President Donald Trump and VP Mike Pence scrapped plans to address an overflow crowd outside his Tulsa rally after lower-than-expected turnout at his Tulsa rally on Saturday.
Trump's campaign claimed that over 1,000,000 supporters had signed up for the event.
Here's some of what people were saying about the small turnout:
Pitiful turnout at Trump's Tulsa hate rally. Trump boasted a million tickets? Looks like most who signed up were trolling Also, Trump has cancelled his planned speech to the overflow crowd because there IS no overflow. #TrumpIsALoser https://t.co/E3tDhL4jmq

As others are reporting, looks like attendance here in Tulsa is well below campaign's expectations. Here's the main floor at the arena currently pic.twitter.com/EASfSHL5nN

If you're interested in ruining @realDonaldTrump simply tweet photos of his small crowd turnout. pic.twitter.com/fj9HVCuKQn

Definitely not the optics President Trump was looking for in Tulsa. https://t.co/dhEj08mn7j

The hilariously weak turnout for the Trump Rally, is making it embarrassingly obvious that @parscale lied to @realDonaldTrump so he could keep gettting campaign Ferraris. pic.twitter.com/fh2CNQFTnD

Really, really shitty turnout. The toddler-in-chief is going to have a temper tantrum.

Damn, at least allowing the protestors in would've given the appearence of a larger turnout lol https://t.co/pPEcfeqS6C

Trump has been looking forward to this for weeks. And aides have been promising him a blowout. https://t.co/uTO8wQIdYq

A whole lot of empty seats. Certainly not since he's been president has there been one this empty by the time the VP took the stage. Don't remember any this empty in the campaign either. https://t.co/J5YQkW3Dyc

It's a disappointing turnout for a major presidential rally.
But it's a massive crowd for folks willing to endanger their lives inside, without masks in the middle of a pandemic.
All depends on your perspective.
