Trump greeted by empty seats at Tulsa Rally, critics say 'rolled by American teens'

United States President Donald Trump took to stage on June 20 in Tulsa, Oklahoma to deliver his re-election campaign speech. The much controversial rally marked the resumption of hi re-election campaign which was halted as the coronavirus pandemic hit the US. However, despite enormous predictions, the crowds did not turn up in the numbers Trump and his campaign officials expected.

A week earlier, Trump’s campaign manager, Brad Pascale has predicted that there had been more than one million ticket requests. However, as events unfolded, the arena saw most of its seats empty. According to reports, only 6,200 seats filled in the area which has a seating capacity of 90,000.

Soon, Trump’s critics pointed out that the online campaign to sabotage Trump’s rally by TikTok users and allegedly Korean Pop music fans was a success. Later Steve Schmidt former Republican strategist and now a stark critic of Trump wrote that the American leader has been “rolled down“ by America's teens.

Presidential election

Trump will be facing a massive challenge in the upcoming November 3 presidential election as his approval ratings have hit an all-time low, where in contrast his rival, Joe Biden's ratings have risen. Political pundits suggest that the reason behind a dip in Trump's approval ratings is his coronavirus response, which has made the United States the worst-hit nation in the world, with more deaths than top affected countries combined. Trump's reign is also witnessing the biggest protest since the Vietnam war as many Americans have poured onto the streets to demand an end of racial abuse and police brutality against minorities.
