Trump: Is there anything better than a Trump rally? These liberal singers, they actually vote for me. You know, like Bruce Springsteen. We have a much bigger crowd than Bruce Springsteen. Right? pic.twitter.com/avB1njR58v

A spokesperson for the city of Wildwood backed Trump’s claim.

Lisa Fagan told The Associated Press she estimated the crowd had to be between 80,000 and 100,000 people, based on her observations of smaller events which took place in the same space.

But footage from the rally made those stats fairly hard to believe.

While Trump fans packed the rafters behind him, video showed an embarrassingly sparse crowd in front of the former president ― an audience that grew even thinner as his 90-plus-minute speech droned on.

Oh my Huff post in denial, and that's not a river in Egypt.

Huff Post always lies. All they have to do is a little research and see the videos and photos! Fox News said this afternoon that the rally was closer to 150,000.

I was once a Springsten fan..... Once.

Springsteen is a leftist fool and cannot sing.

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

“Trump really said his Wildwood rally had a bigger crowd than Bruce Springsteen 🤣….someone tell this moron that The Boss sold out MetLife for 3 nights at 82,500 a night”

Another leftist displaying his incredibly mind numbing computational skills where 82,500 is greater than 100,000

I watched cbs news this evening an they showed a very small portion of the crowd and never mentioned estimated crowd size numbers. That is fine, when it all comes crashing down in November they will be fun to laugh at!!

To try to make an issue over this tongue-in-cheek moment of DJT’s speech is illustrative of just how desperate these far-left loons are getting.

[Terry L Smith]

Springsteen, just another musician-nevertrumper.

[Zuriel]

I never was. And it’s surprisingly easy not to be fans of any entertainer; because they are people too, and only known widely because of promoters (that make no money without promoting the product they represent).

I think it was around 75 that I first heard of Springsteen. Even then, while an avid listener of popular music, I had the attitude I acquired from my dad: celebrities are not gods.

There was nothing sparse about the crowd in the livestream video I saw.

[stanne]

The North Jersy-ites have got to be freaking out hearing about the size of this crowd.

I thought of that yesterday.

[broken_clock]

The leftists have been pulling this bs since President Trumps’ inauguration where the “sparse crowd” photo was an hour or so after the inauguration event, as seen on a wrist watch in that “sparse crowd” photo.

Why would the supposedly sparce crowd in front of the podium be embarrassing when the article itself admits that the rafters in back were packed? So the people in front hated the speech but those in the back loved it? The author of this tripe probably graduated with a useless degree in Queer Studies or Environmental Justice. (Yes, Universities actually offer degrees for them.)

Kellby, meet Helocopter List.

Can a statement be bizarre when it’s true?

[Tijeras_Slim]

Springsteen is a commie. I was going out with a girl when “The River” came out. She said, “He understands us.” I said “He’s mocking you.”

So much for that relationship.

[chajin]

I guess he was blinded by the light.

[backpacker_c]

They are trying to say the bleachers behind Trump were filled, and the audience in front of Trump was empty.

Of course, this is the area the rally was held in

And this was an image during the rally.

The flag image is compressed. For perspective, match up the white tent mid image and compare to the first image. From that, it can be seen that probably 80-90 percent of the larger enclosed area was filled with people

[bankwalker]

“born in the USA” was about his hatred for our nation ...

[rktman]

I questioned earlier if bruth had commented. Guess his “fans” did.
