On every local news outlet's coverage, nearly every comment from a Red Vote is some version of "why are you blaming Trump for Omaha's mistakes", "Trump doesn't own our broken public transit system (maybe he should!!)", "they knew it was cold and they chose patriotism", "yeah well where was social distancing when BLM was in our streets?", "they are adults they can take care of themselves it's not Trump's responsibility to treat grown ups like 8 year olds and hold their hands all the way home" etc. etc.


If that's the local response, including from people who attended the event (it wasn't that bad, if you weren't wearing a coat and hat that's your fault, this is Nebraska after all, the event itself was amazing, and if you weren't patient it's only a 4 mile walk to the parking lot!) I can only assume the national response to this is a lot of Democrats going "see?! see?!" and a lot of Republicans going "wow, Omaha sure wasn't prepared for the massive numbers of a Trump rally"
