Nothing seems to get under President Donald Trump's skin like an undersized crowd.
That's all the ammunition Arizona activists needed to devise a peaceful protest strategy for Trump's campaign-style rally Tuesday at 7 p.m. at the Phoenix Convention Center.
The plan is simple: Rally-goers must register online for tickets to attend the controversial affair, so activists and social media-users plan to sign up for as many tickets as possible with no intention of attending the actual event. They figure this will leave Trump speaking to a smaller crowd while taking a spot away from actual supporters.
J'aime Morgaine, the founder of Indivisible Kingman, says the "empty seats" rally is the perfect way for her to peacefully protest from roughly 200 miles away.
"I live so far away and it sucks," Morgaine said. "Ninety-eight percent of the core real protest action is down in the basin in Phoenix or Tucson. I love what they do. I support them and run as many solidarity events as I can." [continued]

Trump always has overflow crowds as large as the crowds inside. If there are seats available, they’ll be filled in a blink. The dimwits!
Ah, progressives.
The truth always hurts them, so why not obscure the truth?
A marshmallow education on full dilay.
Flake News.
I don’t think it works that way. The tickets are oversold they aren’t seat specific. I’m also sure many agitators will get in. But Trump offers the tickets directly to his supporters by text, email etc so I’m sure many will get in.
The immaturity of the Left is on full display......how embarrassing!
Oops, display, not dillay.
Ipads are evil.
Crowds of 10 didn’t stop Hillary
Didn’t they try this during the campaign?
Good for them. Good for everybody.
So like everything else about the left, this is another attempt at a manufactured and fake result.
Seems like a risky proposition for a leftist... sign up, get your name info registered by trump’s org...but what if the list is leaked and other leftists see your name and address there and assume you’re secretly a Trumpanzee? Next thing you know, Antifa is crapping in your yard and BLM is burning down the stores around the town square.
Didn’t these hateful libs do this during the general election, yet the crowds still overflowed at the Trump rallies?
Team Trump gives away enough tickets to accommodate this soros-loserman tactic, knowing that the venue will fill up anyways.
Was it during an NFL strike thirty years ago that the media became fixated on how many empty seats there were?
Look for the same thing next week.
I agree with another poster that the overflow will take up any empty seats.
This tactic won’t work. Thousands of Trump supporters will show up and get in without tickets.
Mexico still has an Army, doesn’t it?
And a Navy.
The people that count also know what is going on and have surely been planning for the eventuality since some time during the primaries. It will be countered. It is too obvious and just took the dimwits on the left a long time to conceive of it. Either that or it is not a new tactic and has failed a;ready at previous events. That and many people who could not get tickets will show up anyway and how are the connivers gonna know they accomplished anything?
Here is what I think will happen at this rally. BLM and Antifa will riot, burn cars, and possible the venue. They will try through fire to kill as many as possible so they can get their little war against the United States. The best thing that could happen would be the NG would be called out to combat Antifa and BLM, pitting the two terrorist groups against US troops
“That’s all the ammunition Arizona activists needed to devise a peaceful protest”
It will not be a peaceful protest and they’re doing their best to intimidate supporters to get the numbers down. The timing is very risky but Trump badly needs a BIG night.
these dumbasses don’t realize that the tickets to trump’s rallies are not limited in numbers.
