Nebraska Trump rally turn out of 29,000 people was a 'wake-up moment for the media'

Sky News US political commentator Joe Hockey says when 29,000 people turned up for a Trump rally in Nebraska the other day, it was a wake-up moment for the media.

“It is extraordinary, it’s almost like a cult movement and he’s like a cult leader and people are coming out in vast numbers,” Mr Hockey said.

Mr Hockey said Trump went to five cities across the country on Sunday, and people in Florida were queued up waiting for his arrival from 7am right through until beyond 11:30pm.

“It is building a momentum, there’s no doubt about that,” he said.

“He is hungry and it shows. He really wants people votes and that’s given him momentum in the last 48 hours.

“It’s really hard to read the impact of that momentum on the electoral votes.”
