NYC law enforcement estimated the crowd size at 8-10k, so the pic shown in the OP is definitely from hours before the actual rally began. That's not as big as the 25k number Trump claimed, but by now, we should all be aware that everything is bigger in Trumpworld. :rofl:

Still, drawing a crowd of this size in such a diverse and deep-blue place is impressive. Even the CNN reporter on the ground confirmed that the crowd was bigger than Democrats could be comfortable with, and that a large share of the attendants were people from the Bronx:


Seems like they got different instructions from their higher ups the day after the rally when all of the MSM was suddenly trying to spin it as "Trump's Bronx rally was small and pathetic".

Literally every conservative event. Media takes pictures an hour before the event starts and then stops reporting.

Notice how the march for life will NEVER be covered by corporate media. Trump speeches are the same thing.


Sounds like something Conservatives could take a picture of themselves to easily disprove it.
Doesn’t fit your narrative though

They only had a permit for 3,500 people, so even 10k seems exaggerating unless someone failed pretty bad at their job

You can click this link, and literally... I MEAN LITERALLY... Watch the video ZOOM into Trump from where the screenshot was taken from. I do not know how you can get anymore literal.

But yes, reject what your own eyes tell you :rofl:

Did some research on this, and the picture is from during the actual event. The time showing 11:09 is due to it being from ABC7’s Eyewitness News @ 11PMs recap of the rally: https://x.com/FPWellman/status/1794001941569089868

Oddly enough the official recording of this is scrubbed from ABC7s site as of now

Why is it that Trump refuses to tell the truth about crowd size in this day in age? We can literally fact check it, and yet... We are supposed to refuse what our eyes see? Biden has small crowd sizes, we can see that. We are not attending his rallies because he does not need to convince us. We will vote for him. We don't need or see him as a king, but as a civil servant. Yet, Trump tries to lie about his crowd size as if that affects voting. If he can easily lie about this, imagine what he is truly hiding.

Note: The opinion piece is titled by them, not me.

He claimed he had 25k at his rally. It looks like 250.

Can I ask you a serious question?

Do you think the average American who is struggling to pay their bills gives a fuck about how many people showed up to a rally for any potential presidential nominee? Trump? Biden? RFK?

Don't you find it ironic how for years people have discussed Biden's low numbers when it comes to "public speaking" and who shows up?

Then when it's assumed a "smaller then average Trump crowd" is a reality the media goes haywire?

Can you explain where you were going with this post? How does crowd size have anything to do with "what the people NEED from the next POTUS"?

The only reason I bring up crowd size is because of the fact that republicans continue to lie about it. I wouldn't even touch it if the claim was correct, but yet again there is lying. Why lie? That is where I am going.

As for your what the people "need", I would say it doesn't need a lying president. Trump told 30k+ lies while in office, did the worst job during the pandemic, and set us back 7.5 trillion in debt. We can attribute A LOT of the pricing today due to his term. You can't just break a bottle of spaghetti sauce on the floor and expect the next president to ignore the mess. Cleaning up the mess takes time, and can cause some differing numbers.
