I did some checking, the rally at which Bill spoke was at a farm in the Fargo ND area. Another article said that about 400 attended, but the picture they posted looked more like 100.

Throughout the primary season Hillary and Bill have both struggled to draw any kind of a crowd, or whip up any kind of enthusiasm.

In 2008 McCain couldn’t draw a crowd if he tried. His biggest crowd by himself was 10,000 in Miami the night before election day, but he usually could only draw a crowd of a few hundred to a few thousand. On the other hand, 0bama was drawing massive crowds in the tens of thousands.

I picture this race as looking very similar, Hillary struggling to draw more than a few thousand, while Trump fills stadiums with tens of thousands of wildly cheering supporters everywhere he campaigns. That will have a decidedly negative impact on the Clinton campaign, and give a giant boost to the Trump campaign.

You’ve been around long enough to know that the actual size of the crowd means nothing; it’s the camera angle that counts.
The enemedia can show CRIMINAL HILLERY with crowds of tens of thousands, and TRUMP with only 10 to 20 supporters if they want.
Cameras are great for telling the truth, but only if you want the truth.
I laughed my ass off when TRUMP spoke in Burlingame; the media was desperately looking for that camera angle that showed thousands of idiots marching and protesting against TRUMP.
AND COULDN’T FIND IT.
The best they could get was maybe 200 to 300 morons in their MASSIVE, HUGE, crowd shots from any angle.
That tells me that in reality, there were probably not more than 200 protesters there.
But they sure did hype it.
