POS trump's LOSING: Trump’s Vow To Rally In ‘Biggest Stadium In Texas’ Falls 94,000 Seats Short Twitter users mock the president for booking a modest arena instead of a large stadium for his Ted Cruz event. 10/16/2018 04:29 am ET By Ed Mazza huffingtonpost.com Over the summer, President Donald Trump vowed to hold a “ major rally” for Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) in “ the biggest stadium in Texas we can find.” What they eventually chose was about 94,000 seats short of the mark. Trump’s Oct. 22 event for the senator he used to routinely mock as “Lyin’ Ted” will be held at the NRG Arena in Houston, which seats about 8,000. The Trump campaign told the Dallas News that no larger venues were available on that date. That would presumably include Texas A&M University’s Kyle Field, home of the Aggies and the biggest stadium in Texas, with a capacity of more than 102,000. Given the number of other large stadiums throughout in Texas, critics on Twitter were quick to mock Trump for falling so far short of the mark: Matthew Yglesias ?@mattyglesias Having promised the biggest stadium in Texas for his Ted Cruz rally, Trump is instead delivering the third-largest event space in the NRG Park complex. 5:00 PM - Oct 15, 2018 1,275 353 people are talking about this Twitter Ads info and privacy Richard Frankel@frankelrichard1 Replying to @jeneps BREAKING: Trump declares NRG Arena to be the largest in Texas. 4:39 PM - Oct 15, 2018 45 See Richard Frankel's other Tweets Twitter Ads info and privacy Texas Chain Scott Massacre ?@scottmbeggs Replying to @mattyglesias Low NRG? 5:49 PM - Oct 15, 2018 141 See Texas Chain Scott Massacre's other Tweets Twitter Ads info and privacy pollyd@TheDesignerd Replying to @mattyglesias 9:16 PM - Oct 15, 2018 63 See pollyd's other Tweets Twitter Ads info and privacy Sean O'Leary@stholeary Replying to @jeneps It's not even in the Top 5 for Houston. 9:17 PM - Oct 15, 2018 34 See Sean O'Leary's other Tweets Twitter Ads info and privacy An Old Dog@carpediembud Replying to @jeneps @tictoc The facility serves as the primary horse competition facility for the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo.
