The show was announced more than a week ago, but ticket sales have been lackluster, to put it mildly. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/news\/2021\/07\/16\/trump-oreilly-tickets-499795\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">According to Politico<\/a><\/strong>&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Donald Trump is having trouble selling advance tickets for his upcoming speaking tour with conservative pundit Bill O\u2019Reilly, according to interviews with ticketing officials for the venues. [&#8230;]<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The events are not until the end of the year, Trump\u2019s camp notes. But so far, the pace of purchases has been slow compared to other acts, arena officials say.

Even though there are only four dates on the tour and all of them in Trump friendly locales. Nevertheless, venues like those in <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ticketmaster.com\/the-history-tour-president-donald-j-dallas-texas-12-19-2021\/event\/0C005AC79AD11C85\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Dallas, Texas<\/a><\/strong>, and <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ticketmaster.com\/the-history-tour-president-donald-j-orlando-florida-12-12-2021\/event\/22005AC9CE64A9ED\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Orlando, Florida<\/a><\/strong>, still have most of the ticket supply available.

Since most of the <em>&#8220;standard&#8221;<\/em> seats priced at about $100 each are unsold, it would mean that they have only sold a couple of thousand seats at premium prices ($1,000 &#8211; $8,500) to the wealthiest and most zealous devotees. That&#8217;s out of a potential 80,000 available seats (approximately 2.5%). This is what happens when Trump disciples, who are accustomed to getting free entry to his cult rallies, are asked to pay substantial admission fees.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps the reason for this failure is that America isn&#8217;t anxiously awaiting to hear from a pair of notorious and abusive perverts. Trump has been accused by more than two dozen women of harassment and\/or assault. O\u2019Reilly was fired by Fox News after some multi-million dollar settlements with his female victims were disclosed. And both are hurting for cash, having lost access to their primary grifting platforms.<\/p>\n<p>Whoever does eventually show up isn&#8217;t going to get anything more the same old clown show that Trump and O&#8217;Reilly have been performing for years. They&#8217;re like an aging 1960&#8217;s band of one-hit-wonders playing the same song over and over again for decades. They won&#8217;t cover anything controversial or newsworthy.
