So let’s put this in perspective.

1,000,000 ticket requests
300,000 “fake or trolls”


That means 700,000 legit requests for a political rally.


Yeah I’d say even with the fake ones that’s pretty damn high enthusiasm

Fake requests must have received an inordinate amount of consideration given that there were about 20,000 actual seats and less than 10,000 people the fake requests were far more likely to get a ticket than a sincere request, of course if the number was actually 1 million, 700K of who would have actually shown up, which is of course ridiculous because just as many people on the right requested tickets with no intention of going to make the event look legitimate as those on the left did to de-legitimize the event.

It’s just like when sports teams claim a sellout but the place is half full

I’m still trying to figure out what this supposedly accomplished.

Maybe it was a funny troll, but likely only motivated Trump voters even more.

Kind of a lose-lose for the prog side.

700,000 requests and only 6,200 in actual attendance. That’s like saying you want to go to war, but you are too lazy to get off the sofa. Nice moral victory, tho.

The way to combat this is to have a line of people without tickets who want to get in who will be let in an hour prior to the beginning of event with the understanding that if you have tickets and aren't in line to enter with a ticket an hour ahead of time you are shite out of luck. This is not a show or a sporting event....it is a show of support for a campaign...if the campaign needs you in the arena an hour early then by god get in the arena an hour early or don't get in at all....half empty arenas are a bad look especially when the opposition is claiming to have brought on the half empty arena.

The “tickets” don’t matter. It’s first come first served. They don’t ask for tickets at the door, so the ticket requests are meaningless

No, I did not expect 1,000,000 in Tulsa, but what point is the OP trying to make by saying that 700k expressed a genuine desire to attend, and only 6,200 attended?

I still can't get over how this is the left's biggest win in 4 years.

How long y'all plan on celebrating this one?

Not celebrating, just scratching my head on how this is a positive thing. Think about. 700,000 legitimate requests, 6,200 actually attendees. And that is a positive?

6,200 who fought their way through the shite heads outside. It is still 6,190 more than Biden draws.

Let's just ignore the >1MM watching online though.

Why did only 6k show up for a 19k arena?

If 700k registered...

6,200. Don’t diminish their already evaporating numbers that they are so proud of.

Its a dumb narrative. At the end of the day, about 12k people showedup in the middle of a pandemic, with violent thugs blocking entry, to see Trump speak.
Millions more were home streaming it.

The Tulsa police chief said that the protestors were well behaved. The Wall St Journal said that their reporters didn’t see anyone badly harassing anybody. But go ahead and believe what you want if it makes you feel better.

I’m willing to bet that many people didn’t show up bc of the “BLM PROTEST” scheduled for the same day. If a rally were near my area, I’d request tickets and plan to attend. But if a “protest” were scheduled near the rally, no way I’d go. It only takes one of those stupid mother frickers to make the wrong move and ruin your life. Not worth it. But NOTHING will stop me getting to the voting booth come November.

Do you watch TV?

Who would put themselves or their family through that?
