(1) Absolutely epic #TeamTrump #PhotoThread for the record-breaking #RedWave #TrumpInHouston rally.
Finally, an arena large enough for a Trump-sized crowd! #VoteGOP #TexasForTrump #DefyHistory #JobsNotMobs

(2) When I say "venue," I'm referring to the whole precinct, inside and out. When I get official info on the indoor venue/arena capacity I will provide it here. Early clips suggest it's quite large, with more people outside of course.
(3) Per the Toyota Center website the arena's capacity for concerts is up to 19k. I'm disappointed yet again that a stadium with >50k capacity wasn't hired, but I know eventually it will be. Might have to wait until #TrumpPence2020!
(4) The Eagle has landed. Doug Mills, NYT photo of Sen Ted Cruz greeting his President on arrival near Houston.
Cruz has been terrific for Trump in office. Primary campaigns are always harsh. They got over it.

(5) Some of the LEOs helping keep everyone safe at the rally today, from Montgomery County and the City of Galveston.
(6) The GOP youtube channel has a video from the tailgater and it looks like they will have a live feed of the rally too.

(8) This man is on my list of potential Presidential contenders after these #TwoTerms. Along with Pence, Pompeo, Haley, Scalise, and others. The GOP has a deep bench, the Dems have none. Obama's ego broke them.
(9) Photos from the line. An estimated 10-15k outside but who really knows until the official numbers after the rally. 100,000 registered for this rally.
(10) These two are gorgeous and their speeches are amazing. Eric has really come into his own lately and appears to be speaking off the cuff, even!
(11) More outside photos. POTUS is less than 10 minutes away from being on stage.
(12) This crowd is pumped.
(13) Houston rally scenes.
(14) "God bless Texas! And God Bless President Donald Trump!" says Sen Ted Cruz as soon as he reaches the podium.
(15) Sen Ted Cruz speaking:
(16) A PERFECTLY timed arrival, announced by Cruz while God Bless The USA is playing, and the crowd's SCREAMING drowns it out.
Trump said "Fantastic!" and hugged him.

(17) I am loving this rally. SO GOOD.
(18) Speaking of the media at the back of the floor: "I know every one of them... and 15% of them are great!"
(19) Brilliant idea! Suggests nominating Hillary to the Supreme Court, knowing how she'd do in the hearings. LOL. (Don't panic, he isnt serious about it!)
(20) Photo of the President's arrival at the Houston rally.
(22) POTUS calls this the election of:
>The caravan
>Kavanaugh
>Law and order
>Tax cuts and
>Common sense.
It sure is! BTW, my face is starting to hurt a little from all the smiling I'm doing watching this rally. Like the #TrumpAche I had on 11/8/16!

(24) Photobombed! Link:
(25) Cruz's speech was the best take-down I've heard of Beto O'Rourke and his socialist policies of destruction.
(26) Pure joy.
(28) Male female young old every-color rich middle poor, red white and blue American patriots.
(29) POTUS is wrapping up his lengthy speech now. The crowd are tired but his energy is reviving them.
(31) Watch the rally here. It was great!
(32) I knew it! No Democrat gets a crowd anything like Trump unless they put on a free concert with A-list celebrity artists.
