Hundreds stranded in the cold waiting for buses in chaotic post-Trump rally scene - CNN

"We need at least 30 more buses," an Omaha police officer said, shaking his head.

The Trump campaign said Wednesday they deployed "double" the number of buses for rallygoers "but local road closures and resulting congestion caused delays."

"We always strive to provide the best guest experience at our events and we care about their safety," said Trump deputy national press secretary Samantha Zager in a statement.

She also said that the Trump campaign provided tents, heaters, generators, hot cocoa and hand warmers, but the problems came after the departure location as people walked to nearby roads to wait for buses.

For months, the Trump campaign has utilized the practice of busing supporters from parking lots to the rally sites as a way to accommodate the large crowds.

His events have been held in locations such as small airports that don't normally draw rally sized crowds and therefore don't have onsite parking available to support the crush of people and crowds.

That has created a scenario where thousands of people are left to wait for hours after the event ends for buses to shuttle them back to their cars.

At an event in Gastonia, North Carolina, last Wednesday hundreds of supporters were forced to make the decision to either wait for the bus or walk several miles down a busy road, without sidewalks, to their parking lots.

Even those who make it on a bus, only do so after a long wait packed in with hundreds of other people -- most not wearing a mask -- until they board the bus where every single seat is taken and no social distancing is practiced.

It's unlikely that any of the rally-goers would change their votes since they count as some of the most committed supporters.
