So … the Trumps are going?

Not sure I’d call them an organized group.

Police said the curfew means the scores of Trump supporters who have camped in parking lots and on sidewalks outside ahead of Saturday night’s rally at the 19,000-seat arena must leave the area during the curfew or face possible arrest.

Cram those stupid Trump supporters in like sardines. With any luck at all a substantial portion of them will catch Covid19 and be gone by Election Day.

This is gonna be a clusterfuck. I hope I’m wrong, but I have a feeling at least one person will end the weekend with a gunshot wound.

Not delusional. The chart runs up until today, and there’s nothing after it, so clearly it’ll be gone tomorrow.

Undoubtedly hundreds if not thousands intended to arrive the night before the rally and camp out on sidewalks and side streets, skipping the need to find or reserve a hotel room. Just where the hell are they going to go at 10PM tonight?
