Star Member CurtEastPoint (11,795 posts) 1. Oh, I agree. Both inside and I've a feeling that yes, even OK, will give them some shit outside!
sop (2,855 posts) 7. Unfortunately, like every Trump event that promises to be a train wreck of massive proportions, the entire Tulsa disaster will be covered live by every news organization, start to finish on prime time. They can't help themselves. The aftermath could prove to be Trump's undoing.
Star Member Cousin Dupree (1,505 posts) 14. I think it's going to be cancelled. Just a gut feeling.

luvs2sing (707 posts) 18. I hope it is cancelled.My friends in Tulsa are absolutely beside themselves that this is happening and happening so close to Greenwood. There is a lot of fear of what the trump crowd may decide to do.
Star Member regnaD kciN (21,100 posts) 24. If it is, will we even know about it...?If you're talking about it being a hotbed for COVID transmission...keep in mind that it will be a week or two before we start seeing cases turn up. And will anyone even be watching at that point?The sad fact is, we've reached a point in the U.S. where it seems we've found the level of spread with which we're comfortable. Every day, we get between 18,000 and 25,000 new cases and several hundred new deaths (and, of course, a corresponding number of people "coming off the roles" due to either their aforementioned death or a full recovery). We're essentially flatlining at around the same number of current cases -- neither going up or down much -- but, let's face it, most people aren't being affected by this on a personal level. It's becoming as unreal as the Vietnam daily "body counts" back in the '60s -- sure, there was a pretty high number, but no one you or I know. And, until people have someone close to them (a parent, sibling, or child) fall seriously ill or die from it, it won't be anything more than a number that can be disregarded as we go about our business. Sad, but true...and probably the normal way people process a pandemic when there's nothing that can be done (especially sincethe powers that be don't care to enact exceptional measures to allow us to wait it out) except wait for a vaccine or cure to be developed.
Marie Marie (8,001 posts) 29. All of this shuffling around of dates and venues make me wonder ifthe response for turn out was low. Or maybe it is just wishful thinking on my part.
Trump campaign manager Brad Parscale on Monday said they have received more than 1 million ticket requests for President Trump’s first campaign-style rally since the coronavirus lockdowns slated to take place Saturday.“Over 1M ticket requests for the @realDonaldTrump #MAGA Rally in Tulsa on Saturday,” Parscale tweeted Monday, adding safety guidelines for the event.
Star Member Hamlette (13,979 posts) 30. I predict it will not happen.Not sure what his excuse will be but either it all happens out of doors or it doesn't happen at all.
Star Member ProfessorGAC (39,997 posts) 47. Outdoors!Like the Nuremberg rallies in Triumph of the Will?How appropriate.
Star Member GulfCoast66 (8,919 posts) 58. I think most are missing the biggest way it will be a disaster for trump.He will get up there with his hate, lies, brags and threats. We’ll get the obligatory ‘Lock her up’ chants and all the other shit we have all seen before. It was already losing it appeal last year.But it is a totally different America than it was in February. Shit is seriously ****ed up and need real leadership. People are dying from a Pandemic. Racism is now considered a real problem by a good majority of the people. And over 20% of us are unemployed.His hate rally will hasten the rats jumping the Reality Show his presidency has been.Oh, and all the people that it will kill. Well, sucks to be a sucker.
Ahpook (2,048 posts) 64. I read he mentioned 900k showing upto a place that holds 20k?I mean, wtf is he talking about? How does anyone support this moron?
Star Member Generic Other (26,262 posts) 67. What if protestors show up in massive numbers?Like they did in 2016 in Chicago. Trump canceled his event when that happened.I suspect there are more willing to turn out to boo him than cheer him.

Besides malaise, you suck at predictions.
