This is too good about the TPUSA halftime show.

[Initech]

It was recorded at an "unknown" venue at the University Of North Dakota at Grand Forks. At their basketball practice arena - a place that only holds some 3,000. On a "unknown date". Previously recorded. It wasn't even live. And it was weeks ago. They had this already filmed. There's also an unverified rumor going around Xitter that over half of the "6 million viewers" that they're claiming are nothing more than paid bots.

For weeks they had been promising a venue the size of State Farm Stadium in Arizona or Nissan Stadium in Nashville. They couldn't deliver on that. They couldn't even deliver on the 100,000 claims they shit talked on Fox and Newsmax about this. Only 200 people showed up, that's right. 200. As many as could fit in a 737 Max 8.

It's all about projection on this crowd when in reality, nobody really cares. The TPUSA halftime show got utterly destroyed in the ratings by an estimated, 1/3 of the country watching Bad Bunny. TPUSA is a pathetic sham grifting organization, but we all knew that. This entire exercise was nothing more than an overblown and glorified trolling operation. But of course, they're promising on Fox that they'll be continuing their temper tantrum again next year.

3. Wasn't even live?

Everything they do is bullshit!

[lame54]

5. They had to pre-record...

So they could watch Bad Bunny

4. "trolling operation" - That's all there is behind the maga/trump hot air

Using the xitter bots to count supporters is the same nonsense that paid-for pollsters have done forever.

[ChicagoTeamster]

6. But they don't even know who's going to be in the halftime show next year. They'll just do it to spite the NFL?

Don't do it for Trump TPUSA, You already know he won't watch.

7. Wow 😳

How pathetic

[ToxMarz]

8. Probably had that plane load of 'Melania' movie attendees they been flying around

to boost ticket sales just take a side trip to see kid puke.

9. Maybe it was prerecorded this past summer...

and that's why he's wearing shorts and no socks. He thinks he's so cool with the stupid hat. What is he? About 55? He's no longer a "kid" but an immature man-boy who is trying to relive his glory days.

As a side note, I live near the town where he grew up and went to school. He tries to portray himself as "country" but no one here would call it that. My daughter went to the same high school but different year, and I wonder if he even graduated from high school. He was basically what the locals would have labeled "white trash".

15. This is HYSTERICAL. I mean, we knew it was pathetic but . . .

That’s like . . . epi-pathetic!

[Initech]

17. This was a temper tantrum level of trolling.

And also maybe one of the biggest epic failures of all time.

[canetoad]

16. You think they'd grow up

And not openly compete with the professionals.

Stick a grand fork in them — THEY’RE DONE!
