  2. Lefties are trying to have some fun with the scenario where thousands of Trump supporters got stranded waiting at a rally for buses to take them back to their parking areas.

    Certainly Joe would never have that problem.

    Just call an Uber driver to give the three people a ride. Most likely though they were sitting in their cars during the rally so the Big Guy had it all taken care of in advance. Yup. No need for overflow parking lots three miles away with rallies for Joe.

    There’s nothing fun about leaving thousands of people stranded in the cold while you fly away in your nice tax payer funded plane.

    Those poor people.

  4. Yup. Trump was on the move bigtime. Third rally for the day. Day after day.

    Again, not something The Big Guy needs to worry about.

    There is a reason why he is known as Sleepy Joe.

    I don’t think this helped his vote totals in NE2.

  6. Then you are an idiot.

    Trump has been on the move- bigtime- only two weeks out of the hospital from covid- out in freezing weather. Third rally of the day, for days on end. His maga supporters ended out inadvertently taking one for the team but they see him out there pushing himself to the limits as well. Unlike Sleepy Joe who you get to see on zoom in his basement- taking a hot chocolate and cookies for the team.

    You are trying to understand it from the pussy lefty frame of mind.

    Oh, and those people can most likely stand in line in the cold to vote too.

    No. Trump is doing the work but leaving old people on the tarmac didn’t help in NE2. I don’t care what your spin is about that rally. That was too much of an ugly scene.

    The other events are something different. By and large they do help his cause. He certainly has an M.O. of going broke and pushing rallies at the end of his campaign.

    I suggest moseying on over to some of the Nebraska papers today, it’s all cancelled college football and stranded hypothermic trump supporters.

  8. I have already conceded that - unlike Trump- there are no reports of Biden rallies being so massive that it dangerously overwhelmed local resources.

    And we can agree that more attention needs to be given to that, especially by all local officials who should expect massively long voting line when it might be very cold- especially by republicans.

    Thank you for your concern and support. If you are so concerned you can maybe serve coffee and donuts to the people in line. Most of them will be republicans, but hey, we know that up there on Mount Olympus where you are, you pay no attention to political affiliation. You are a giver.

  9. Correct. Nebraska sources are giving a more balanced and revised review of the circumstances at the rally.




    Reports of mayhem after Trump rally in Omaha overblown


    OMAHA, Neb. (WOWT) - The mass departure from the MAGA rally at Eppley Airfield made for long treks home Tuesday night, but not the way many on social media — and even Joe Biden himself — make it seem.

    About 25,000 people attended Tuesday night’s rally at Eppley Airfield, according to an OPD spokesman. Many social media posts said many of those attendees were left stranded in freezing weather for hours once the president left, but reports from Omaha authorities indicate otherwise.

    Buses were delivering rally attendees from 10 a.m. until 8 p.m. OPD reported at about 6 p.m. that the event was at capacity.

    Around 8 p.m., President Trump arrived at the Make America Great Again Victory Rally, hosted by Tac Air and organized by the White House and the Trump campaign. Once the rally was over around 9 p.m., “people flooded to the waiting buses,” and many of them opted to walk back to their vehicles, OPD said.

    The Omaha Airport Authority said the Trump campaign rented 40 buses to transport people from remote parking lots to the event site and ran them for 10 hours. The bus company confirmed Wednesday that those drivers were paid, deflating another incorrect rumor circulating on social media.

    OPD said additional Metro Area Transit buses were called in after the event to help transport people away from the rally.

    Transportation from the site to parking areas began immediately following the event, an OAA spokesman said, but many people opted to forego the wait for a bus ride and walk back to their vehicles. OPD said the shortest walk back to a parking lot was 2.5 miles and that “foot traffic on Lindberg Drive slowed bus traffic and delayed bus trips considerably.”


    Officers also gave rides to elderly and handicapped attendees as they were able, the spokesman said.

    The weather station at the airport recorded the temp as 34 degrees with a wind chill of 27 degrees at 8:52 p.m. Tuesday, with the temperature dropping to 33 degrees with the same wind chill by 11:52 p.m. and continuing to fall to about 25 degrees and a wind chill of 16 degrees by 5:52 a.m. Wednesday.

    The last person leaving the rally site by bus was on board at 11:50 p.m., and pedestrian and vehicle traffic was back to normal by 12:30 a.m., OPD said.

    Between five and seven people were taken from Tuesday night’s MAGA rally with various medical conditions, authorities said. Others needing medical attention were “contacted by medics over the duration of the event, not just at the end,” the OPD spokesman said.

    Some media reports based on preliminary unverified information prompted outcry from local Democrats. Biden also talked about the events in Omaha while campaigning Wednesday in Delaware.

    “Just look at what happened last night in Omaha after Trump — after the Trump rally ended. Hundreds of people including older Americans and children were stranded in sub-zero, freezing temperatures for hours. Several folks ended up in the hospital. It’s an image that captured Trump’s whole approach to this crisis, he takes a lot of big pronouncements and he makes a lot of big pronouncements but they don’t hold up. He gets his photo op and then he gets out. He leaves everyone else to suffer the consequence of his failure to make a responsible plan. It seems like he just doesn’t care much about it and the longer he’s in charge the more reckless he gets. It’s enough, it’s time to change.”
