“Trump going ahead with the Tulsa rally is a rousing rebuke to the haters and destroyers who are trying to sow chaos in the U.S. today. Leftist and establishment Right politicians are cowering in fear, but Trump is magnificently unbowed. His rally sends several important messages. One is that he is not going to allow himself to be cowed by the ongoing covid-19 hysteria. The virus is not as devastating or deadly as was predicted, and free people must reject the ongoing attempts by Democrat mayors and governors to prolong lockdowns endlessly for partisan reasons, to slow the resurgence of the economy and hurt Trump’s reelection chances. It also points up the hypocrisy of the media, in celebrating the protests in which thousands of people took part without masks or social distancing, while suddenly stoking up covid hysteria again regarding Trump’s rally. At the rally, moreover, Trump is likely to restate his “America-First” message, which is all the more important in light of the ongoing anti-American riots, destruction, and tearing-down of statues of founding American figures such as Thomas Jefferson.” Pamela Geller
Trump’s Tulsa Rally to Show He Remains ‘Unbowed’ by Coronavirus, Floyd Protests, Observers Say
By Sputnik, June 20, 2020:President Donald Trump’s Tulsa rally will give him an important opportunity to cut through the media’s filter of negativity and deliver his reelection campaign message to thousands of Oklahomans and millions of Americans, political observers speaking to Sputnik suggest.
President Trump is heading to Tulsa, Oklahoma Saturday to hold his first mass rally since the start of the coronavirus pandemic. Health officials have claimed the event may cause a surge of COVID-19 cases, while liberal leaders have pointed to the city’s record of white on black violence, and accused Trump of “insensitivity” in his choice of venue.
Story continues below advertisementThe rally, set to start at 7 pm CT (8 pm EST), has received plenty of coverage, both good and bad, in the past week or so. Hillary Clinton has blasted the event over the liability waiver participants will be made to signs to assume any risk associated with coronavirus. Other critics attacked his choice of Tulsa amid the racially charged atmosphere in America, pointing to the 1921 massacre in the city, which saw mobs of angry white residents attacking black residents and businesses, with the violence leading to the deaths of up to 200 African Americans and 50 white Americans.
Trump’s supporters and the president himself, meanwhile, have pressed forward with the event, insisting all necessary anti-coronavirus precautions will be taken, while warning violent protesters to stay away. Altogether, as many as 100,000 people are expected to descend on the city, either for the rally or protests.
“The rally is extremely significant because the president has not really had a chance to express his position on the [Black Lives Matter] rallies without the filter of the media,” says Carmine Sabia, self-described ‘Christian conservative, NRA member and Israel supporter’, writer and editor at large for SabiaReport.com.
“There are legitimate concerns from many of the protesters that have to be addressed but the facts and statistics show that the systemic racism in policing that they believe exists does not,” Sabia suggests. “The leftist media has had a field day promoting the idea of racist police in an effort to attack the president in an election year. History shows they have done the same in the previous two elections.”
Pamela Geller, conservative author, journalist and commentator, echoes this sentiment.
“President Trump going ahead with the Tulsa rally is a rousing rebuke to the haters and destroyers who are trying to sow chaos in the US today. Leftist and establishment Right politicians are cowering in fear, but Trump is magnificently unbowed,” Geller says.
“His rally sends several important messages. One is that he is not going to allow himself to be cowed by the ongoing covid-19 hysteria. The virus is not as devastating or deadly as was predicted, and free people must reject the ongoing attempts by Democrat mayors and governors to prolong lockdowns endlessly for partisan reasons, to slow the resurgence of the economy and hurt Trump’s reelection chances,” Geller suggests.
Media Hypocrisy
According to Geller, the media’s criticism of the Tulsa rally demonstrates its “hypocrisy,” owing to its celebration of BLM protests “while suddenly stoking up Covid hysteria again regarding Trump’s rally.”
Sabia agrees, suggesting that the media has proven itself “laughably biased” when it comes to the Tulsa event. “The same media that championed and promoted the Black Lives Matter rallies, where social distancing was virtually nonexistent, are now concerned about one rally…The fact is they do not want President Trump to hold rallies because they fear that former Vice President Joe Biden will have to respond by holding his own rallies in front of near empty arenas.”
Sabia suggests that if Biden responds, it may end up being the ruin of his campaign, because his apparent old-age dementia will be exposed for all to see.
2020 Campaign Message
Geller believes that rally will see Trump reiterating his ‘America First’ election campaign message, “which is all the more important in light of the ongoing anti-American riots, destruction, and tearing down of statues of founding American figures such as Thomas Jefferson.”
Sabia, meanwhile, expects Trump “to be his usual, energetic self” and to “state the facts, as he always does,” and that the rally will lead to a bump in his poll numbers. It’s possible, he says, that Biden will be forced “out of his basement and onto the campaign trail, where he does not want to be.”

By the way, leftists tied to Democrats organized a campaign to buy
tickets and not fill seats at the event. AOC is online bragging about
it and encouraging more of it.

Interesting. The Dumbocrat trolls on the FOX coverage site are crowing about attendance. Can’t win. Either they’re whining that too many attendees means everyone’s going to die of covidcooties or they’re crowing over a smaller crowd.

Well since 4.5 + million watched the rally on video, it was a huge success.

Trump stated the case best himself. He said he is often asked how he weathers the daily operations and shenanigans that are routinely lodged against him. His response, “What choice do I have?”

Trump is laying the foundation for an overwhelming victory in November, but the Commiecrats are out in full force to steal the election. Their proven and chosen method is mail-in voting. We cannot allow any mail-in votes to be counted. We have to stop them from being delivered and counted. They must all be destroyed; otherwise, we are going to lose this election. Trump can’t do this but we can by organizing and acting today to stop the ballot harvesting and fake mail-in votes.

The courts are all for it, and even the Supreme Court goes against Trump when given the opportunity, as noted this past week.

Obviously written before the rally fizzled.
You do know that Sputnik is Russian media, don’t you?
I suppose Trump can thank Putin for his reendorsement.
