So according to them, very few people actually showed up and the fake ticket reservations weren't a factor because it's a well known trick.

Huh

That's... Even worse

Still great that relatively few people actually showed up wrt the pandemic.

This is what I said in a couple topics. We can't know how much those tickets did or didn't affect attendance, just that attendance was obviously very low.

I wouldn't expect the same for Jacksonville, which is especially unfortunate considering they have almost 2700 confirmed active cases of corona (half the national average, per population, but higher per county). They're on a small uptick, but tourism is driving Florida numbers up every day.

It would be funny if Biden does a virtual rally to counter Trump and they get more viewers than the people who attended the trump rally

His non pandemic rally had less attendance than this.

That has nothing to do with hacking. This guy is immediately discredited.

I don't think the Trump campaign has much credibility in the first place, but the overall point is that they're actually trying to discredit an easy excuse for why the rally attendance was so low and essentially just making the point that relatively few people actually showed up.

Cool, so the cutesy storyline isn't really indicative of what actually happened, inwhich only 6,000 Red hats wanted to go to your stupid ass MAGA rally.

We thought in 2016 that you had to be a literal tree stump to lose to Donald Trump. Maybe Joe Biden can be that tree stump? God, why can't the Democrats put forth a decent candidate? I feel we're just waiting until AOC decides to throw her hat in.

Going to a rally to watch a political candidate or leader just hype up a crowd is so bizarre to me as an Australian.

Lmao, AOC is not the decent candidate they need.

If you think AOC is even a possibility in the next decade I honestly have no faith in the Democratic Party.

Most people use it to talk about what they plan to do and why you should vote for them. Trump's rallies are not normal

well, seeing that they were accepting around 1mil reservations for a stadium that could seat 20k its pretty obvious it was a 'first come, first serve' sort of deal. so its fairly obvious the reservations did nothing except ramp up their campaign's expectations.

I can hear the conversation with the event planner now

Planner: Mr Trump we have seating for about 20,000 people.

Trump: We should plan for about a million! Lets have something set up outside too! Something big and great!

Planner: we can put up something that could probably accommodate a couple of thousand more people.

Trump: Can you believe it? A million people. Thats a good number. A great number, right? A million.......

Planner: *who the fuck mans is this?*
