(I'm nowhere near Detroit, so I'm not really in a position to say much. I'm just going by the published reports and footage here.)
Kamala held a rally in Detroit today, for "a crowd of more than 200 gathered in Western International High School's gymnasium." [Detroit News] Here is the rally from Kamala's official YouTube feed:
A high school gym? Yep. In a city of 630,000 you'd think that she could draw be a bigger crowd.
And the childish graphics in the background is not a good look.
Kamala speaks for 7 minutes, entirely pablum, starts out sounding psychotic, then calms down, and then leaves.
Ms. Lizzo speaks for 4-1/2 minutes. "They say that if Kamala wins then the whole country will be like Detroit." Not the best.
And this...
I can't believe this is such a mess of a campaign.

Flying back home this morning, my wife saw Air Force Two, but that's as close as we're getting to any rallies.

They don't need Kamala to draw crowds. All they need is to harvest ballots.

Don't be silly. Kamala's mass rallies are by invitation only!
Wouldn't want those "Christ is Lord" types showing up by accident again.

Trump rallies are different than Kamala rallies.
This one was in the Republican stronghold of LONG ISLAND:

And this Trump in the Republican stronghold of DETROIT a couple of days ago.
How does Trump generate so much more enthusiasm than Kamala in a place like Detroit? The last time a Republican was elected mayor of Detroit was 1957. Is it possible that Republicans have more support in cities than we presume? Is it possible that our elections don't measure public sentiment as precisely as we might like?
If Kamala "wins", which I presume she will, a lot of people are going to have a lot of questions...
