Trump just tweeted that he's rescheduling the Tulsa rally for June 20th

Thread starting here, full text below:

Link to tweet

We had previously scheduled our #MAGA Rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma, for June 19th – a big deal. Unfortunately, however, this would fall on the Juneteenth Holiday. Many of my African American friends and supporters have reached out to suggest that we consider changing the date out...

...of respect for this Holiday, and in observance of this important occasion and all that it represents. I have therefore decided to move our rally to Saturday, June 20th, in order to honor their requests...

...We have already had ticket requests in excess of 200,000 people. I look forward to seeing everyone in Oklahoma!

That is a lie.

It was rescheduled because of the backlash. It was rescheduled because he and the Trump Klan got called out on their racist bullshit.

Every single word from this asshole is a lie.

And media attention. They should ignore this rally instead of helping him promote it. He knows how badly he's doing in the polls and is why he's so desperate to get these propaganda rally's going again. Then have the media help him spread the lies for him.
