I’m afraid not. No one, including Romney ever had this level of consistent, massive rallies like Trump, which went on day in, day out.

Hey Mr. Shoop, did ya add in the tens of hundreds of thousands who couldn’t attend his rallies, who watched Trumps rallies on the Internet in real time on a daily and weekly basis?

Romney was a D.C. hack who’s rallies didn’t come even close to Trumps.

In fact Trumps welded bond with tens of millions of his supporters is historic and has not been seen in modern America. You’d have to dial back to the founders to see this type of relationship between a leader and the people.

You make me well up with pride. Fierce, defiant pride.

Pride in our country has become as rare as public pay phones thanks to many years of corrupt loser leadership. The globalist elite wanted to stomp out nationalism, independence and patriotism. The wanted to divide the united with their reckless chain immigration and open violent borders.

Lets hope America gets it right this time.

Sure, add the “tens of hundreds of thousands” to the list, but that still a small fraction of 120 million, which is roughly the number of voters in 2012.

Oh, the 120 million were probably the ones who couldn’t get into Trumps at capacity rallies. They just don’t make arenas big enough to fit half the country.

Think of those numbers and then look at next poll sample. Statistics are amazing. They poll 850 people to represent 200 million. Sure they do demographic analysis to “correctly” weigh the sample but...

“Real life” poll: Trump will be in town tomorrow. What will you do?

1. Do nothing, don’t care (probably Hillary)
2. Protest his visit (Bernie convert to Hillary)
3. I would like to go but don’t like large crowds/lines (50/50 Hillary or Trump)
4. I will go by an hour before and see if I can get a seat (Trump voter)
5. I will get off work and wait all day (definite Trump voter)

So what is the breakdown in your area, key swing counties?

Next Poll question: Hillary will be in town tomorrow. What will you do? Ah, nevermind

Here is the problem, you can get 2% of the population highly energized for a candidate, and that is enough to pack events in 50 states. Think of the Ron Paul crowd. Trump obviously has much more support than that, but you can't look at a packed Rally and infer much broader support.

For example, Bernie Sanders had much higher enthusiasm on the dem side, bigger rallies, more intense support, but the tepid Clinton supporters outnumbered the enthusiastic Sanders supporters. If rallies and enthusiasm predicted the winner, Sanders would have won the primary.
