You know this is absolutely killing him, right? He has to be seething!

[Bleacher Creature]

This rally exists for one reason, and one reason alone: assuaging Trump's ego and trying to snap him out of his funk. It's not about winning Oklahoma. It's not about looking Presidential. It's entirely to make a 74 year-old child feel better about himself.

And if there's one thing we know with 100% certainty, it's that he views crowd size as an indicator of success. This has to be eating him alive, and it's positively hilarious!

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

1. But he'll tell us that the crowd was yuge, like his inauguration crowd.

[Solomon]

15. Yep. He's so delusional he doesn't see any empty seats.

[BadgerMom]

28. Oh, he sees the empty seats.

He’ll just try to make the rest of the world disbelieve their own eyes. Won’t work anymore, liar.

[not_the_one]

53. "Don't believe what you see. Don't believe what you hear."

Someone once said...

It only works for so long, and then only on the braindead turd zombies. THEY are in it for the duration.

May they ALL circle, circle, circle, then DOWN the toilet drain together.

[electric_blue68]

61. Yes....

U2 💖 Acrobat!

[noneof_theabove]

56. The empty seats

are hold the "everybody is saying", "I've been hearing" crowd.

[StarfishSaver]

2. It's not only that the event is a big dud

The fact that THE story is that the event is a big dud. That will drive him crazy.

[grumpyduck]

6. Nah. He'll go "fake news."

[StarfishSaver]

10. Sure, that's what he'll SAY

But he knows what he sees and it's humiliating.

Kind of like when he realized they were booing him at the baseball game.

[sop]

65. Trump hasn't been this humiliated since Obama roasted him at the WH Correspondents' Dinner.

[bdamomma]

3. we need someone to say

the emperor wears no clothes.

[Jarqui]

5. Don't give him any ideas .. puke in mouth .. nt

[calimary]

49. ROFL!!!

4. The old bone spurs will be acting up.

32. Not to be flippant--many times he gets pissed, Melania goes incognito. Check for makeup, sunglasses.

[Chemisse]

44. I doubt she allows herself to be alone with him without Secret Service nearby.

She's smarter than she looks.

[TheBlackAdder]

46. Trump is the kind of person who will lash out physically. Melania might be protected, but not always

.

And, if Trump hit her, would there be a cover-up until he's out of office?

.

[Chemisse]

47. Yeah, they are not going to put their butts on the line for her.

It would only come out in somebody's tell-all book down the road.

[calimary]

50. Yes. Don't forget how he tore a fistful of Ivana's hair out

after he had a scalp reduction that didn’t turn out the way he expected.

If I were Melania I’d get out now.

[not_the_one]

54. smarter than she looks....

Smart can be a lot of things...

Scheming, conniving, manipulative bitch is another interpretation.

[Chemisse]

67. That's pretty much how I see it too. n/t

[LizBeth]

7. Is he up there yet?

[Tipperary]

8. Too funny.

He is being humiliated in real time.

[riversedge]

9. Trump is going to hit on CNN. Wolf is really almost gleeful about the smaller than expected crowds.

27. A German soccer team has an answer to empty stands:

That’s right: supporters of Borussia Mönchengladbach, the German club that currently sits in fourth in the Bundesliga standings, have developed a novel oddball concept — one worth replicating around the world if coronavirus-era sporting events take place in empty stadiums and arenas in the coming weeks and months. For 19 euros, or some $20.60, fans of Borussia Mönchengladbach can purchase a cardboard cutout of their likeness, to be planted in the Borussia-Park home stadium seats during games. Time.com

[AZ8theist]

39. and the EPL is pumping in fake crowd noise....

Laughable..

[Skittles]

12. let's think about it

that bastard rode on the accomplishments of Obama until the economy crashed, he completely botched the virus response and cannot even handle routine updates, BLM supporters vastly outnumber his racist followers and he's been going through extreme withdrawals due to the lack of his hate rallies......this was essentially going to be his BIG COMEBACK, he literally WISHED for a million people, just like he wishes the virus will go away.....you'd think that yet ANOTHER dismal failure for him would WAKE HIM THE FUCK UP but he is a malignant narcissist who cannot see past his own needs so GET REALLY FOR MORE MELTDOWNS

[struggle4progress]

13. It's time to put Jared in charge of the campaign!

[Mazeltov Cocktail]

38. And get Sean Spicer to estimate the crowd size...

[smirkymonkey]

14. Ahh! Sweet, sweet schadenfreude.

[relayerbob]

16. Absolutely awesome!

Can't imagine it's even half capacity. Gotta be pissing him off, but then again, he may be so hopped up on Adderal he's seeing double

[BigmanPigman]

17. He is so delusional and narcissitic that he DOES see huge crowds.

He actually sees crowds, he is insane don't forget.

