Trump kicked off his Michigan event on the heels of Kamala Harris' rally with Beyoncé in Houston.
Trump said:
My opponent had one of these last night and they trafficked with people like Beyoncé. Beyoncé spoke for a few minutes and then left. The place went crazy. They booed everyone. They thought he was going to give a speech.
My rival got up and started talking. They whistled at him. It's crazy. They had to use people and they send buses. We do not use buses. We're just going to make America great again. I thought I'd tell you that story because you'll never hear it on fake news. They don't talk about it. They wouldn't tell you stories like that.

Everything Trump said it never happened.
Here's how Kamala Harris responded received in Houston.
This standing ovation for Kamala Harris in Houston is insane. Harris opens. “We are fighting for freedom.” pic.twitter.com/jCakrZLXC8

There was no Bulgarian. People did not leave.
Do you know where people were going?
Trump's planned rally in Traverse City, MI last night after he was three and a half hours late and kept his supporters waiting in the cold.
Donald Trump is clearly shaken by what happened in Houston, so he's trying to downplay it and make up a fictional version of the rally.
Trump sounds increasingly desperate. He's never faced an opponent that can draw the kind of crowds that turn out for Kamala Harris, and the stress is showing on Trump.
