A rally for former President Donald Trump packed the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum with some 16,000 attendees seated inside, while an estimated 50,000 more filled the overflow areas outside the venue. The event went forward despite speculation following the second reported assassination attempt on Trump's life.
