Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Tuesday, May 14, 2024

Fox News' Jesse Watters has downplayed claims that more than 100,000 people attended Donald Trump's recent rally in New Jersey. Speaking on Monday's episode of The Five, Watters said that a reporter he sent to the 2024 campaign rally in Wildwood said there were tens of thousands fewer people in attendance than what Trump and others are claiming. ... [T]he reporter at the event in New Jersey "said it wasn't 100,000, said it was closer to 30,000."

Trump, the presumptive 2024 Republican nominee, has a history of overstating the size of his crowds at rallies and public speaking engagements. He suggested that his 2017 inauguration had the highest-ever attendance for such an event, despite photos proving otherwise.

Believe your eyes.

Expand both photos in the tweet below. Trump's crowd is maybe half the size of the crowd in floor seating (not including the stands) at Taylor Swift's concert with 73,000 attendees. 8000-10,000 or so:

"If Biden is so popular, why doesn't he have huge rallies, his own flag, his own bible, gold sneakers, his face imposed on handguns, or a hat to identify his supporters?"

Because we aren't in a ------- cult.

Trump exaggerates his crowd size, Biden says inflation was over 9% when he took office when it was 1.4%. CNN even busted him on it.

Like you posted something intelligent?

You posted a single Biden gaffe. Like its significant. It is not. All politicians like to exaggerate. What is significant is what actually happened to our economy after Biden took office. Which you cannot talk about.

And you do know, of course, that Trumpy's "gaffes" outnumber Biden's by about 35,000 to 1 don't you?

As for the economy maybe tell the whole story?

The U.S. economy improved more during President Joe Biden's first year in office than in the first 12 months of any other president in the past 50 years. Job growth, economic growth, retail sales and business creation were all up, while unemployment and unemployment insurance claims were all down significantly.

You have to include both sides of the equation.

Biden doesn't treat the people who support him as cash cows to be fleeced as much as possible for hats, flags, nft, worthless stock, gold sneakers and bibles.

Sh*tlers only successful business has been selling hats, flags, bibles and sneakers to morons.