[Chemisse]

45. Clearly the delusion didn't hold this time.

The walk of shame was him realizing that nobody loves him. Poor baby.

[Traildogbob]

18. PERIOD!!

Biggest in history. But..... fewest teeth at a rally in history. Antifa would not let his people in, he actually said that. But he had heavily armed militia oldside. THEY let the mysterious Antifa overpower them? Fucking snowflakes. Hoping Repubs realize this will not re-elect them and start standing up for democracy. That Fox base is shriveling like Donnie’s mushroom near a strong woman. A black one!

[47of74]

31. Hey that's insulting to mushrooms to compare Fuckopotomus's genitals to them

[Traildogbob]

33. Stormy started it.

[Jamaal510]

37. I feel bad for Toad from Mario Kart. nt

[not_the_one]

55. At this point I hope the repubs double down. They are incapable of "standing up for democracy".

If they suddenly "see the light", many of those who are totally disgusted with the whole party and have washed their hands of the turd, will turn around and re-elect the enablers that helped us to get to this point. They are desperately looking for a reason to return to the fold and continue to support the OLD republican party.

But it no longer exists.

[Traildogbob]

57. You are correct

100 percent. When they show you who there are, believe them. They showed it during impeachment, and the Ryan Tax fraud. They ARE, Trumpism.

[Mr. Ected]

19. I hear he'ss blaming the media for scaring off his crowd

The same media they've ignored for 3.5 years. Right.

So that means they trusted the lamestream media more than you, is that right?

Any way you look at it, you lose, Trump.

[czarjak]

20. Oh, durn it...

I was gonna go to the next one too.

[Lucky Luciano]

21. "Biggest rally in the middle of a pandemic in the last 100 years!"

[greenjar_01]

25. It isn't even the biggest this week

[DinahMoeHum]

22. Another rage-tweeting spree coming up. . .

. . .sometime after midnight (EST)

[Larissa]

23. It's horrifying

Trump is feeding the virus with this stunt. Our only defense against Covid-19 is keeping our heads down. It's sickening and very troubling that people would deliberately put their own health at risk, and expose innocent folks they come in contact with, in order to hear Trump's usual raft of reheated lies.

P.S. -- No telling how many lives the rick roll may have saved.

29. Oh man I can't wait to see the rage tweets tomorrow.

[BlancheSplanchnik]

30. Ah, such Schadenfreude

I love it. No one deserves it like him (and Mitch, ok?)

[hay rick]

35. LOL. I just looked up how to spell the word for my post.

I've never felt comfortable gloating about s-c-h-a-d-e-n-f-r-e-u-d-e, but Trump has decimated that inhibition.

[NBachers]

36. He thought he was going to his Woodstock, but all it was is Would Mock.

[The King of Prussia]

42. If there's a war (warning: profanity)

I want those protesters that scared off a million people on my side. They must be some seriously scary motherf*ckers.

[Demovictory9]

51. at this point, he's probably even made at his base... for not showing up

just like when he was booed at the ballpark, they are going to have to schedule another event with a large crowd to offset this debacle.

[backscatter712]

52. See his walk of shame getting back from Tulsa...

Link to tweet

[efhmc]

58. Looking for his tweets.

[MyMission]

59. The 6,000 that showed up

are still a lot of people, stupid and deluded enough to attend an indoor rally for 45. More than enough for a super spreader event, if not enough to feed his ego.

But the 2/3 empty seats show something surprising. A lot of his supporters are way smarter than him and less gullible than he expected. Don the con loosing his touch!
So happy to see it.

[TlalocW]

60. So what's next?

For a while, the daily COVID briefings were what was keeping him going because he got to act like a dick to the press, but then it became apparent what an idiot he was, and they stopped them.

He just got his heart-broken by Tulsa. Will he risk having it broken again with more rallies? Will they never be the same? Can he reach down into his dark soul to muddle through with something approaching the old energy?

And what of his base? Are they now as disillusioned as he is? They can whistle past the graveyard all they want, but they know last night was humiliating for him. Has that broken the spell? Can he no longer own the libs? Will they not be willing to be a part of future humiliations, or will they roar back in an effort to show us what's what?

Stranger things have happened.

66. He'll probably compare the fake attendees, to mail in voting fraud. Blaming the Dems.

You gotta know he's going to use this politically, because he's looking like a friggin' stooge right now.
