PoliticusUSA: Nobody Shows Up For Trump Rally In Florida As Trump’s Big Boasts Draw Smaller Crowds

According to the fire marshall, an Orlando, FL venue that holds 10,000 was a quarter to a third full, just moments before Donald Trump's rally was set to begin.

See all that green space? That is what a dying presidential campaign that is losing looks like. It is a political fact of life that dying presidential campaigns see their crowds drop off in the final days of the campaign. It happened to John McCain in 2008. It happened to Mitt Romney in 2012, and it is happening to Donald Trump in 2016.

Republican Congressional leaders have already begun planning how they are going to handle a Hillary Clinton presidency. The election is far from over, but while Clinton continues to draw full houses wherever she goes, Trump’s crowd size has been dropping off for weeks.

1. But I thought this was all the media's fault!

They're not reporting the YUUUGE crowds he's attracting.

[BlueStreak]

2. Early voting is a huge factor. 4 million already in Florida

Not much reason to go to a Trump rally if you have already voted because Trump doesn't even have a GOTV operation.

[JTFrog]

43. I already voted but would go to a Hillary rally near me. Fired up, ready to go! nt

[Cracklin Charlie]

6. That looks like a couple hundred, at most.

I guess they're tired from all the winning.

8. Rally here in Pensacola due to begin any minute.

Last time he was here he came to the Bay Center (formerly the Civic Center) and drew quite the rowdy crowd here in NW FL. Tonight's hoe-down has been moved to an outdoor setting to an amphitheater behind the baseball stadium used for a local ball team. Smaller venue than Bay Center. It will be interesting to see what they report the turn out to be. They just announced the stop a couple of days ago, so not much time to get the faithful to turn out.

9. Some drumph fan on CNN claimed he wa going to appear in PA

and they had booked a 10000 venue.

Let's see the crowd then.

[ailsagirl]

10. Either lying or delusional!

[Tom Rivers]

12. this is the real reason why he hates katy tur

she has been calling him out for months in interviews on msnbc about how he has consistently lied about the size of his crowds. the man is sad and pathetic. projecting once again, claiming he is drawing the big crowds, when we're seeing right now that hillary, michelle and president obama are the ones holding large, diverse rallies.

[ailsagirl]

13. That's what I love to see!

Large, enthusiastic, diverse rallies (I added "enthusiastic&quot

[Roy Rolling]

14. As Yogi Berra said...

If people don't wanna show up at the ball park nobody's gonna stop them.

[fleabiscuit]

15. Yogi was awesome. nt

[mountain grammy]

17. Thank you.

One more bit of good news. Just the hard core deplorables left now.

Local news now crowing about large crowd for Mike Pence, boy are they excited. Just reported polls in Co show 39 to 39 tie between orange Hitler and Hillary..

[madamesilverspurs]

18. As per his usual,

did he proclaim that there were "thousands who weren't able to get in"?

[mcar]

19. And Hill's rally in central FL yesterday

had at least twice the anticipated crowd.

Enthusiasm!

[Cha]

37. Enthusiasm!

40. Love it!

[NBachers]

20. "Rosebud"

[anneboleyn]

22. I don't ever want to know what Trump's "rosebud" would be. Not a sled that's for sure.

[mopinko]

24. a sex toy.

a masturbation sleeve.

[progressoid]

34. Ewww. Now I need brain bleach.

[Blue Idaho]

21. I really think this is a story the press is suppressing...

I think Trump crowds have been dwindling for a while now but careful staging and even more careful camera angles are used to keep selling the "horse race" meme. It's happened before and the M$M always says they don't talk about it because they don't want to "influence" the election...

Which of course is influencing the election...

[kimbutgar]

23. Wait p, I heard him say he has the biggest crowds ever!

More than Hillary or Obama ever had!

Was this the rally he taunted Kay Tur? If so....coo coo coo...he'll losing it.

[workinclasszero]

25. I hope drumpf's evil campaign is dead

So we can bury it next Tuesday.

[Equinox Moon]

26. What is the flag with the big red "X"?

[pkdu]

27. State of Florida Flag

[Equinox Moon]

48. Wow, that is intense. It has the visual association of confederacy symbolism,

which may be intentional.

[NastyWomen]

33. I thought that was a marker

Telling where to drop the cockroach spray when the crop duster flies over.

[spiderpig]

29. Donald Trump is a pathological liar.

We're not talking "the dog ate my homework" kind of defensive fib.

Trump lies so much he wouldn't know the truth if it hit him in the face (after which Trump would sue Truth).

He is also a terrible, awful, disgusting creature. I can't think of anyone since you-know-who who has spewed so much hatred and led a more self-centered, ultimately useless life.

Trump in the Oval Office? I'm with Mark Cuban.

[KamaAina]

30. I read that as "Trump's Big Breasts" for a split second!

[bigdarryl]

31. To be fair you can't go by crowd sizes

[Cha]

35. Thank you, ailsagirl!

Oh, Comey's shite didn't help?

[Ardoewaan]

36. This warms my heart - nt

[Hekate]

38. The show's almost over, folks

[Pacifist Patriot]

39. I keep saying Florida isn't the battleground people think it is.

I may go down smoking in flames eating crow on Tuesday evening, but I honestly think Florida is going to be a safe win for Secretary Clinton.

[jcgoldie]

41. Somethings happening here Katy!

Can you see it Katy, huh Katy?

[niyad]

42. a third to a quarter full? 2,500 people?? there are barely 250 there.

[madinmaryland]

44. Probably more port-a-potties than people there. nt

[TonyPDX]

46. Please join me in a moment of silence for his embarrassing scampaign.

[47of74]

49. Looks like there are more portable shit houses there then there are people.

Maybe they need all the outhouses because of how full of shit that cheeto dusted moron is.

[jcgoldie]

52. how can you tell the difference?

[Loge23]

51. They're still out there folks

Loud but decidedly small contingent outside of the early voting hall we used in Port St. Lucie yesterday. No HRC supporters seen.
Then this evening, all four corners of a major intersection in St. Lucie West each with a dozen or so deplorables.

[INdemo]

53. Remember how Karl Rove would have Bush supporters bused into a rally?

Is it possible this is now happening with Trump?
