58. Judging the crowd will be problematical.

I'm not sure Trump's funeral attendance will be so bare. As pointed out by Red Skelton, when L. B. Mayer's funeral was well attended, "Give the people what they want and they'll come out for it."

Also, a lot of people will want to follow the hearse to the cemetery and see him put in the ground, just to be sure he's really dead.

And, too, some will be willing to expend a bit of time to try and have the first shot at pissing on his grave.
