Data haul

It’s names and numbers. And money. It’s a trove of marks for the con artists.

All 800,000? Current emails and phone numbers? Even if it’s only 100,000 new people. That’s potentially millions of new dollars.

And so what? Other folks here can be awed by these “numbers”. I don’t GAF or take anything they say at face value. Trump 2020 is an exercise in preaching to the converted.

C. They want photos of long lines of people who can't get in.

All three things are most likely true.

He's trying to preserve his job shoveling money into his own coffers.

He may not have enough sports cars or yachts yet.

How will they chose the attendees? By lottery? By who contributes the most?

I'll bet Parscale runs the names through a voting record data base to insure they get the very best deplorables.

What a rotten, corrupt bunch that are supposed to be public servants that would never hold rallies during a global pandemic.

They actually WILL issue 800 K tickets; essentially to anyone who requests one. Then they can say that “800,000” people wanted to attend, but there was only room for the first 20,000.

They don't expect a lot of people to attend because of Covid - so they sent out 800,000 tickets in hopes that maybe 19,000 idiots might be that hardcore to attend.

Trump's worried if they only sent out 25,000 tickets - he'd be talking to a half empty hall.

Expecting a lot of travel?
And there's only 16,400 hotel rooms in that city.
So, literally everyone in Tulsa has to attend, and the out of towners will be merely 25 to a room!
Sounds truthful to me!

(I believe) requested a ticket - and posted on FB to encourage others so that there would be empty seats. I'm sure they are aware of that.
