Trump protesters hope to ruin New Hampshire rally: Rally is Thursday night in Manchester, N.H.

President Trump “resisters” are urging people to sabotage his New Hampshire rally this week by reserving free tickets and leaving the seats empty, instead protesting outside the Manchester arena — a strategy political operatives on both sides say won’t hurt Trump, and could backfire.

Sergio Siano, who describes himself as a progressive and a democratic socialist on social media, tweeted over the weekend about Trump’s rally this coming Thursday: “Let’s hit him where it hurts: his rally attendance. Book your two free tickets to Trump’s New Hampshire rally, don’t attend, and join us in protesting outside. Let’s make this go viral!”

Siano’s tweet surpassed 10,000 retweets and 15,000 likes Sunday afternoon.

“Good job #Resisters, this is going even better than I expected,” the New York resident wrote in response to the viral post. “Let’s keep it up! I want the venue at least half empty!”

People can reserve two tickets per phone number for the Thursday night rally at the SNHU Arena in Manchester — with seating capacity ranging from 10,050 for end-stage concerts to 11,770 for center-stage concerts, according to the venue’s website.

That is because POTUS is smart and has more tickets printed than there is room for and it is first come first served.

Funny how nobody has to engage in subterfuge to create poorly attended demonicRAT rallies.

Media doesn’t report these political tricks in a negative manner.

Somehow I get visions of a speedy roadrunner and a clumsy coyote.

I think this is simple.

The Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act, enacted in 28 U.S.C. § 994 note Sec. 280003, requires the United States Sentencing Commission to increase the penalties for hate crimes committed on the basis of the actual or perceived race, color, religion, national origin, ethnicity, or gender of any person.

National Origin discrimination involves treating people unfavorably because they are from a particular country or part of the world. Americans are nationals and citizens of the United States of America with the right to exercise free speech privileges within their country based upon the first amendment and other guarantees within the Constitution.

Deduction: anyone that attempts to disrupt or cease the efforts toward the exercise of free speech is guilty of a hate crime based upon the definition of nation origin. If any are caught, extend their confinement accordingly by law. And since this is upon such a grand scale, thousands, the sentence should be levied accordingly.

The Dems never offer anything positive, everything they do is designed to agitate, upset and destroy - really a bunch of losers.

LOL, people waiting outside will find the empty seats if there are any. I fear that these crazy haters will resort to setting the parking lots on fire. They only want to divide the country. Its too bad we can’t create a special state for these nuts so they can form a government all to themselves. Ooooops, we do have one, its called California? A new Yorker sticking his nose into NH? So what else is new?

Since people show up hours before a rally, I’m sure they know how many are in line by the start time. The venue I went to could have been filled 3 times People drive long distances for these rallies. I hope everyone has a wonderful time.

It won't work because the tickets themselves are meaningless.

At my first Trump rally, I carefully printed my tickets before going and waited in line for six hours to get in. When the doors opened, they put us through security and let so many in according to fire marshal rules of the venue. Nobody ever asked to see the tickets and thousands were left waiting outside.

In order for the protesters to pull this off, they have to wait hours in line outside. Typically only die-hard Trumpers are willing to do that. Even if enough of them had the discipline to wait in line and got in to stage a walk-out of some sort, as I said, there will be thousands more outside eagerly waiting to take their spots.

There will be no empty seats at a Trump rally.

When this doesn’t work ,again, they are going to get more aggressive. How it will manifest l don’t know but l expect things to get very ugly. The only thngb keeping a lid on this is all the polls that have Trump behind. Keep your powder dry friends.

“In order for the protesters to pull this off, they have to wait hours in line outside.”

Can you even imagine the Rats getting off their lazy asses to get in line 24 hours before the doors open? The up side could be that, if surrounded by Trump patriots, they might learn something and be converted.
