President Trump to rally for Senator Cruz next Monday in Houston
KBTX TV, Oct 15, 2018

HOUSTON, Tex. (KBTX)-  With just mere weeks away from a critical midterm election, President Donald Trump is set to appear in Houston for a key battleground rally next Monday.

Trump's camp announced the stop at NRG Arena on Monday, Oct. 22 at 6:30 p.m., according to KTRK-TV in Houston.

People interested in attending can register on the Trump campaign website.

In recent months, Trump has pledged his support to former rival Sen. Ted Cruz, who is in a close re-election race with Democratic challenger Beto O'Rourke. Trump vowed to hold a Cruz rally at the biggest venue possible within the state.

Money.  The Cruz campaign isn't exactly swimming in it.

You book what you can fill, Trump doesn't like empty seats with the press around.

When has Donald Trump ever drawn an empty stadium?

You must be confusing him with Hillary’s deserted campaign venues, where the only commotion there were the sounds of crickets.

Nonsense.  The President will fill the larger stadium during *his* reelection campaign.

This venue is perfect for the Senator....and will be the largest crowd he's ever seen.   happy77

Cruz has been ahead in every poll taken to date.  Trump will help grow the difference, no doubt.  But Cruz has always been winning this race in spite of the massive money dumped into it by democrats.

They always pick one statewide election to try and break the loosing streak.   They haven't won one in decades.

Hate to say it, as a big Cruz supporter.
I am a bigger Astros supporter.
If the game is still on, I'll miss the debate.
Maybe I'll flip back and forth between innings.

Except ... the media is reporting it as Trump is holding a rally for Cruz in a closet.  It maybe liberal media hype, but report after report and station after station is making a tremendous deal out of the size of stadium Trump booked for his rally for Cruz.

Yes Trump normally always packs a stadium and he's done so in the past couple of visits ... why oh why would he not do so for the hottest contest in the mid terms??

BTW haven't been able to find any stats on Cruz's past rallies by the numbers.
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

So what.  They're going to make a "tremendous deal" out of everything the President does.  Don't you know this by now @libertybele ?

Ah, because this isn't the hottest contest in the midterms?  Cruz is ahead by 10 points.

That's because there aren't any.  His best crowds were in the high hundreds.
