President Donald Trump will hold a campaign rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma, on Saturday evening.
Stay tuned to Breitbart News for live updates. All times eastern.
10:59 PM: On CNN, Biden co-chair Rep. Cedric Richmond (D-LA) said he hopes Trump holds a rally every day because it’s “just a guy having a temper tantrum.” Trump campaign says Biden can only dream of the online audience Trump is able to attract for his events.
The Trump campaign is out with a post-rally statement, touting their digital reach. “These numbers represent unmatched enthusiasm behind the President’s re-election and a massive audience that Joe Biden can only dream of,” @TimMurtaugh writes. pic.twitter.com/j5PMqeso5U

After a rant about how he can *definitely* drink a glass of water normally, Pres. Trump demonstrated by taking a sip and flinging a half-full cup across the stage. Supporters at his rally in Tulsa, OK erupted into cheers. pic.twitter.com/XzCMstsfoc

One thing Trump did NOT do tonight: He did NOT brag about his crowd size.
He ALWAYS talks about the "thousands" outside who couldn't get in.
But not tonight. He knew how deserted it was outside and even he didn't dare lie about it.

9:48 PM: Trump says he loves when Democrats want “open borders” because anyone there is something wrong with anyone who supports people from “rough areas” coming in through open borders. He wants an immigration system that puts American workers first. Trump says “it’s damn nice to have arms” when you see “lunatics” protesting in the streets.
9:47 PM: Trump says the economy was booming until “China sent us the plague” as he goes into his standard closing remarks.
9:43 PM: Trump talks about all the good he has done for Black employment. He talks about working closely with Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC), “a friend of theirs,” on opportunity zones.
Trump says he's directed the Interior Secretary "to put the John Hope Franklin Reconciliation Park here in Tulsa on the African American Civil Rights Network."

9:39 PM: Trump predicts the economy is going to up and up and up in the next three months and people are going to realize Trump is doing a good job. He says voters will realize things will go south if Democrats control the country. He says next year will be the single greatest economic year we’ve ever had.
9:26 PM: Trump says he didn’t lose the “DACA case” because he is just going to refile. Trump says everything is going to work out for the young people, many of whom are not even young anymore. He now says AOC wants Oklahoma to be petroleum-free and the country will have “no energy, nothing.” He says Oklahoma, Texas, North Dakota and many others will be out of business when AOC is in charge of Biden’s energy policy. He says he has done more for the Black community in four years than Joe Biden has done in 47 years. He says “racial justice begins with Joe Biden’s retirement from public life.”
He’s not talking about Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) and says she would like to make the government of the United States like Somalia. No government. No police. No nothing. Just anarchy. “No thank you,” Trump says, predicting a big victory in Minnesota.
Trump says Biden is a “Trojan Horse” for socialism. He says Obama took him off of the trash heap and now mocks Biden for plagiarism and being a “shameless hypocrite.” He says Biden gave eulogies for segregationists and is now smearing Trump supporters he has never met as “racists.” He says American should not take lessons on race from “Sleepy Joe” Biden. He says Biden shipped millions of jobs of Black Americans overseas while hollowing out the middle class, including the Black middle class, with immigration. Trump says the “cages” at the border were built by Obama and Biden.
"Joe Biden is a shameless hypocrite," says President Trump in Tulsa.
"He has delivered fawning eulogies… of 3 leading supporters of segregation, including a former member of the KKK, and yet Biden is now smearing as racist tens of millions of… Americans who he's never met" pic.twitter.com/mG1ajr2bz4

9:16 PM: Trump says Joe Biden “will always let you down” before saying Biden opposed killing Soleimani and the raid that killed bin Laden. Trump says Biden has always been on the wrong side of history and has never made a correct foreign policy decision. Trump says Iran and China want Biden to win badly because they will “own” America. Trump now on to Hunter Biden and Ukraine. He says the emboldened left will launch a “full-scale assault” on American life if Biden becomes president. He says they will indoctrinate your children with hateful and vicious lies about the country, take away guns, and subsidize after-birth abortions.
"Virtually every policy that has hurt Black Americans for half a century, Joe Biden has supported or enacted," President Trump tells the massive crowd in Tulsa, Oklahoma.#TulsaTrumpRally pic.twitter.com/ydCJnYqfJL

