CORRECTION: This story originally noted that Trump failed to fill the stadium today in Wyoming. However, by the time the former president spoke, the stadium was filled, as reporter Bryan Schott notes here. Raw Story regrets the error.
Less than one week after Donald Trump's grudgefest in Georgia was rejected by Republican voters, the former president traveled to Casper, Wyoming as he seeks to oust Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) for objecting to his efforts to overturn the 2020 election.
The rally was attended by Reps. Andy Biggs (R-AZ), Lauren Boebert (R-CO), Kat Cammack (R-FL), and Matt Gaetz (R-FL).
House GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) did not attend, but sent a video message that was booed by Trump's MAGA base.
Bryan Schott, a reporter for the Salt Lake Tribune, posted a picture from the arena 30 minutes before the program was scheduled to begin.
Olivia Nuzzi, Washington correspondent for New York Magazine, posted multiple photos showing empty seats after the time Trump was scheduled to appear.
As Bryan Schott noted later, the stadium filled when Trump finally spoke.
