JAKARTA - Social media is showing its strength again. Where netizens, both TikTok users and K-Pop fans, joined forces to sabotage the campaign event for President of the United States (US) Donald Trump in Tulsa, Oklahoma on Saturday, June 20 yesterday.
They even managed to make Trump's political campaign event deserted from the masses of the audience. This happens because TikTok users and K-Pop fans are busy registering online to get free tickets from Trump's campaign events. But on the D-day, they didn't come.
Actually you just got ROCKED by teens on TikTok who flooded the Trump campaign w / fake ticket reservations & tricked you into believing a million people wanted your white supremacist open mic enough to pack an arena during COVIDShout out to Zoomers. Y'all make me so proud. ☺️ https://t.co/jGrp5bSZ9T

The reason for doing this is as a form of protest against Trump's policies, which often make hate speech on social media. This has initiated TikTok users to make Trump campaign events, which are usually busy, become quiet, as a form of prank.
President Trump's campaign team manager Brad Parscale said the event had received more than one request for free tickets, but in fact the event, which took place at the 19,000-seat Bank of Oklahoma BOK Center in Tulsa, saw many empty seats. As summarized from the New York Times.

Meanwhile, K-Pop fans on social media also commented on Trump's campaign which was empty of visitors, even though it was held at the Tulsa Stadium, Oklahoma. They compared it to the BTS concert which was also held at the stadium during the Rose Bowl event.

Surely this is a crushing blow to the Trump presidential election campaign team. The reason is that netizens succeeded in sabotaging the event until it was quiet from the masses of Trump supporters and sympathizers.
"American teenagers have taken a big blow against @realDonaldTrump," commented Republican strategist Steve Schmidt.
