Trump campaign paid about $2 million for June rally in Tulsa, filings show

President Trump's June campaign rally in Tulsa, Okla., which sported a significantly lower turnout than expected, cost the president's campaign roughly $2 million.

The campaign rally was Trump's return to in-person campaigning, with the coronavirus pandemic forcing most traditional campaigning efforts for both Democrats and Republicans to take place online.

In order to just reserve the BOK Center in downtown Tulsa for the rally, the campaign had to pay more than $500,000, campaign filings submitted Monday reveal.

Then, almost $1 million was spent on "event staging," paying more than $670,000 to Arcus Group; a company named LMG also received more than $425,000 for “audio visual services."

Whatever he does with it is fine by them, as long as his just living & breathing pisses the rest of us off then it's all worth it.

Maybe the bills amounted to $2 million.

With Trump’s rep for stiffing vendors, it may have cost the campaign only half that or less.
