🚨 POLL: Should Trump restart his rallies?

Only Valid Emails Have Vote Counted

According to the President, nearly 1 million MAGA supporters requested tickets to the Trump Rally in Tulsa.

Trump took to Twitter to announce the news.

“Almost One Million people request tickets for the Saturday Night Rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma!” Trump wrote on Twitter on June 15.

“Just passed 800,000 tickets,” campaign manager Brad Parscale tweeted on Sunday. “Biggest data haul and rally signup of all time by 10x. Saturday is going to be amazing!”

Pascale also tweeted that the campaign is making an effort to add a second event in order to accommodate the masses that want to see President Trump.

“Before entering, each guest will get: temperature check, hand sanitizer, mask,” Parscale tweeted. “There will be precautions for the heat and bottled water as well.”

Of course, Democrats are spewing false outrage, claiming that Trump’s rally will create a resurgence of the coronavirus, despite the fact that millions of people have gathered in masses across the nation in protests over the death of George Floyd.

“The president’s plan to hold mass rallies in Florida and elsewhere as we experience a resurgence in COVID cases is irresponsible and selfish,” Rep. Val Demings (D-FL) said on Thursday.

“The Far Left Fake News Media, which had no COVID problem with the Rioters & Looters destroying Democrat-run cities, is trying to COVID Shame us on our big Rallies. Won’t work!” Trump wrote on Twitter.

On June 15, twice-failed presidential nominee Bernie Sanders tweeted, “Congratulations to all who are out on the streets today peacefully protesting. Together, we will end police brutality. Together, we will defeat Trump. Together, we will fight for a government based on justice and compassion, not greed and lies.”

But quickly changed tune once he heard about the Trump rally.

“Trump wants 15,000 delegates cheering him at his GOP convention in Florida,” Sanders said. “No social distancing. His rejection of medical advice endangers not only those there but those they come in contact with. Trump’s a threat to the health and well-being of the country. He must be defeated.”

“Unfortunately, Florida is experiencing a new surge in COVID-19 cases. I urge you to do everything you can to protect yourself and your neighbors. Wear a mask. Limit gatherings,” she wrote.

The president plans a slew of re-election campaign rallies, mostly in swing states, starting Saturday. After Oklahoma, Trump will then hold rallies in Florida, Texas, North Carolina, and Arizona, the dates of which have not yet been released. Three of those are considered swing states, although political pollsters say Texas still looks like a red state, at least for 2020.
