    I don’t think New Mexico will flip this election. Trump should be more worried about losing classical republican Texas in 2020. It’s on the verge of a flip, that would be huge.

    Compared to Trump and most of the Dems, Kanye’s looking not too bad.

    How's that compare to Captain Bone Spurs? Because a "packed house" means nothing without a definition of what "house" they were in. I.e., if BS packed a 1000 seat banquet hall, vs Warren drawing 20K (in an open air stadium/much higher limit), I'm not so impressed with the "packed" house.

    Unless the link ABM provided was masked (and I didn't see it), I had to look for some kind of numbers. Here is something I found.

    https://www.krqe.com/news/albuquerque-metro/trump-campaign-hopes-win-new-mexico-in-2020/

    which in the article states "Saying he’s fighting for New Mexico, the president believes he can turn New Mexico in 2020. President Trump spoke for about an hour and a half to a capacity crowd at the Santa Ana Star Center in Rio Rancho."

    I edited this because I had misread the quote as saying "half capacity", where it said "hour and half TO a capacity crowd".

    as you were.

    Hmm. Upon further reflection, I'll go with a different rapper.

    The Santa Ana Star Center has a 7,000 seat capcity

    So 7,000 vs 20,000

    The only saving grace of having the worst "president" of all time in trump is, republicans will have no right to bitch about anything since everything they supported and justified was worse than whatever anyone else does.

    So they lost their right to bitch. Sucks for them. Sucks they got brainwashed by trump.

    Such a dumb tweet. Perfect example of a jackass buying into a bullshit narrative and completely missing the mark. Yes, the Republicans are crooked, but it’s all about money. Nobody gives a shit about white supremacy, that’s just more shit to distract people so both parties can keep going to the bank.

    I'm guessing 12,000 - 15,000. Not certain.

    https://heavy.com/news/2019/09/trump-new-mexico-rally-crowd-size-photos/

    Warren will continue to be a big draw. Even though it was in NYC, 20,000 is significant. I think she will continue to pull away from the pack.....while the Dem party continues to veer to the left.....which, overall, I think is a good sign for Trump.

    I don't think the arena had a capacity of 12-15K, considering for a concert it has a capacity of 7K
