All The Best Reactions To K-Pop Stans And TikTok Teens Absolutely Tanking Trump’s Tulsa Rally
The fact that Nickelback filled more seats in the BOK Arena than Trump did with free tickets says a lot.
In case you missed it, K-Pop stans and TikTok teens just pulled off the biggest troll on Donald Trump.
After a Mary Jo Laupp — an ex-staffer on Pete Buttigieg’s campaign — shared how to reserve free tickets to Donald Trump’s upcoming Tulsa rally a little over a week ago, teens and stans across the globe banded together to reserve enough tickets for the expected attendance to reach over one million.
This inflated attendance number excited Trump’s administration, with even the president tweeting about his record number rally numbers. In reality, however, less than 6,200 people actually showed up to his Tulsa event with the 19,000-seat capacity BOK Centre looking mighty empty.
Almost One Million people request tickets for the Saturday Night Rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma!

The Trump campaign said recently that over one million tickets were requested for the Tulsa rally, the first rally in months due to covid-19.
Trump proclaimed that there wouldn’t be an empty seat.

After the embarrassing difference made its way online, Trump’s campaign manager tried to blame COVID-19 and “radical protesters” — who were allegedly blocking people from entering the arena — for the low number of attendees.
The lack of numbers inside the arena was also felt outside, as the outdoor event for the expected overflow crowd was cancelled at the last-minute and moved indoors.
Sadly for Trump, even with TikTok teens and K-Pop stans rallying together to inflate attendance numbers, the tickets were still free to reserve and were uncapped. This means that the Trump supporters who wanted to go could’ve easily still registered their interest and attended the event to fill arena capacity and overflow crowd areas. However, as we all saw, they clearly did not.
Not sure why people aren’t getting that the Kpop kids only made trump think a million people were trying to come. They had nothing to do with the fact that only 6200 showed up. Trump sucks all on his own.

Actually you just got ROCKED by teens on TikTok who flooded the Trump campaign w/ fake ticket reservations & tricked you into believing a million people wanted your white supremacist open mic enough to pack an arena during COVID
Shout out to Zoomers. Y’all make me so proud. ☺️ https://t.co/jGrp5bSZ9T

As a result of this lack of real support by his “fans”, Donald Trump has, yet again, become the internet’s biggest laughing stock as he let zoomers, TikTok teens and K-Pop stans crush his ego and ruin his precious little rally.
In honour of this, here are all the best reactions to the youth absolutely tanking the Tulsa rally:

Wait, kids on TikTok reserved the empty seats at Trumps rally?
The President was publicly trolled by our children. Have an extra drink tonight parents, you’ve done well.— kelly oxford (@kellyoxford) June 21, 2020
Trump is as sad this morning as when the Tiger King found out Carole Baskin owns his zoo.

Boomers: You lousy Zoomers can’t do anything
Millennials: You’re just TikTok and even more crushing financial dislocation
Gen X: Show em what you got, kids
Zoomers: (weaponize K-Pop stans to destroy a Trump rally)
Gen X: I love my kids— Dylan Wilbanks, Social Distancing Human Grumpy Cat (@dylanw) June 21, 2020
Just last year Nickelback played a sold out show at the BOK in Tulsa.
Tonight Donald Trump couldn't even fill it with free tickets. pic.twitter.com/z4WzsBzHYW

My 14 year old, at breakfast in Britain: "Oh, yeah, Dad. I did that too. I registered for three tickets to the Trump rally in Tulsa."

And the #NoblePrize goes to #MaryJoLaupp, a 51-year-old grandmother living in Fort Dodge, Iowa, who showed the TikTok kids how to go to Trump's website, register to attend the event — and then not show up. Genius!!

OMG y'all. I ran in to tell my son (14yo) how Gen Z (his gen) punked @realDonaldTrump w/ticket plan on TikTok and IG!
My son in the middle of scrolling through TikTok: "Yeah, I know Mom. I ordered one of the tickets. That was the plan. Our plan worked."#TrumpRally #GenZ
