Trump Rally Roulette: Desert Stranding Edition
So, Trump throws a rally in Coachella, right? You know, Coachella Valley — the place famous for music festivals, good vibes, and, ironically, people not exactly in his political fan club. And what does he do? He goes there, gets everyone all fired up, and then leaves his own supporters stranded in the desert! I mean, that’s like inviting someone to a party and then stealing their shoes. “Hey, thanks for coming, but I’ll be taking your ride home!”
See, here’s the thing: this isn’t some logistical whoopsie-daisy. No, this is a pattern. A pattern that says, “Hey, if you’re in a blue state, don’t expect a red carpet!” Trump’s got a habit of treating his rallies in non-Republican states like an afterthought. You know, “Thank you for your applause, now fend for yourselves!” They were bused five miles into the desert, left with a couple of busted buses, and — surprise, surprise — they ran out of gas! Can you imagine? You’re waiting two hours, in the desert, in the middle of the night, just to get back to your car. And you gotta wonder: did the campaign budget for bus fuel, or did they decide to save those pennies for a more “Republican-friendly” stop?
See, if this were a rally in, let’s say, Florida or Texas, you better believe there’d be enough buses. Heck, they’d probably have a fleet of air-conditioned limos ready to ferry people back to their cars. But California? A deep-blue state? Forget it. There, it’s a different ball game, folks. It’s like the campaign said, “Ah, California voters? We’ll give ’em the cheap package. Bus ’em out, let ’em bake a bit, and if they really believe in the cause, they’ll walk it out!”
And this isn’t the first time he’s left people out in the cold — or, in this case, the scorching desert. Remember Omaha in 2020? Freezing temperatures, supporters stranded for hours because there weren’t enough buses. It’s like a one-man crusade to see how much his fans can take. First, they were frozen; now, they’re fried. Next up, he’s gonna make them swim through crocodile-infested waters to get to the parking lot, just to see who’s really dedicated.
Let’s face it: Trump’s rallies are all about bang-for-buck. In Republican states, he rolls out the red carpet. In battlegrounds, he invests big because he needs those votes. But in states where he’s got nothing to gain? He’s pinching pennies like he’s got a parking meter to beat. And that’s where the Coachella rally comes in. Not enough buses, no plan for fuel, and people left stranded. It’s cost-cutting at its finest. He gets his applause, and after that? Well, tough luck, folks!
So there’s the takeaway: if you’re in a non-Republican state and you go to a Trump rally, don’t expect a five-star experience. In fact, bring your walking shoes, a flashlight, maybe even a little tent, because when the lights go down, you might just be camping out. And that, folks, is the fine print on the Trump rally experience in a blue state.
