I keep getting paid/sponsored adds in my Facebook feed for the Trump Rally in Charlotte. I find it odd, because I don't follow any of his stuff, so I started following the trail, and they are paid/sponsored adds.
Out of curiosity, I clicked through, because I knew Charlotte has a huge Stadium (Bank of America Stadium, where the Panthers played), so I was really curious how full it would be. Even to fill 75k seats in a metro area of over 2M is not a huge deal, so I was a little curious why they were having so much trouble, considering all the people that tell us that he's going to win because he fills the biggest stadiums.
Well surprise surprise, he's not going to BoA stadium.
He's not even going to the Downtown Coliseum, where the NBA Hornets play (I think like 18k capacity)
Nope, he's holding his rally at Bojangle's arena. Capacity is 8600, and he's been spending money left and right because (apparently) the FREE tickets are not selling.
It's just another example of how what Trump and his base say, does not equate to reality.
This guy, according to himself, should have BoA stadium full, with an overflow crowd at the Hornets arena. NOPE!
In fairness to Trump, the wrestling world championships and stock car races were being held at the same time. You know, when Haystack Calhoon is in town, everything else takes a backseat.
The appropriate comparison for Trump's rally is tonight's Blue NC event. However, unlike Trump's events that send out tickets beyond the capacity of the venue, to produce big lines. When you google Blue NC, hits clearly state sold out.
All I see are a bunch of frightened Democrats doing everything they can to discredit yet another YUGE Trump rally starting with the OP. I can see why. This is from Friday night, 180 miles away.

LOL, I heard that he paid for an audience when he declared.
Look, go to the South Jersey suburbs of Philadelphia board and find and read the thread about the rally in Wildwood. It should say everything about the Charlotte rally. Trump found an even smaller venue. They gave out over 100,000 tickets for a smaller venue.
You'd never acknowledge ANY proof, so nothing to that at all.
And you never provide any. Any time you want to post your proof we're all ears, Kitty. Of course, you've been asked to do so numerous times, and you simply ignore it and post the same lie again and again and again, so we all know it's FAKE NEWS! If it wasn't you would have proved it by now. You haven't because you can't.
