    Donald not getting the love in Iowa...

    BUSTED: Real Reason Trump Canceled Iowa Rally Was Attendance
    https://politizoom.com/busted-real-reason-trump-canceled-iowa-rally-was-attendance/

    This is going to be debated in Trump world for at least a couple of news cycles: 1. Did Donald Trump cancel his Des Moines rally on May 13, 2023 because of a dreadful tornado on the way or 2. Did he cancel it because there were about 300 people there?


    Trumpty Dumpty doesn’t even turn on his phone for numbers like that. He demands quadruple and quintuple digits for breakfast, for heaven’s sake. You think he’s going to lift a ketchup bottle, even, with no audience?



    There was a tornado “warning” in effect. There frequently is. They’re a lot like the flash flood warnings we get in the desert. You pay attention, certainly, but depend upon your own judgement and common sense because not every warning turns into a major, or even minor, storm event.

    What’s that you say? Why didn’t Trump just take a sharpie and move the tornado wherever he wanted it? Good point. There may be a job for you yet at Team Trump.

    Trump will govern that way as well, he trusted Pfizer.
    Try something new, if you really want change.
    Trump see's the nail and hammers around it, leaving the hammer on the table.

    Though Donald Trump often makes fun of Joe Biden for his old age, Trump himself apparently forgot where he was at during a speech in Sioux City, Iowa, Sunday, greeting the crowd with, “Hello to a place where we’ve done very well, Sioux Falls. Thank you very much.”

    Sioux Falls is located more than 80 miles north in neighboring South Dakota.

    Donald Trump Rally Crowd Size Claims Have One Major Problem
    https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/poli...ize-claims-have-one-major-problem/ar-BB1nXT1v

    Donald Trump's claim about the crowd size at his Las Vegas rally has one major problem—the venue doesn't accommodate the number of people he touted were there.


    On Sunday, the former president held his first rally since becoming a convicted felon in the New York hush money case, speaking to supporters at Sunset Park in the scorching Nevada heat.

    Over the weekend, temperatures topped 100 degrees in Las Vegas, and the National Weather Service issued an excessive heat watch. The Clark County Fire Department said six people were taken to the hospital and another two dozen received medical attention at the rally site.

    Trump addressed the weather during his remarks, telling rallygoers that his campaign told people "do not come," which resulted in "only 20,000" attendees. The trouble is, there wasn't enough room for that many people.

    The Clark County Parks and Recreation's Special Events Services told Newsweek on Monday that the area of the park where the Trump campaign held the rally has a maximum capacity of 3,000 people.

    "That [rally] was a little different because they used just a specific part of the park, and that has a capacity of, like, 2,000 to 3,000, depending on the setup," the park spokesperson said, adding that the entire park could accommodate more. Phased park expansions have developed 214 of the park's 324 total acres, according to the Clark County website.

    Videos from Sunday showed a steady stream of attendees leaving the rally while Trump spoke, with some speculating this was due to the heat. Clips shared on X (formerly Twitter) showed dozens of people rushing toward the exit as the former president continued speaking to the crowd.

    Similar videos circulated last month when "thousands" of people were recorded walking out of a New Jersey rally while Trump was delivering remarks.

    Trump also garnered headlines Sunday for telling his fans, "I don't care about you."

    "We need every voter. I don't care about you. I just want your vote. I don't care," he said to laughs in the crowd. "See now, the press will take that and they'll say, 'He said a horrible thing.'"

    He later told the audience that "everybody was so worried" about rallygoers having to brave the heat for the event, but "they never mentioned me. I'm up here sweating like a dog."

    The Trump campaign implemented "comfort measures" to help attendees cope with the heat. It offered bottles of water, misting fans and air-conditioned tents; allowed umbrellas into the event; and staffed the grounds with medical teams in case of emergencies.
