https://www.rawstory.com/insider/Donald Trump is obsessed with his upcoming October 27 rally at Madison Square Garden in New York City, according to a confidant who spoke with The Bulwark on the condition of anonymity.
[Trump] has just been obsessed with this for at least a year, the source said, according to The Bulwark. This is his campaign. So its happening.
Trump, The Bulwarks Marc Caputo reported, boasted to the confidant that hes gonna fill the Garden.
Headlining Madison Square Garden represents the fulfillment of a longtime dream for an outer-borough kid who always has a New York state of mind, Caputo wrote Tuesday.
Who has a childhood dream about speaking in Madison Square Garden to adoring fans? A megalomaniac.

In 1939 there were 20,000 INSIDE the rally but I thought I read there were 100,000 OUTSIDE protesting it. We need to do same.

(27,415 posts)I'm driven nuts when I see it as buses, because I understand rules of spelling and pronunciation, and with only one s it would be pronounced exactly like abuses (harms) without the a sound.
Eliot Rosewater
(32,658 posts)spelling that is so rarely used it is often considered to be a misspelling.
But your phonetics lesson is valuable here.
This could be an example of "alternative facts," sort of. In that over time this spelling became accepted when it is wrong. Similarly now if you say fascism and Nazi's are good, you dont get an argument from half the country.

He's always been deranged, apparently.

(3,376 posts)However even if 3/4 of the seats were empty the media would find a way to NOT show it
TommyT139
(1,049 posts)...from the sort of TikTok hijinks they fell for earlier. Evidently seats are not reserved, or guaranteed, but first come first served. So it sounds like rsvp'ing just gets you added to their lists. Then there are various paid tiers of attendance, because of course.

And blab about it as soon as it was over.
Never mind. I would never do anything to help that orange menace.
Also anyone who would stuff arenas for A**hole --for any amount of money --should be ashamed.

Trump is loosing more marbles every day as he goes further and further around the bend
