Like the social media numbers, the television audience for the Tulsa Trump rally was huge. An incredible 7.7 million total viewers tuned into Fox News to watch the rally. This represents the largest Saturday night audience in the networks history. That’s in addition to the 11 million people who watched the rally on social media. President Trump should be extremely pleased with this rally, despite the sabotage tactics from the Left. Let’s see what “Sleepy Joe” Biden can do to respond.

11 MILLION people watched @realDonaldTrump’s rally on Saturday.
That does not even include the millions who watched on TV.

While Biden was in his basement, @realDonaldTrump had 5.3 MILLION+ viewers tune in to his rally.
If Team Biden can ever figure out how to live stream, the media should broadcast it all in its full incoherence.
There will be no enthusiasm, and voters won’t like what they see!

Trump rally gives Fox News largest Saturday night audience in its history
By Fox News, June 22, 2020
President Trump’s rally on Saturday attracted a record-setting audience on TV despite the smaller-than-expected crowd in attendance at the Tulsa, Okla., event.
A whopping 7.7 million total viewers tuned into Fox News from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. EDT during Trump’s remarks, making it the most watched Saturday in the network’s history during that time period, according to early Nielsen data.
Trump’s rally also gave Fox News its largest Saturday night primetime audience ever from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m.
Trump’s State of the Union address is the only telecast on Fox News in 2020 to outdraw the 9 p.m. hour of Trump’s speech on Saturday, which averaged 8.2 million total viewers.
By comparison, ESPN’s coverage of the NFL Draft’s opening night averaged 8 million, MSNBC’s most-watched Democratic primary debate averaged 7.7 million and CNN’s most-watched Democratic primary debate averaged 7.4 million.
The Trump campaign has stated that even more viewers tuned in when including the significant audience that watched via streaming platforms.
“President Trump’s rally in Tulsa attracted over 4 million unique viewers across all of the campaign’s digital media channels. The live-streamed pre-rally shows drew an audience of more than 2.5 million unique viewers by themselves,” Trump 2020 communications director Tim Murtaugh said in a statement.
Liberal pundits have labeled the rally a disappointment because of the in-person attendance figures – but the Trump campaign disagrees.
“The news media, which encouraged protestors and bombarded Americans for more than a week with dire warnings against attending a Trump rally, are still unable to prevent President Trump from reaching the people. These numbers represent unmatched enthusiasm behind the President’s re-election and a massive audience that Joe Biden can only dream of,” Murtaugh said.
A spokesperson for the Tulsa Fire Department told Fox News on Sunday that fire marshal records show just under 6,200 scanned tickets were logged for the rally at the BOK Center. The figure doesn’t include Trump team staff members or private suites, which were fully booked.
The president and his campaign had touted 1 million ticket requests; the arena’s capacity is 19,000. The mainstream media has focused on the crowd size, with some top Democrats gloating that teenage activists sabotaged the turnout through Chinese video-sharing platform TikTok.

I dont know what there is for AOC to gloat about with her teenage army of armchair social media users. All she did (possibly) was make those who would of attended stay away. It will have no meaningful effect on Nov elections as those people will still vote Trump. The online/tv/social media views were in the 20 millions so we know Trump has his bases support.

YOU ARE SO CORRECT. While they laugh with glee, NOVEMBER will come and they won’t know what hit them when Trump is re-elected.

Left/Liberals,Muslims are pathological liars. share this if anyone believes their Lies http://offtrade.net/cnmnews/exposing-islamonazi-lies/

HEY FOX PEOPLE:
If you think FOX is the only place to watch these rallies, THINK AGAIN!
Go you YouTube.com and watch it on Right Side Broadcasting Network [RSBN NETWORK], where they always show every Trump rally anywhere! NEXT RALLY IS ON JUNE 30TH!
STOP GIVING FOX NEWS ANY RATINGS. THEY ARE A GARBAGE DUMP OF LIBERAL/MODERATE RHETORIC NOW. (except for Gutfeld, Judge Jeanine, and Tucker)

I haven’t seen you list any “moderates” outside of “Judge Jeanine”. Carlson is a leftist in sheep’s clothing.

Very good news and more good news!
FINALLY!
Trump to Halt Foreign Visa Worker Programs to Free Up 600K U.S. Jobs for Americans
By John BInder
6/22/20
President Trump will expand an executive order on Monday, halting a series of visa programs that bring hundreds of thousands of foreign workers to the United States to take American jobs.
(Educated WHITE collar for a change! Ues WHITE collar people exist too!)
The order will halt the inflow of foreign worker pipelines until at least December 31. The visa programs suspended include:
H-1B visas, who take white-collar U.S. jobs
H-4 visas, who are the spouses of H-1B visa holders
H-2B visas, who take blue-collar nonagricultural U.S. jobs
L visas, who take white-collar U.S. jobs
J-1 visas, who take a variety of blue-collar and white-collar U.S. jobs
…
In April, nearly 80 percent of Americans said they wanted immigration halted to the U.S. during the crisis and amid mass unemployment. This month, majorities of 55 to 85 percent of voters in ten swing states said they want less immigration at the moment.
…
Don’t like this –
Former lobbyist, DHS Secretary Chad Wolf and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo are given authority to exempt visa workers from the order if they are deemed “necessary to facilitate the immediate and continued economic recovery of the United States.”
(None of them are needed!)
This needs to be made permanent and also include OPT! OPT takes away positions from U.S. students and gets them closer to a green card. This also needs to end permanently! It needs to be legislated but that is impossible right now so an EO will have to do for now. I don’t like formerforeign lobbyist, Chad Wolf either.

For some reason, any time I hear “H1B” I think of H1N1.
But that’s another thing that will fall by the wayside if, G-d forbid, Biden gets in. Americans will be screwed once again as they have been under Clinton, Obama and the RINO Bushes.

Low turnout or alternative attendance?
So basically lots of people opted to attend virtually instead of in person due to
financial difficulties
legit personal health concerns
safety concerns
months of being used to staying home and discovering video is good enough when necessary
no daycare/school summer camp or babysitting
But it’s considered a low turn out? When is the last time that any campaign rally had that many attend? This might be a world record! The trump campaign should market this as a talking point and count them as attendees.
Flip the script on them!

The fake news is trying to make it sound like the rally was on a level with a biden rally where hardly anyone shows up. Sounds like all the people concerned about viruses simply watched the rally from their homes. The dems are toast in November!

And the other networks sit in stunned amazement, wondering why their ratings can never approach those of Fox News?

Heck, even as a strong Trump supporter…I might tune into a TV channel when Biden has a “rally”…just for amusement, if I can make enough popcorn, but I would not want to be counted as a “Biden supporter” because i watched it! However, if democrats tuned into the Trump Rally & really watched & listened to it, they could be converted to Trumpers! Not likely, the other way around.

Is that supposed to compensate for all the people that didn’t show up at the rally?
