A smart alec gay teen ruined a Trump rally with one spontaneous tweet

A gay teen disrupted a Trump rally with an amazing troll.

Noah, 17, suggested that his followers on Twitter reserve tickets on Donald Trump’s website for his rallies. The tickets are free, Noah said, and the more people who get tickets and don’t go, the more empty seats there will be.

“Hey everyone you totally shouldn’t go on tr*mp’s website and reserve tickets for his rally and not show up so that there’s empty seats (the tickets are free) but you should definitely not do that!!”

The tweet was retweeted over 35,000 times and many of the responses were from people who said that they reserved seats.

But they also pay some people to go to Trump's rallies, so free tickets seems like a ripoff.
