The advance request for a ticket allows Trump campaign to gather your email and other information. If people just showed up, the campaign would not be able to milk all that data for future.

Just a $1 on a credit card like the post office does to verify identity

Refund upon collecting ticket .
That will end all scams .

Tik Tak is a commie Chinese app .
Figures the left would be using it .
How many commie Chinese and foreign terror groups used to
mask there motives .

Why would Trump staff allow a Commie Chinese app ?

True..I agree with that..have it at an outdoor arena, like a stadium or something..I think people would feel MUCH more comfortable being outside than confined in a closed arena..were some ticket sales total BS, absolutely, but 1M, absolutely NOT, my guess, maybe 200K were fake, the rest were legit..there was NO way 1M people would show up to an event that holds 19,000 people..would I bother showing up if I knew that it was already sold out, probably not

Your suggestion would collect lots of bogus email addresses and other bogus info. By issuing advance ticket to your email ensures collection of valid emails.

But the venue should be open to non-ticket holders as well and advertise that so people know.

If you want to stop the yutes from disrupting this by getting tickets then just write everything in cursive and not one of them will be able to understand it.

So, they allied with the chinese communists to organize and coordinate an attack on our political process and interfere with an American presidential election.

Does that define TREASON?

why issue tickets in advance?

Just announce the place, date and time of the rally and whomever shows up gets in, space permitting.

These rallies are more about data collection for voters than 19,000 people cheering in an arena.

Yes, they are fun to watch and they generate enthusiasm, but they generate new voter information and voters.

Do you think that would be a problem? I must be naive. I can’t see being a Trump supporter, liking the president so much, standing in line for hours, but handing in false information.

In any case, not much good having a valid email that belongs to a ne’er-do-well leftist.

if a right wing group does this for a biden rally- and only 10 of his 15 supporters shows up to the rally- the left will go mental and demand an investigation into ‘election tampering’ (or some such election interference term) be made-

“.....Hundreds of teenage TikTok users and K-pop fans”

Made a million requests?

Does anyone do math anymore?

Yes, it just proves that yutes can manipulate social media with spoofing techniques.

People have been doing it for years with email and twatter and fakebook.

Yes.

From Wikipedia: TikTok is a Chinese video-sharing social networking service owned by ByteDance, a Beijing-based internet technology company founded in 2012 by Zhang Yiming.

The process tracks people.

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