Thousands Of New Yorkers Gather Outside MSG Ahead Of Historic Trump Rally

Thousands of New Yorkers have gathered outside the historic Madison Square Garden arena hours ahead of former President Donald Trump’s rally in the deep blue stronghold.

Trump supporters sporting red MAGA caps were not deterred by the chilly weather, as supporters started to line up a full 24 hours ahead of the former president’s rally, which sold out in less than three hours. The line could be seen stretching as far as the eye can see hours ahead of the former president’s expected arrival at 5 p.m. Eastern Time.

The Trump-Vance Campaign has stated that the rally is expected to draw more than 20,000 supporters. In addition to former President Trump, speakers will include J.D. Vance, House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA), Rudy Giuliani, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and several others.

“We sold it out in less than three hours. But people are going to come anyway. We have big screens outside. It’s going to be unbelievable. So come anyway. I mean, come, maybe you get in, I don’t know, but it sold out very quickly,” Trump said in a recent interview with Breitbart News. “It’s fantastic. It’s going to be fantastic.”

Madison Square Garden is widely known as the “world’s most famous arena” due to the large number of historic events, both in the world of entertainment and politics.

Trump has held a number of rallies in blue states this campaign cycle, thanks in part to Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s dubious hush money case against him. In addition to touring areas of The Bronx during the court proceedings, Trump held a historic rally in the borough back in May. The rally brought a capacity crowd to Crotona Park, in addition to an overflow crowd that spanned multiple city blocks.

The Republican nominee will also be holding a rally in Virginia — a state that could be according to a recent poll from Quantus Insights — alongside Republican Governor Glenn Youngkin.
