Former President Donald Trump is not at all convinced by the long held belief that a Republican can’t win the state of New York, which is why he’s holding a massive rally at one of the most famous, historic arenas in the city: Madison Square Garden. The event is scheduled for October 27. If anyone can manage to do the impossible, it’s Trump. The man has survived two assassination attempts and a slew of attacks — legal and in the culture — from angry, edgelords within the radical left, so he’s proven he’s a force to be reckoned with.
A report published by the New York Post revealed that the venue is located between Seventh and Eighth Avenues and 31st to 33rd Street and once hosted the Republican National Convention in 2004 and the Democratic National Convention in 1976, 1980, and 1992.
Here’s more from The Daily Wire:
In September, Trump’s rally at the Nassau Coliseum on Long Island drew roughly 16,000 people, The New York Post noted, adding, “The former president’s Bronx rally over the summer brought up to 10,000 Trump supporters to Crotona Park, which had a permit allowance of 3,500 people.” As far back as February, Trump said of New York, “Do I think we have a chance? New York has changed a lot in the last two years. We have migrants all over the street. They are living on Madison Avenue.”
“Nobody can believe what’s happened to New York,” he stated. “The people of New York are angry. People that would have never voted for me because I’m a Republican. I mean, they’re Democrats. Their parents were Democrats. They would vote for Democrats. I think they’re going to vote for me. So I think we’re going to give New York a heavy shot. They’re very unhappy in New York. What’s happening? And they’re unhappy with the crime. You take a look at the crime in New York, it’s at record levels. The other thing is, and very importantly, New Jersey, I think New Jersey can be flipped. I think that Virginia can be flipped. I think that New Mexico could be flipped. And I think Minnesota could be flipped. And I’m not even sure that everything can’t be flipped.”
Keep in mind, the last time that a GOP presidential candidate won the state of New York was Ronald Reagan. He managed to do it not once, but twice in both 1980 and 1984. Then again, Reagan was, is, and always will be a true legend, especially within the Republican Party. Before him, Richard Nixon won New York in 1972, despite losing it in 1968.
Here’s to hoping Trump can rally people to his campaign by sharing his message of hope for the future of this nation, showcasing how he will fight for the common man in ways the modern liberal never, ever will.
