Small venue. I presume that’s because they wanted to make sure they could fill it. Or, maybe there just aren’t facilities in the area with more seating capacity. I’m not sure, but I can’t recall the last time the President rallied for a smaller crowd.
NV is going to be tough to win this year unless its a landslide.
So maybe Trump’s campaign feels its winnable but more likely keeping Democrats busy defending their turf so they can’t make trouble elsewhere.
Indeed. My wife and I were just commenting that in 2016 we saw Donald Trump speak at a car dealership in NH. With Jeff Sessions. At the time, it seemed like a very respectable crowd. But, still, it was a car dealership. I'll never see the man in a small venue like that again.
The Thomas and Mack arena is site for UNLV basketball games and concerts. Must be a scheduling issue.
Back in the 80’s, I was somewhat associated with the concert scene, mostly from a video production angle. These large venues are booked months, even years in advance.
You can’t just decide to have a rally next week, or even next month, and expect to get any kind of decent-sized venue.
True, but take heart. I can't recall the last time a Democrat had a personal rally (not an appearance at an event) that ever saw more than 2500.
Or maybe it's a plan to generate a HUMONGOUS overflow crowd that will give the Democrats fits.
I'm thinking tens of thousands of tourists are going to flood the convention center and its surroundings just out of curiosity.
IMHO, a major security concern, which might explain the smaller than normal venue. There must be a secret passage there to get POTUS out of there quickly.
