Obama Triggers A Meltdown As Trump Mentions Crowd Size 3 Times In 46 Seconds

Obama Triggers A Meltdown As Trump Mentions Crowd Size 3 Times In 46 Seconds


The big crowds coming out for Barack Obama are in Trump’s head, as the mentally teetering president mentioned crowd size three times in less than a minute while talking to reporters.


Trump said, “I’m now leaving for Georgia. I’ll be doing a rally. We have a tremendous number of people as you probably know standing outside trying to get in. It’s for Brian Kemp. We’re then going to Tennessee where we have a tremendous crowd. We’re having a lot of crowds. I don’t know what that means, but I guess we always have a lot of crowds. In Tennessee, it’s Marsha Blackburn. She’s doing well. She’s a great candidate. She’ll be a great senator from Tennessee. That will be the second stop. We’ll have a busy day. Tremendous crowds.”


Video:


Obama has been blowing Trump out of the water on crowd size, and it bothered the White House so much that over the weekend they released a statement claiming that Trump’s crowd size on Friday was exactly the same as Obama’s. Trump’s always obsessed with crowd sizes. Trump will claim that he has big crowds when he doesn’t, even as people are walking out while he is still talking.

After his Sunday morning claim that he has record-high approval rating with African-Americans, Donald Trump is showing signs of being back on his trajectory of rejecting reality when things are not going well.

One of the reasons why Republicans are struggling is that Trump treats Republican candidates like an afterthought. These rallies aren’t for the candidates. The rallies are for Trump’s ego, and it is clear that the return of the popular Obama has punctured Trump’s ego bubble, which is why he felt the need to obsessively mention the size of the crowd at rallies that he hasn’t arrived at yet.

As the hours pass, there are growing signs that Trump is cracking under the pressure of Democrats retaking all or part of Congress.

Trump can't land a punch, the giant crowds are cheering for Obama, and Obama just waits for a weak Trump jab to repeatedly land body blows.

Trump is out of his weight class and out on his feet when in the ring with Obama.

Weenie sizes not even considered.

If Trump has a heart, it is minuscule and as black as coal. Obama is everything that Trump is not.

Obama has a family that truly loves him. He is a intelligent and kind man who is respected by millions of people around the world.

In an airplane hanger at our airport. One of the local CBS news affiliates reported that the hanger would hold 6700 people with overflow staying outside to watch on Jumbotron. They breathlessly covered the screening and lines of people waiting to get in. At one point they announced that there were more than 6,000 inside already. They showed a few pictures of the inside crowd but I was suspicious about the number already inside. It just did not appear to be many thousands of people.

Today our local newspaper naturally covered the rally as it was a big deal. (Well, for some people. The TV interviews done prior to the rally were gag worthy with people gushing about how excited they were to see tRump.). In today’s paper the crowd was estimated at 3,000 +. That is a far cry from 6700 already inside with people still waiting to get in.

Someone is not correct. My hunch is the smaller number. No doubt, here in NW FL there are rabid tRump fans, but like everywhere else in this country, there were folks who voted for trump who now have buyer’s remorse. I just can’t believe that THOSE people would come out for a rally.

Crowd size should be a no brainer. People had to have a ticket issued by the Republican Party. There appeared to be ONE ENTRANCE to that hanger and they were entering single file. One ticket = one attendee. Someone with a clicker standing there could get a second count. No more guessing.

But then tRump would rather give HIS Estimate, wouldn’t he? He is such an expert at that.

of these people are paid? The gop would stoop to that low. tRump is campaigning for himself, his re-election. Waste of time, he will be in prison by then. This presidency gig is the best, easiest gig he has ever had.,. He breaks laws, and makes money. His "kids" get paid for appearances on TV. Wow, what could suit the tRump family better than that?

Trump is a narcissist, and like most narcissists, at heart he's insecure. He knows that Obama had many more people at his inauguration and now at his rallies. Therefore, the insecure toad, has to brag and exaggerate about the crowd sizes at his own rallies.

He would be a pathetic joke of a man if he weren't in the WH. He's now pathetic but also dangerous, as he has the power of the office behind him.

President Barack Obama is living in his head rent-free. For someone who built a (sordid) reputation in real estate, and has charged exorbitant rent for his holdings, the fact that his predecessor occupies so much of his conscious and subconscious mind — without paying for it — would go a long way towards explaining his recent behavior.

Good!
