Yes, the lefties in the media and elsewhere are NOTORIOUS liars. I agree. Probably a bit of that going on here.

*But* does the factor of crowd size matter? Many of us DJT voters were and WORKING. Folks in Pennsylvania and Michigan and other swing states are dealing with a lot in their lives right now. Maybe we just couldn’t make it. I know I couldn’t, though I would love to have been there.

Another consideration:

Let us remember what the LEFT was saying all during the campaign. Trump had MASSIVE crowds at his events, Hitlery looked like she had to shove a bunch of sardines into a little can and then have the cameras shoot really tight so the audience appeared large.

When we who love liberty pointed out the crowds were larger at DJT events, the LEFT would retort, “Anecdotal. Irrelevant. Means nothing!”

*NOW*, all of a sudden, they want to use “crowd size” at an inaugural as an indicator that is relevant? In 2016, crowds meant NOTHING...but in 2017 crowds mean EVERYTHING.

Finally, let us remember that crowd size really shouldn’t matter for a President. I am betting (though I haven’t checked the history) Abe Lincoln’s inaugurals weren’t well attended. And Harry Truman’s was probably not the most popular event of its kind. But both were consequential men for their generation.

The left is grasping at straws, folks.

Don’t let them diminish our happiness that eight years of Hussein has ended and we are on the mend.

Yes, and they will ride the “popular vote” nonsense for the next 3 years, 362 days, 14 hours, nine minutes, and 47 seconds until TRUMP ‘20!
