The size of the crowd at Donald Trump's latest rally has come under scrutiny with people giving varied accounts about the number of people who attended it. Trump, the presumptive nominee for the Republican Party's presidential nomination, held a large rally in a Democratic borough of New York City on Thursday to drum up support ahead of November's presidential election. He told supporters at Crotona Park, South Bronx, of his potential plans for the city if he is elected to the White House. The rally had a permit for 3,500 people, according to the New York Times which cited the

Much easier to count the crowd size at one of Quid Pro Joe's rallies. If Gov Chris Chispie is there does it count as 3 people?

Standard boilerplate propaganda. The use of "presumptive" is the tipoff. Newsweek source, not credible.

Easy to count a Biden crowd. You can use all your fingers and still have enough left to pick your nose.

Uh-oh. Charge him with misrepresenting the crowd size. Trump grossly lied about a permit for 3500 people.

It's funny they'll admit he had a large crowd, but "maybe not as big as he said". Whoopee-freaking-doo. Even if the crowd was 1/10th of the number, it's still more than Joe could draw. Bumch of clowns.

What ever the actual pro-Trump crowd size the undisputed number was the anti-Trump crowd size. Reportedly, "about a hundred." (I'll bet even less)
You would think that NYC, where Hochul claims that everybody "hates Trump," could do better than that.

Of course Newsweek doesn’t mention that FJB can’t fill a bingo hall.

So arrest him for understating the crowd. That way everyone will know how many he REALLY drew.

Liberals are the silliest, most transparent people on the planet. Their panties are always in a twist.

Why not scrutinize Trump's crowd size claims? Biden's been pulling more for every event, and he got over fifty three gazillion votes last election....

Think about this for a second. Are they really saying that NO ONE...nobody in the media, no one in either campaign, nobody in the government, no one in the private sector, not foreign intelligence services, ...NOBODY thought to take photos of crowd size---even just for data-gathering or verification that exist purposes? Who can believe that? Somewhere there are photos and somewhere we have a person who can count or estimate crowd size. What a crock of bee ess to pretend nobody knows.

Remember Democrats only count their property as 3/5th of a whole person so I can see how they might get a different total.

The size of large outdoor crowds are always
exaggerated. The libs only want to “scrutinize” the estimates here is they are afraid the Trump rally crowds are really large.

Ask your friends at the FBI. They seem very interested in who attends these events, so no doubt have an accurate count (less paid informants) and the ID of anyone who looked active.
