Thousands Of Seats Reportedly Unsold At Trump And Bill O'Reilly's Orlando Event---
There were supposed to be "Big crowds!" for Trump and O'Reilly's "History Tour" in Florida.
Not so much, the Orlando Sentinel reports.
Most tickets for the tour are priced from $100 to $300, but “special access” tickets, which include an opportunity to meet and pose for photos with Trump and O’Reilly, sold for up to $8,500, reported Business Insider.
Tickets for the Orlando event were going for as little $40 the day of Trump’s appearance, noted the Orlando Sentinel.

Re: the cheap seats....
One thing to understand about the working-class right - they don’t spend their own money. Trump could fill arenas only if the seats were free. Conservatives never put their own money into things - they let the ultra-rich and the corporations fund the right.
I did predict this - that Trump would try to monetize his rallies - and the right wouldn’t show up if they had to pay. This isn’t to say that he’s lost support, just that they don’t want to put their own money down.

Re: the cheap seats....
I'm bad at these odds making things and don't try, but I really think he's not going to run in 2024.
However, being the perennial con man he is, he won't say that, so at least for the next three years he can keep milking the rubes and marks. Hanging off his BS. If he said he's not gonna run, these rallies would have less than less than zero. Look, he's going to monetize these rallies now that he's no longer "really" a candidate and can get away with it ... all he really wants is the rubes' green. I think you're totally right, though, on him maybe overestimating how many of these people really will pay.
No, what worries me is there are many clearly seeking to be his Sith Disciple, and are not as dumb (outside of the ability to con), and my governor appears to be one. He's gonna ban critical race theory in public schools ... another brave moron trying to ban something that doesn't exist. Sigh, but of course, Qtrumplicans will eat it up.
I'm not sure how much in the future we have to worry about Trump. He think he just wants to continue milking the presidency, building his SEC scam of a media company,. milking the rubes, and enjoying his little kingmaker role in primaries. But TrumpISM - unfortunately - is here to stay and I think more than one person in the R primaries is going to be vying to be seen as its torch holder.

I would give anything for you to be right because I think even DeSantis won’t be as successful as he was in corralling the horrible people into one big vote.ProfX wrote: ↑Fri Dec 17, 2021 8:50 am I'm bad at these odds making things and don't try, but I really think he's not going to run in 2024.

Re: the cheap seats....
I agree that Trump isn't going to run in 2024. He's using his position as the leader of the republican party to make money off them. Trump is a grifter and he's somehow convinced the republican National Committee to pay part of his private business legal fees.ProfX wrote: ↑Fri Dec 17, 2021 8:50 am I'm bad at these odds making things and don't try, but I really think he's not going to run in 2024.

For those candidate who make the trip to Mar-a-Lago they need to make sure his diaper is clean before they kiss the blessed ass of Trump.

Re: the cheap seats....
How I wish.
What I think will happen is as follows:
Nov 2022 red state officials will not certify or attempt to any election they lose, causing chaos and violence...
Around this time the worst decision in social media will be made and Twitter will allow the traitor back on, his candidacy will grow exponentially again like it did the first time, he will run and whether he wins or not, it will end democracy because of what will happen if he doesnt win.
I want to be wrong, but I figured I would say it now and get it out of the way. Indictments or death from natural causes are the only way our country survives.
I saw Fugelsang saying he hopes trump is the nominee because he will lose for the 3rd time..I agree it would be the 3rd time, but winning isnt the goal anymore when you can refuse to acknowledge the outcome.

Re: the cheap seats....
That's because the tithing to their churches is also considered "charitable giving". Plus, the only way that charitable giving can be tracked is by tax deductions. I don't care to report my giving for deductions. That's not what charity is about, now, is it?Glennfs wrote: ↑Sat Dec 18, 2021 7:50 am Except studies show that conservatives are significantly more charitable than liberals

Re: the cheap seats....
I don't consider dues to your club to be charity. Do you think building this is a charity compared to giving to cure cancer?
Wow you had to go back twenty-five years? Why do you complain when I go back?Btw in 1997 I gave more to charity than Al Gore
https://www.cnn.com/ALLPOLITICS/1998/04/15/gore.taxes/
I gave more to real charities than Donald Trump. Remember that the people that gave to HIS charity (in which he bought paintings of himself with) took it off their taxes too.
Re: the cheap seats....
I just saw that in Texas they are only selling 5000 to 6000 tickets. I wonder how long before Trump blames O'Reily for the lack of sales.