9:12 PM: Trump says rioters and looters will have more rights in “Joe Biden’s America” than “law-abiding citizens.” He’s speaking about MS-13 and the chaos in liberal cities. He says the chaos is coming to every city if he loses the White House. He says Joe Biden’s record can be summed up with four decades of betrayal and calamity. He says Biden supported every “globalist attack on America” and wanted to make every country rich except for America.
9:08 PM: Trump says 2020 is about whether you want to “bow before the left-wing mob or stand tall and proud as Americans.”
Trump says he will never kneel before the National Anthem. He says he thought the battle was on. Trump says it took the NFL a lot of time to “win you back.” Trump says Democrats want to punish thoughts but not violent crimes.
8:56 PM: Trump now talking about another NASDAQ record. And 401Ks. Trump says if the country doesn’t do anything stupid in November, the country will have the “greatest economic year” ever next year. He says if Democrats gain power, then the rioters will be in charge and “no one will be safe” and nobody will have control.
He says Biden is just a “helpless puppet” of the radical left.
Trump says Biden has never been “radical left” (he also doesn’t think Biden is on the “radical left”) but the radical left just controls him.
Trump says the left will do whatever it takes to stop his campaign. Trump claims a bunch of “maniacs” tried to disrupt the rally.
Trump, in Tulsa, says his supporters are not as violent but it won’t be pretty for the other side if something ever happened.
!! Trump says if his supporters ever got violent, "it would be a terrible, terrible day for the other side"

8:51 PM: Trump now back to left-wing radicals tearing down Thomas Jefferson statues and beheading Columbus statues except for when Italians (“I love Italians) surrounded statues and saved them. He rips left-wing radicals for tearing down a George Washington statue and wrapping it in a burning American flag. Trump wants anyone who burns the flag to go to jail for one year.
"We ought to come up with legislation that if you burn the American flag you go to jail for one year … if somebody wants to burn the American flag and stomp on it, but just burn it, they go to jail for one year" — Trump pic.twitter.com/sbETQDwUkp

Trump also wants Washington Gov. Inslee to ask him to help Seattle get rid of CHAZ/CHOP. Trump now says Biden doesn’t control the “radical maniacs.” He says when he isn’t confusing his wife with his sister he is saying, “get me out of here.”
8:47 PM: Trump now talking about how he wanted to just wet his lips with water at West Point because he was “working hard.” He says he didn’t want to get water on the tie. He is now drinking water with one hand. He says the media gave him another disease after West Point. Crowd is chanting “Trump! Trump!” after he sipped water.
8:42 PM: Trump babbling about walking down the West Point ramp. He apparently has never heard of Barbara Streisand.
Here's Trump mocking himself for the way he walked down a ramp at West Point last weekend. He's been talking about this for about 6 or 7 minutes now. pic.twitter.com/dsj0cDFxfY
— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) June 21, 2020
He is now mimicking his walk and says he didn’t like the fact that he was “bent over” and says his opponents will use the image in ads. Trump says he looked “very handsome” while walking down the ramp and didn’t want to fall in front of the media.
At least 10 minutes, right? https://t.co/8CjJAC6W6q

NYT’s Haberman having fun with this rally:
8:32 PM: Trump now says: “Let’s open the schools, please.” He says “we gotta get them open” in the fall.
Now he says the unhinged left-wing mob is trying to desecrate history, tear down statues, and cancel and punish anyone who does not absolutely conform to their agenda. He talks about their “cruel campaign of censorship and exclusion” that tries to “demolish our heritage.”
He says the left also wants to defund the police. He says he first thought the left was only kidding but they aren’t if you look at what’s going on in Minneapolis. He talks about bad “hombres” breaking windows in Minneapolis. Trump says these people are “stone-cold crazy.”
