT used as credible reporting. Benson is not particularly bright.

Bullcorn. When I was coaching HS baseball and we won a squeaker that should’ve been a blowout, I railed on my kids, telling them that if they’d have been playing arch-rival __________, they’d have had their asses handed to them.

This same kind of reporting would’ve headlined “Local HS Coach to Shake Up Lineup Following Debacle Win”.

Tulsa, like the nationwide re-openings, represents a populace sticking its collective toe in the water. Next outing will look more like ankle-deep, then knee-deep, waist-deep and finally back to doing the backstroke again. Tulsa was a bold foray into a strong headwind.

So, 6200 claimed as attending by the Fire Marshall while the count of those passing thru the metal detector is over 12,000? It seems one is an estimate while the other is an actual tabulation. Why is the “guess” reported as fact?

There were and there continue to be China Virus warnings and along with that warnings of violence so it is not a surprise many chose the safety of their homes where they can (and did) watch the president.

AS for the polls? They may in fact be true as far as the demographic numbers used. If a pollster uses an oversampling of one group over another than the results will necessarily skew towards that group.

For some reason many here (some likely trolls despite being long time registrants) love to report stories like this and they all follow the same form. References are made ti “insiders” who all seem to have the magical ability to read the mind of the President and assess his feelings.

A rally is to pump up enthusiasm and spread the message to as many as possible. Well it seems as if the President has reached over 10 MILLION people with his speech and yet many claim the Rally was a flop?

I personally have never attended a Trump Rally but I have watched all of them and I promise you each time I do I am both enthused and uplifted by the President.

The mistake made was by making a big deal over the requests even though they probably were accurate and then playing up the expected attendance. It is always better to under promise and over perform than the opposite.

I don’t think any harm was done in the long term and it still remains that his Rally was seen by millions and millions of people. How many have viewed Bidens “Rally’s”? Do we have any numbers? Is it not weird the media makes such a big deal over Trumps “low turnout” without also comparing it with Biden’s literally non existent turnout? Not really and the question was rhetorical in any case.

The Rove crowd is *desperate* to get rid of the extremely effective Parscale.

One would need to dig into the campaign staffers deeply to see who noised about the 1 million ticket requests number: recall too that if a million people requested tickets for a 19,000 seat venue...and then the Governor called a curfew two days before, and there were bussed-in rioters keeping attendees from being able to reach the screeners before being let in — this reeks of “all stops pulled out” dirty tricks: and all they could do was have half the upper deck empty.

Compare that to the over-the-top enthusiasm (by the press) at Biden’s Bargain Basement Remnants.

10 million plus viewers is a flop?

Guy (the Gay) Benson has hated Trump from Day One.

I don’t believe any of this. Over the past 3 years Trump has used cheese in the maze “Jared & Ivanka vs Bannon,” *Jared and Ivanka vs Parscale” to distract from genuine forward movement on policy issues.

the source said.

Often if 'a source' won't go on the record it means it's the lefty one desk over in a newsroom making a guess...

They would love the President Trump to dump Brad. He is one of the most valuable assets Trump has, but he needs additional help because this is going to be a particularly ugly fight.

I don’t accept the premise of this article that it was a massive disappointment — that’s the line from the Left. It was an enormous social media success, which is the more important fact from this event.

Now this is Fake News. Trump supporters (unless I'm alone in this) do not think the rally was a "flop", that's the media talking.

But where are the media talking about Biden's low attraction numbers? Hmmmmmmm?

I hate weasel words.

The door counter had 12,000+ while the “estimate” by the Fire Marshal had the number at 6,000.

“Unnamed sources” is another pet peeve. We know the Trump administration is riddled with traitors. Take anything second hand with a huge grain of salt.

I went to the Trump Rally in Rio Rancho. It was full with an overflow crowd outside. At about 8:00pm there was a weather service severe thunderstorm alert. Many of the attendees had driven hours to attend and had stood outside in the New Mexico heat all day. Probably about 10% of the attendees left early to get ahead of the incoming storm. I saw presstitudes go running into the stands to take photos of empty seats. I said at the time that they are going to claim it was poorly attended. I was right.

The narrative has been set...Trump can’t fill up venues.

Come on! Anybody that believed that 1M ticket thing was stupid and delusional. He had what about 6000-8000 people in the arena? that’s more than Gropin’ Joe has had show up for any of his events since he signed up as a candidate. It’s probably more than he gets on-line during his time events.

Reportedly Trump’s rally had a million+ on-line followers.

Thank God the famous “conservative” Guy Benson had the sense to add the last MOST IMPORTANT SENTENCE to this drivel, which I did not read, because I’m tired of the Guy Bensons using big words to say nothing.

NONSENSE!!!

Total BULLSHIRT!

The rally was a YUGE success! (in person and ONLINE/TV)

Don’t be fooled by this CRAP!

The only thing they should be mad about is the stealing of tickets by the left.

Trump needs to stick to the speech and stop the long stories. The Boeing one was painfully long and unnecessary. A 2 hour speech is an hour too long. His message got lost with the focus on drinking water and walking down ramps.

He should be challenging Biden, put him on the defensive. Biden is in his basement getting a free pass. Why come out when no one is demanding it?
