I know that photo was taken at 9:30 am because I was watching live on C-span and noted that the mall was filling up at that time....by the time President Trump spoke....there were people ALL the way back to the end of the mall....it made me so happy that all of those anarchist did not scare away the people.....SO THE MEDIA LIES!!!! And in other news....grass is green and the sky is blue...LOL

Everyone is concerned with how crowded the grounds were and what they missed was that when DJT took to the microphone (literally by his third word) a strong brightness of light came through the clouds for 10-15 secs before the light mist of rain. I was standing on the parade route right in front of the Willard hotel and news media platforms. That should have been reported but all we heard were crickets.

That is not true. I was there in person at the Mall and was at most halfway down the Mall when Trump was sworn in and it was sparsely populated at that point and it was the last Jumbotron on the Mall, too.

The whole argument about size is so stupid and it diminishes Trump. Who cares? It would have been a 5 minute story, but now everyone knows it was just an average size crowd, but so what. It really is not that big a deal.

Same here, I called in my wife to show her the crowd...filling the mall. The nine hour video is still up at cspan.org, I'm sure you can still see those crowd shots there.

SO THE MEDIA LIES!

And they are insisting on continuing the narrative while Team Trump holds back. I anticipate they are waiting for just the right minute to tweet out the proper photos and yank the rug out from under the RATagandists.
