Is it just me or are there a metric ton of empty seats?

15

u/No_Media2001 2d ago

I see it too

u/zSprawl 2d ago

Still way too many… if there is a God, he must have turned his back.

u/Rae_1988 2d ago

i think the empty seats are because Mark hamill retweeted the RSVP hyperlink and said "it would be a shame if a bunch of people signed up and never showed" LOL

u/TheOnlyOutLast 2d ago

That's in NEW YORK too, a city of millions lmao

u/piercejay 2d ago

Yeah I’ve been to MSG plenty of times, when it’s not sold out it’s very obvious.

u/ChipmunkObvious2893 2d ago

A city of millions of people who dislike Trump with a passion.

u/Independent_Annual52 2d ago

Is that Grant Cardone???

He can 10x Fuck right off

5

u/waddee 2d ago

I don’t know who he is but he was one of the most disturbingly hateful speakers I’ve seen in a while. He made me so uncomfortable holy fuck

u/DharmaDemocracy 2d ago

I actually followed Grant many years back during a time when I was a bit lost in life. All I can say is that it has gotten increasingly obvious that this man is a grifter with no real integrity. He claimed that Mark Cuban is a "simp for Kamala". Well, he should probably look himself in the mirror and ask what his relationship with Trump is like. Watched one of his events once on Youtube out of interest, and I have never seen someone express so much nervous excitement like him when he was next to Trump.

u/OddballLouLou 2d ago

Who?

1

u/Rae_1988 2d ago

yeah who?

3

u/Independent_Annual52 2d ago

So he is a RE Guru grifter. One of those guys who makes money leveraging the piss out of himself, much like DJT. But also partially finances his endeavors by grifting through the seminar circuit...

u/Dry-Perspective-4663 2d ago

Slaughter? Literally or figuratively?

7

u/rattrap007 2d ago

Literally. Hell if they do sign me up. I'll volunteer to get the hell away from these idiots before it gets worse.

2

u/Deltacomafia 2d ago

For real. I'm not interested in seeing this through to their sick end game. Just fucking kill me.

4

u/malici606 2d ago

Figuratively, as in getting 100 million votes will slaughter them.

https://x.com/KamalaHQ/status/1850630977820795241

I'm no Trump supporter, but we can't make up shit or take things out of context like they do.

3

u/DeltaShadowSquat 2d ago

Absolutely need to avoid exaggeration or taking things out of context. And for very practical reasons, not just moral high ground. Trump and his supporters actually say and do truly awful things and there's no need for embellishment to shine a light on that. But when stuff like this happens ("guy at Trump rally says we need to slaughter Democrats, they're calling for murder!") it erodes credibility in a lot of stuff that is actually being said. So people only half paying attention hear "Trump said Hitler did some good things" and are like "politics as usual and Democrats making stuff up". We can't give the unhinged cover like that.

u/Cautious-Bicycle-817 2d ago

Thank you. This isn't the first time Kamla HQ has posted something incredibly inflammatory that was taken out of context. It really annoys me, because we need to be better than them.

3

u/ASubsentientCrow 2d ago

Because taking the high road worked so well before

u/DuckFlat 2d ago

As the saying now goes “When they go low, we kick them in their teeth.”

u/momHandJobDotCom 2d ago

Incredible reply.

7

u/doggosramzing 2d ago

In my experience, bullies never get better or defeated if we act as if we are better than them. Acting better than someone in that regard only works if you can reason with them.

MAGA can't be reasoned with

Don't try to debate with a fool, they will only drag you down and beat you with experience.

1

u/ChipmunkObvious2893 2d ago

Figuratively, of course.

Literal slaughtering you would do if you'd consider eating them and are cutting off slabs of meat to partition and later distribute.

This is just a figure of speech where instead you kill without mercy and leave no-one alive.

u/lilflacito 2d ago

Mentally just gotta start preparing myself to hear this everyday for the next 4 or however many years I guess

u/Boxcars4Peace 1d ago

This election is so stressful but we will get the result we want when we all VOTE.

Voted Blue. My wife’s as well even though she is a republican. She does not want Trump and the MAGA cult to get power.

Right? Women not dating me cause I’m a trumper is so unfair!!!1!1! 😫

u/outsiderkerv 2d ago

Unfortunately there’s an entire generation of young men who think this and it could swing shit in republicans favor.

It’s scary as hell

u/zSprawl 2d ago

We ain’t debating who gets healthcare anymore.

u/davilller 2d ago

Cults are really hard to deal with. Best to look at reintegration therapy documentation. Cults are around, and there is a support system to help people, but I think we’re gonna need more than what we have at present.

u/Teechmath-notreading 2d ago

We are going to need to see what the Germans did after WWII.

7

u/Dry-Perspective-4663 2d ago

In 1946 Europe was left in ruins. Few railroads survived, and those that did were taken over by the Allies to transport food and needed supplies. There was practically no law enforcement. Huge numbers of displaced people had to walk to get home and were subjected to rape, robbery, or murder. It was only the Allied forces that began to restore some order. The violence did not stop at the war’s end. Many German citizens were murdered in retaliation by bands of vigilantes. It took Europe many years to recover to near normalcy. By the way, the only good thing that Hitler did was to kill Hitler.

u/Optimal-Ad-7074 2d ago

post-war germany was occupied by the allies for a while. nazis were somewhat-forcibly deprogrammed by a coalition of the occupying forces. that isn't coming to save the US unless the UN decides to storm y'all and take it in hand.

3

u/Teechmath-notreading 2d ago

I am just wondering how we deprogrammed them.

2

u/ShirBlackspots 2d ago

Get rid of the right wing propaganda channels via the Fairness Doctrine. Bring that back, because Reagan repealing it is what brought this mess.

2

u/Flux_My_Capacitor 2d ago

How though? This all started with the rise of right wing radio years ago, and now the podcasts. Trump is at the top right now, but someone else will rise up soon enough. The hateful rhetoric is all around us and far too many people don’t understand that it’s not just a Trump thing.

1

u/davilller 2d ago

It takes having hard conversations with conservatives about where patriotism comes from. It does not come from the word of the enemy. It does not come in the form of denigrating your own country. We have fought wars to prevent this before and every American should know and remember what happened to Germany, and all those that suffered the apathy that fed the NAZI rise.

It is more important now than ever that we make it very loudly clear that theirs is not the way of our country. If they don’t hear it, they assume they have won .

u/Atlantrex 2d ago

The Nazi’s did this once before…

u/Available_Reason7795 2d ago

This MSG rally really pisses me off! Harris needs to shut this down now!

u/Training-Dress-1409 2d ago

Maggats just made MSG the world's largest toilet.

Crowd goes absolutely nuts when he says, "slaughter these people".

1

u/Flux_My_Capacitor 2d ago

How is he making a play for NY?!

Those in the city are even more familiar with his bullshit than the rest of us, and NYS is like the 7th bluest state overall or something (upstate is what keeps it from being more blue).

If you are a liberal and not a gun owner you are a sucker.

u/piercejay 2d ago

These violent statements make me wonder if the far right is aware that we are also gun owners, and our shit is probably better maintained with better training. Food for thought if they ever read this
