President Trump’s campaign has moved next week’s rally with Sen. Ted Cruz to a bigger venue in Texas after citing an “unprecedented” demand for tickets.
Trump’s 2020 campaign manager Brad Parscale tweeted the venue change Thursday, saying the response for tickets to Monday’s rally in Houston has been "HUGE and unprecedented."
The campaign rally will now be held at the Toyota Center, which can seat up to 19,000 people for concerts. The previous venue, NRG Arena, holds about 8,000 people.
Trump announced last month he would hold a “major rally” with Cruz at “the biggest stadium in Texas we can find” to help the Texas Republican fend off Rep. Beto O’Rourke, D-Texas, who is running for Cruz's seat in the Senate.

Naw. The typical “disrupters “ are cowards and tend not to show up where they’re badly outnumbered.

This means that downtown is going to be a zoo, especially with Presidential security in force.

I wonder if they’ll have shuttles or if that would help. I hope you get to go, I can’t, so the next best thing would be a report from you. :-)

I read that Beat-Oh is bringing in Bill Ayers to appear at the McAllen Burger King. It's one of the bigger Burger Kings,approved for up to 50 people by the local fire department.

Good move. They were enemies and both of them were mutually insulting. But they’re both practical men and they chose to forgive.

That place is crazy. I was there for the 2015 Cotton Bowl. Amazing. And the Rangers stadium right next door was no slouch, either.

The real problem is while President Trump and Cruz are packing an arena, the communist loving Progressive democrats are busy stuffing the ballot boxes with dead voters, felon voters, Criminal trespassing illegal voters.
Based upon the 2016 rallies Trump should have defeated hillary but 30 points. They rigged enough to almost pull off a victory.
