Oh my! I didn’t realize it was THAT nasty. Thank you for letting me know.

[JudyinCanada]

I think I like the southerner translation lol. Thanks.

[rfp1234]

All your awe are belong to us.

[nicollo]

This is just practice for actual voter fraud on Nov. 2.

[mquinn]

What do you think they’re going to do with the metadata? Is Parscale’s IT team going to erect a vast blacklist if the same people try to register for the next rally?

THAT is the “dream world” scenario, IMO.

[TChad]

Letting people in anonymously... not a great idea.

Anonymously is the only way I would attend a Trump rally.

A requirement that I provide valid personal information to obtain a ticket would be unacceptable. I don't want to be doxxed, and I don't want to be drowned in obnoxious funding requests (as the RNC once did to me).

What happened at this rally will not happen again. We now know that the left will try to inflate the probable attendance at Trump rallys, so people believe they have little chance to get in. We now understand that we should ignore those numbers and just go to the rallies.

WTF are the media acting soooo shocked & surprised & giddy that attendance was below average??!!!

All week they've been fearmongering about COVID19 spreading in the arena!!!

People wanting to be on the safe side just decided not to go! Duh!

[TChad]

People wanting to be on the safe side just decided not to go! Duh!

I'm sure that was a significant factor, but I bet the main disincentive to attending was the expectation that about 50 people would be competing for each indoor seat at the rally.

Why attend a Trump rally in which you can only see Trump on your phone while you stand in a huge outdoor crowd? You have all the COVID risk with no benefit.

[yoe]

Why bless you heart darl’in...

Too bad for the media, MAGA Voters will come out in full force on Election day! They have no idea how HUGE it will be!

95% of those Gary Johnson #NeverTRUMPers will SHOCK the media with TRUMP winning PA, MI & WI handily

[TChad]

rallys > rallies

[DoughtyOne]

To be honest, they rae trying to take credit where credit
isn’t due > IMO.

This is like the Arabs all piling on to take credit after
a terrorist incident.

[Panzerfaust]

Ok I’ll register repeatedly for tickets for all Joe Biden rallies. Two can play at that game. Me and my friends Haywood Jablowme and I.P. Frehley will be at every Sleepy Joe event!!!

[JudyinCanada]

Yoe! Right back atcha, darlin’.

[snarkytart]

over 6 million online i think, and that doesn’t include tv viewers

[If you have submitted some form of contact information,
you are then traceable. If you harm someone in the
audience, they have a better way of tracking you down.

You did something.

No no, i wasn’t even there.

Here’s your ticked request contact info.
Here’s the video of you entering the event.
Well here’s your photo harming someone.

What do you mean you weren’t there?

With these loons ANTIFA and BLM screwing around, we
can’t just ignore strong security and a method of
recourse.]

Having hi-res video, as well as selfie video from attendees, is pretty strong evidence. Anyway:

[Parscale continued, “Registering for a rally means you’ve RSVPed with a cellphone number and we constantly weed out bogus numbers, as we did with tens of thousands at the Tulsa rally, in calculating our possible attendee pool. These phony ticket requests never factor into our thinking. What makes this lame attempt at hacking our events even more foolish is the fact that every rally is general admission—entry is on a first-come-first-served basis and prior registration is not required.”]

[DoughtyOne]

Thanks for your follow-up response.

[CJ Wolf]

love that kpop. lol

these people are pretty, pretty dumb.

[Thanks for your follow-up response.]

Welcome. I know from Freeper attendees that tickets aren’t necessary. But since Parscale reiterated this, I thought I’d pass it along.

[DoughtyOne]

Note that he did talk about phone numbers.

I know that’s true, because I ordered two tickets. I wanted to bump the numbers.

They responded with a code for verification.

That to me was all that was needed.
