Trump held a pre -election rally at a half -empty stadium. It seems that not coronavirus is to blame for everything, but tickcers

US President Donald Trump resumed a pre -election campaign interrupted with the beginning of the Pandemia of Coronavirus. On June 20, he spoke to his supporters at a rally at the covered sports arena of Bok Center in the city of Talsa, Oklahoma.

At the beginning of the week, the press secretary of the Trump’s campaign headquarters Brad Parskeil said that more than a million applications were submitted for participation in the event. At the same time, the arena selected for the rally accommodates 19 thousand people, so the organizers of the rally provided for the president’s additional performance in the open air for all those who cannot get to the main event. As a result, only more than 6 thousand people gathered at the rally itself, and empty stands could be observed during the president’s speech.

The same Parskeil accused of the failure of the rally of the media, as well as the "radical protesters" who prevented the supporters of Trump from getting into the arena. However, the journalists attended at the event said that they did not notice a significant number of opponents of the president in the Bok Center area.

According to the Fox News survey, 59% of the Americans believe that in the current conditions, conducting mass events, even in compliance with all safety standards, is still dangerous and can lead to new outbreaks of coronavirus. But apparently, the reason for the low attendance of the rally in Tals was not even fears about the Covid-19, but the campaign launched in Tiktok and other social networks.

Trump's opponents called for registering in Oklahom, but only in order to reserve free tickets and not come to the event itself. Fans of Kay Pop unexpectedly massively joined the call, writes The New York Times. They booking places under fake mail addresses and mobile phone numbers, publishing viral tiktoki about this. After a day or two, users deleted or hid their videos so that the organizers of the rally did not learn about the upcoming prank.

One of the initiators of the campaign was the Tiktok-grandmother, a 51-year-old resident of Ayov Mary Joe Lop, who was outraged that Trump’s rally in Oklahom was scheduled for June 19, when the country was celebrated with the abolition of slavery (as a result, the rally was still postponed a day later). She recorded a tick with instructions for adolescents how to deceive the organizers. Her video collected more than 700 thousand likes. According to her, an additional bonus to the failure of the rally in Tals was that the Trump’s election headquarters collected a huge base of fake personal data, which he could not use anywhere.

“American teenagers dealt a brutal blow to Donald Trump,” Steve Schmidt admitted on Twitter one of the long -standing strategists of the Republicans. “Glory to the Zumers! I'm so proud of you, ” wrote Alexandria Okasio-Cortes, the youngest US Congress, a representative of the Democratic Party.
