O'Rourke's team said there were about 7,000 people at his rally and mile-long march beforehand, per law enforcement. And Bloomberg News reported that O'Rourke's rally had been estimated at 10,000 to 15,000, according to local police. At various points during his own rally, Trump claimed that 69,000 people had RSVP'd and that fire marshals allowed 10,000 people in with "tens of thousands" still watching outside. But NBC News reported that Trump's rally was at its 6,500 capacity with 10,000 to 12,000 watching outside or in overflow areas, per the local police and fire departments.

O'Rourke directly took on Trump over border security and Trump's desire for a wall or other physical barrier. He said El Paso was a peaceful and safe city "because we treat one another with dignity and respect."
"We know that walls do not save lives; walls end lives," O'Rourke also told those gathered at his rally.
He also criticized the Trump administration's treatment of immigrants, from separating children from adults at the border to housing migrants in detention centers, and just a general vilification of the contributions of immigrants.
"We are making a stand for truth against lies and hate and ignorance and intolerance," the potential 2020 Democratic candidate said. "We are going to show the country who we are. We're going to make a stand to ensure that we live up to our promise, to our potential, to our purpose as a country."
"We will not take advantage of them," O'Rourke added about immigrants. "We will not send them back to certain death. We will not believe that walls can or should keep them out. Instead, we welcome them with open arms."
Trump, meanwhile, at his rally painted a much darker image about the possible influx of new immigrants across the border, who he has characterized as bringing drugs and crime. Instead, the president argued that people should be allowed into the country based on merit.
"The Democrat Party has never been more outside the mainstream. They're becoming the party of socialism, late-term abortion, open borders and crime," Trump said. He criticized Democrats for wanting to put a cap on the bed capacity at detention facilities, saying that would be "cutting loose dangerous criminals into our country."
"I will never sign a bill that forces the mass release of criminals into this country," Trump said.

I think Trump's best hope is to take MbS's eventual offer of asylum in Saudi. Would be good for both sides. Trump can stay out of jail and still enjoy his favorite cuisines beacuse they still have McDonalds and KFC there. And America can finally tell Saudi to fuck off. Win-win.Comment
