Did a bunch of teenagers punk the Trump campaign?

@Loki I think Loki the reason that it becomes "news" is that in the past, President Trump always has played up the size of the crowds, asked the camera man there to show how the arena was filled to the very top. It is one of his talking points.
As me (and many others on this forum board) have said, President Trump is his own worst enemy.
Did you watch the event?

Trump had a big day at West Point and the only thing the media would report on are two fake news events, the water and his walking.
That’s just how bad things have gotten and that is living proof that the media has sworn itself even to the point of making stuff up to tell lies.
Why bother reading it anymore to understand?

But were the tickets really reserved? I thought I read somewhere that they were giving out unlimited tickets. The "reserved" ticket gave you a possible option to enter the rally, but not a guarantee.
That is why the President Trump campaign were saying that they had over one million tickets requested.
I suppose tickets weren’t reserved, so the kids didn’t prevent anyone from going who wanted to go.
It did get the campaign to hype up the size of the crowd, build outdoor overflow stadium seating, and plan a second speech for the outdoor folks.
So they punked the campaign without actually interfering with anyone’s ability to see the event.
Nicely done!

Good points. I would never go to an indoor nor outdoor rally where people weren’t socially distancing and my gut was that most people regardless of political affiliation wouldn’t either. But the “data” suggested otherwise and I thought, huh? Now we know how it was engineered.
In this ugly war remember however that punking works multiple ways so don’t take umbrage when it happens to Biden.
These violent delights have violent ends.

Violent? Reserving a ticket online?
-
I know. We all look alike to you.
-
I get that, it was the reference to violence that was curious.
Either he’s aping the woke and labels everything he doesn’t like to be violence, or more likely, it’s all one homogeneous (CNN-adoring) outgroup to him.

I wonder how they’ll avoid this in the future.
The main reason for the pre-registration was to allow them to collect Covid waivers. You don’t think they’ll stop doing that, do you? Seems collecting them in person at the door would lead to other problems.

Let's see..
On the one hand, you have people trying to destroy our history, our rule of law, and ultimately our nation, and one political party that defends and encourages them.... United by an ideology that hates religion and consider anyone who believes in God to be a fool, celebrates the genocide of babies, hates white people, does their best to try to stop anyone who disagrees with them from speaking, are violent, burn down businesses, cities.... and all their party leaders are either psychopathic or in the early stages of dementia.....
On the other hand you have people who want to protect our history, our nation, believes in God, doesnt want to murder babies, doesnt want racial division, believes in free speech, are peaceful, etc...
And you mock their party leader at every opportunity, even to the point of making fun of how he drinks water from a bottle because he doesn't want it to drip on his silk tie..
And you consider yourself to be an intelligent, rational thinker.....
I pity you and weep for the future of this nation.
