The Failing and Corrupt @nytimes estimated the crowd last night at 1000 people, when in fact it was many times that number - and the arena was rockin. This is the way they demean and disparage. They are very dishonest people who dont get me, and never did!

(7,725 posts)Get gone. That's what we want. He does these things bc he knows the crowd won't be shown and he can bray and give fn another day of stories. I'm so embarrassed we have this thing as our president. The damage will last 50 years. NEVER AGAIN.

(22,156 posts)the actual numbers are. I, by far, believe the NY Times and never ever will believe the liar in chief, already tagged w/ over 3,000+ lies, all in print and/or video, so RUMP can't deny he's lied and lied repeatedly.

He is inadequate in every way possible.

(4,483 posts)and I suspect he does not use the term "get me" either. While the sentiment is surely his, this tweet was written by someone else, someone younger than Trump, trying to sound hip. As further proof, look at that correct punctuation, some of it a little subtle. No way he could've written that.

(11,885 posts)Just like its now being shown what his numbers on deaths in PR were , and we're now finding out it was from 6400 to 7600 killed from the hurricane he purposely ignored helping them. So 1000's from him means maybe hundreds , and others they paid to show up like he did when he announced he was running. All PR and BS from him.

(8,928 posts)Looks like they are already falling off in this picture. Sooner or later people are going to get tired of the same old lies and the rah rah nonsense will slow to a trickle.
What's more telling maybe is the boos Giuliani received at the baseball game the other night.

(36,332 posts)Nashvilles Municipal Auditorium has a capacity of 9,700.

(6,881 posts)Kaleva
(36,332 posts)Even if one considers that some of the arena's maximum capacity was taken up by the stage and security, there still were plenty of seats inside and no crowd outside at all. And as you said, this was in the middle of Trump country.

(6,881 posts)The huge American flags on the sides were probably erected at the last moment when they saw that ticket requests weren't so "rockin".

Mc Mike
(9,115 posts)We whomped him here in the election, then he snuck into the airport, 5 municipalities away from Pittsburgh, though in blue high population county, and sneaked dipshits in from 3 states and 8 red counties, to an airport hanger for a rally. And claimed he had 5000 pittsburgh residents who were there to support him, claimed we represented a dRump stronghold full of people who were sticking with him. All his 'white rustbelt true believer fans'.
Never showed any pics of the 'full' airport hanger, though.

(50,562 posts)Trump lost Davidson County, but there are a lot of people within two hours of Nashville that'd be happy to go to Municipal Auditorium and cheer for their hero. I'm slightly surprised they didn't call General Poppas at the 101st Airborne, which is only about an hour away up I-24, and ask him to send down a battalion of infantry. (General Poppas, the commanding general of the Screaming Eagles, would be keelhauled for allowing his troops to be used as props in a political exercise...but that never stopped Trump before.)
