Enough About The K-Pop Prank!

[ProfessorGAC]

Those people could have pranked to their heart's content, and it would have affected nothing, IF...

Parscale & PINO weren't stupid enough to announce ridiculous numbers. Yep, they shut up and just go to Tulsa, and it would have not been worse, & likely better.

Those two geniuses scared away potential attendees by conjuring vision of a few hundred thousand people showing up. It was boundless stupidity to announce a number that would intimidate some people into staying away.

On top of that, PINO sent his dumbass tweet about how protestors would be handled. He put the idea of violent trouble in the minds of his nonviolent drones.

They chased their own crowd away!

It was not the teenagers that caused this. They were a contributing cause.

It was the incompetent gang in the WH that caused it.

We, and the media, should be blasting that they did this to themselves. Idiots doing idiot things.

1. Yeah... while I love the idea that

A bunch of teenagers went out of their way to virtually troll the Trump campaign... if people really wanted to go, if the campaign had been on the ball, this would have had little effect. Enjoy that there are teens rejecting his message... but let’s acknowledge that 6000 people showing up to a rally where they expected to fill a 20,000 seat theater and a large overflow section is significant. It means they are vastly overestimating the support they still have. Chalking it all up to kids trolling lets them off the hook way too easy and gives them a handy excuse. Maybe... they’re just not that into you.

2. K & R

Trump failed.

[fleur-de-lisa]

3. Yes! We will keep discussing it as long as it continued

to cause humiliation for Trump.

4. "It was the incompetent gang in the WH that caused it."

Trump lost his base.

5. This prank narrative lets Team Trump off the hook, somewhat. I'm surprised they are disputing it.

I would expect them to cry left wing radical conspiracy and place the blame on "outsiders".

Instead, they seem to be embracing the truth; that not many of their supporters cared enough to show.

6. Exactly

The K-Pop thing was a genius prank. And while it may have lulled the campaign into a false sense of security, the campaign screwed up royally by failing to get just 20,000 of their own supporters to show up. No matter what the K-Pop folks did, if the campaign had been even moderately competent, they would have had an overflow crowd.

7. HORSESHIT with a cherry on top.

Since when are Parscale and PINO not STUPID enough to announce ridiculous numbers?

[ProfessorGAC]

8. Did Not Mean To Imply Otherwise

I did say "if". I know! Big "if", there.
I think I was implying how stupid they are. With a big, if!

[Midnightwalk]

9. Every negative angle helps

They couldn’t get more than 6000 people to show up when they bragged about a million.

They also got bamboozled by a bunch of teen agers. Can’t trust them to manage giving out free tickets? Can’t trust them to run the country.

It’s marketing not arithmetic. I love that the argument is about which story makes them look worse.
