Trump Manager: Campaign Was Not Duped, Media Scared Supporters From Tulsa Rally; Did ‘Dirty Tricks’ Sabotage Trump Tulsa Rally?; Trump Rally Backlash: No Different Than Protests ‘From a Purely Public Health Point of View’
By Breitbart. Trump 2020 Campaign Manager Brad Parscale on Sunday berated the media for savaging the campaign’s small crowd size in Tulsa on Saturday, despite boasting a million campaign ticket requests beforehand.
“For the media to now celebrate the fear that they helped create is disgusting but typical,” Parscale wrote in a lengthy statement to reporters. “And it makes us wonder why we bother credentialing media for events when they don’t do their full jobs as professionals.”
Corporate media organizations had a field day after only about 6,000 supporters attended President Trump’s rally, failing to fill the BOK Center stadium and left the planned overflow areas empty.
Parscale blamed the media’s negative reporting before the rally for the small crowds, criticizing them for stoking coronavirus fears and reports of possible protests and riots.
“The fact is that a week’s worth of the fake news media warning people away from the rally because of COVID and protestors, coupled with recent images of American cities on fire, had a real impact on people bringing their families and children to the rally,” he wrote.

Did ‘Dirty Tricks’ Sabotage Trump Tulsa Rally?
By PJ Media. Tik-Tok and K-Pop users are claiming they reserved hundreds of tickets for Donald Trump’s Tulsa rally, never having any intention of showing up. The result was a half-empty arena in Tulsa for the president’s post-coronavirus restart of his campaign.
In fact, Twitter is alight this morning with reports that dozens of teens reserved thousands of rally tickets to sabotage the optics of Trump’s speech. . .
My 16 year old daughter and her friends in Park City Utah have hundreds of tickets. You have been rolled by America’s teens. @realDonaldTrump you have been failed by your team. You have been deserted by your faithful. No one likes to root for the losing team. @ProjectLincoln https://t.co/VM5elZ57Qp

The gloating is absolutely nauseating. The Trump rally was sabotaged by political “dirty trick” worthy of the Nixon campaign and Democrats are celebrating?
Actually you just got ROCKED by teens on TikTok who flooded the Trump campaign w/ fake ticket reservations & tricked you into believing a million people wanted your white supremacist open mic enough to pack an arena during COVID
Shout out to Zoomers. Y’all make me so proud. ☺️ https://t.co/jGrp5bSZ9T

. . .The Trump team claims there was other sabotage, including the blocking of access to metal detectors to enter the arena and threatening by anti-Trump radicals. They ended up canceling the outdoor address by the president altogether.
Was this an organized effort to shut down Trump and sabotage the rally? There is no evidence that is the case. We’ve seen social media spark revolutions in other countries with little or no formal organization online so it’s possible that a meme spread on Twitter could have developed into several thousand independent efforts to make phony requests for tickets.

Dr. Siegel on Trump Rally Backlash: No Different Than Protests ‘From a Purely Public Health Point of View’
By Fox News. Fox News medical contributor Dr. Marc Siegel called out a double standard from some of President Trump’s critics who cited coronavirus concerns surrounding his campaign rally in Oklahoma on Saturday, while seemingly giving a pass to the thousands of protesters who have taken to the streets in recent weeks.
“It is very disappointing… all of this backbite going on about a virus we’re still learning about which is very humbling,” Siegel told “Fox & Friends Weekend” host Jedediah Bila.
“Of course you saw the protests going on around the country in major cities. That, of course, took risks and there wasn’t a lot of mask-wearing there. So far, we haven’t seen a spike of cases in those areas as a result,” he explained. . .
Siegel acknowledged that “people, both at protests and at rallies, get excited, and when they’re excited, they take fewer precautions.”
At the same time, Siegel said he didn’t “see any difference between having a rally and having protests from a purely public health point of view,” adding that it was “very disappointing [to see] all the politicizing going on.” (Read more from “Dr. Siegel on Trump Rally Backlash: No Different Than Protests ‘From a Purely Public Health Point of View'” HERE)
