Yeah but they probably rail against “other people” getting it and say things like “keep the government out of my healthcare” while on Medicaid/Medicare 

My 70+ y.o. parents are very against the government having any involvement in health care.  It’s socialism.  Except for Medicare, they’re ok with that.

Weird he picked this shithole state for his rally.  Not really.  Mouth breathers galore.  Here for the lulz.  

Actually, it makes a lot of since.  Unlike Florida and Texas and some of the other Southern states, at the time it was picked, it wasn't heavily trending up in covid cases, or wasn't predicted to.

Of course, now it's trending up.  And the head of the Tulsa Health Department is asking people who attend to self-isolate for two weeks, and get tested after the rally.

Need to set a calendar entry to come back in a week or two and check https://coronavirus.1point3acres.com for the Oklahoma stats.

This’ll be tough to pinpoint just Oklahoma. I bet attendees are from all over the country

Just got done watching the Shelia Buck footage. This event is private, right? Or is a campaign rally considered a public forum where you can't be removed simply for the content of your speech?

I don't know if that's how it works anymore. Too much public forum vs publisher vs first amendment nonsense going on lately.

I mean, she had a ticket to be there and is a resident of Tulsa? Not sure how a trespassing arrest is justified

C-SPAN has a feed from inside the rally.  It is currently showing the My Pillow guy taking selfies with guests on the floor while "Hey Jude" plays, everyone sways and John Lennon rolls over in his grave...

Be nice to lock them in there, play "afternoon delight" on repeat.

BTW, I screwed that one up ... Paul wrote Hey Jude but John's still pissed that it's playing at a Trump rally.  The song after that was "We are the Champions" so add Freddie to the pissed off list...

That mouth breather waited outside for four days when she could’ve shown up 10 minutes before it started and walked right in. 

900,000 tickets!!!  
 

*880,000 allotted for Seymour Butts, Homer Sexual, IP Freely, and Mike Rotch

This trope is catching up with the person on their iphone while checking out with their foodstamp card

Meh, somebody there is gonna get pissed that nothing happened and they gonna start some shit.  Night ain't over yet, not by a damn sight...as they say.  

8:15p local time in Tulsa.  Still time to make one more bad decision

a) lets wait until everyone leaves the area before we're confident that it turned into nothing

b) talk on interwebs about a mass zoomer effort to get tickets with no intention of coming. I'm curious how much that is an actual... meaningful reality versus maybe reduced enthusiasm and probably a lot of "going to this is a horrible idea based on any kind of reasoning that calculates self preservation". either way this will probably drive up the unemployment numbers for professional white house staffers
