In the aftermath of Trump’s rally over the weekend that failed to draw the large crowds the campaign boasted about, “Fox & Friends” hosts admitted on Monday that convening an indoor rally amid a pandemic that has seen recent spikes across the country may not have been the best idea.
Trump has a size problem.
Gee I wonder. Maybe it’s the same idiot who thinks that no testing means no virus?
Doocey is an odd one. The man is so utterly stupid it is mindboggling, but he of the three on the show seems to once in a while accidentally alight on something sensical to say…no doubt promptly followed by abject nonsense, but nonetheless…
How do you think he survived his own personal Vietnam without getting diagnosed with a STD…
TPM: Please be a little more accurate in your descriptions. Reality in brackets.
The upper section of the arena is seen partially [almost completely] empty as US President Donald Trump speaks
fewer than 6,500 people actually showed up — filling the BOK Center to just about half [one third] its capacity.
He’s too dumb to follow the Fox script, so he veers off into the realm of truth now and then.
Hopefully they are already running that spot in DC during Fox & Friends. It makes for a great meta-narrative…
I wouldnt quite go there. It absolves Trump of the evil that he really does know it doesnt mean no virus and just doesnt care because hes so selfserving.
How about this F&F
You’re fucking clueless
You’ve been inside that Bubble so long you believe your own Bullshit
The next rally will be the same, people are over it
Crashed Economy
120 k dead
total mismanagement
You broke it You own it
Has anybody completed a review of Fox and Friends comments before the event? Bet that could be enlightening. They were probably for it before they were questioning it.
Here is what I find interesting. When Trump supporters are given the opportunity to put their asses on the line to prove the mask wearing libtards are wrong, they stay away in droves. The reaction of the Trumpers who didn’t attend the rally is exactly why the current “let the virus wash over America” plan won’t work in time to save either Trump or the economy. When an individual figures his life is on the line he is going to do as much as he can as long as he can to save his own ass.
Right? It’s like trying to put a GPS in a bumpercar.
I can just hear Linda’s voice now (my friends and I always call her Linda)…“in 100 yards, prepare to turn left…turn left…turn right…recalculating…turn right…turn right…recalculating…recalculating…recalculating…turn right…calling emergency services…”
It’s maddening when the media says the arena was 2/3rds full or 1/2… they just need to do the math and be accurate.
Or cite the official tally every fire department in the country would keep…
Agreed, it’s maddening. The fire marshals stated 6,200 attendees had entered the gates. Arena capacity is 19,200. This isn’t hard math even for the lazy.
“I don’t know who thought it was a good idea to put 20,000 people in a room with masks optional,” he said, in spite of repeated calls from critics, who, ahead of Saturday’s rally, cautioned the president’s team to rethink the indoor event.
I know! I know the answer! Call on me! I know!
Maybe people didn’t want to stand in the heat and humidity for hours waiting to get into an arena that the campaign kept telling them was over capacity. Or…and bear with me here…maybe the fact that in deep red Oklahoma he couldn’t even fill an arena that sold out Sha Na Na, more people came out to see Bowser than came out to see Donnie, and a lot of the people who did attend weren’t from Oklahoma at all. The news kept featuring people who, like some kind of Deadheads from Hell, have gone to 19 Trump rallies and live in Boston or St. Louis or other places that were definitely not Oklahoma.
A NASCAR track? But NASCAR has banned Confederate flags!!! That will really bum out his base.
Joe Scarborough used a great analogy – “We wouldn’t have all these pregnancies if we stopped using pregnancy tests”
It’s a toss-up between Trump or Parscale.
The folks that went along with it after it was suggested are now also complicit.
co-host Kilmeade said. “Let’s be honest, as experienced as anyone is, no one has ever been through a campaign with a pandemic and civil unrest, two things out of control of Democrats and Republicans.”
I beg to differ. Civil unrest is largely a result of republikkkan policies which are designed to promote hatred and intolerance among their base (as well as among law enforcement professionals). The fascistgop does not get a pass on civil unrest.
