Thousands of Trump supporters left stranded in the cold, buses are delayed for hours at PA rally

[Klaralven]

Thousands of Donald Trump supporters were left stranded in the cold for hours yet again after his rally in Pennsylvania Saturday night, just days after a similar debacle in Omaha that left seven people hospitalized.

Trump spoke before thousands of supporters at the Pittsburgh-Butler Regional Airport in Butler on Saturday night, but for many it was a headache to return home as the Trump campaign failed to plan for a sufficient number of buses to get people back to their parking spots.

Hordes of MAGA fans waited in 41F degree cold for nearly two hours for shuttles to arrive.

1. AGAIN???

[democrattotheend]

19. 41F isn't that cold

Not nearly as cold as it was in Nebraska the other night. Truth is, most big crowd events, especially large presidential campaign rallies, require some degree of discomfort standing outside waiting. But you would think after what happened in Omaha the Trump campaign would try to work out some kinks to avoid a repeat.

7. Tell them that someone will arrive Nov 4th for them?

8. I read somewhere (sorry, can't remember) that the bus drivers did not want to pick up the MAGATs

because they refuse to wear masks on the bus...

Is our Trumpers learning?

10. I'm trying to empathize.

Fuck it, I can't.

11. Trump worshipers are a cult of masochists.

They will gladly freeze to death for Trump, thinking that dying for Trump is an honor, an act of selfless patriotism.

13. just read on another site

there were 57,000 people there... The entire city of Butler and then 40k. must have been an armada of busses

[shrike3]

17. Butler is in Butler Country, which has 187,000 people.

My understanding is, Trump could indeed shoot someone there and get away with it, that's how loyal they are. Fifty-seven thousand people is less than one-third of the county. There you go.

[NurseJackie]

15. Maybe they huddled closer together for warmth.

No social distancing... just like penguins.
