US politcial rallies really need to take some inspiration from UK football crowds. I recommend the classics 'we can see you sneaking out', https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O1FBiI5-4bg 'is there a fire drill?' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DTGZ_tTzMPo and 'more [object] than fans' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5OxeHVLMOtw
So, Trump is standing in a 1/2 full room, telling the people there that the room is full, and they're all going "we love him because he tells it like it is" SMH
Someone in another post mentionned that NTD is under the Epoch Media Group... so... good that they showed the empty seats, but fuck them!!! Garbage propaganda/conspiracy theories crap cosplaying as "news".
Trump is telling someone to add them to the enemy list... writing sounds too much like manual labor for Trump ;-) Unless he is signing something, I'm pretty sure that is all knows how to write.
Imagine being in attendance… how is there no laughter? Probably fear? It’s gotta be exhilarating to some degree. I would imagine myself a fish in a very large barrel, more than figuratively.
It’s like a concert without music, a beer tent with no alcohol, a gathering where one person speaks at a time and everyone cheers in collaboration. An etheric family for just a little while, old friends who’ve never met, saying their last goodbyes
It's all about the propaganda, as hard as you push the idea, "There's an overwhelming amount of us!!!!!!" it means they will believe it as much as they can that they were cheated if they lose the election because, "N-no way there's much more of them than us! We can't be the minority! Minorities get hurt by the police!"
Weird that you got downvoted. You're right. I could understand people not wanting to get complacent, but that's not being complacent. It's showing we have enthusiasm. :)
Yeah; the main reason to care about them is to fight despair; a cornerstone strategy of fascists (and Trump) is projecting indomitability and inevitability. "Just give up, let it happen." They're trying VERY hard to get people to decide it's pointless and just stay home - or worse, to bandwagon with the "winner".
Complacency was a concern when the media was blasting "trump can't possibly get elected". It's less of one than despair, when the media is blasting "trump's guaranteed to win."

This is what you get when you build a reputation for not paying your contractors.

I only have one question for the people leaving early. Are they still voting for him? I hope even just a few have seen the light. Vote!!!

The hero we need.

That cameraman was having none of his bullshit. Watch Republicans doxx and harass him now.
StarmineRendezvous
I hope he dies a little on the inside every rally that happens. Evil fucker.

I hope the camera op kept their job

Why do people go to political rallies? Seems dumb
Hammertulski
I love, LOVE the feeling of exasperation coming from the motions of taking the camera mount off locked position. That op was just fuckin done.
Hammertulski
The extra icing is the one or two yells from people who sound like they were let onto the pitch of an empty stadium after-hours.

dude probably knew there was a chance he wasn't getting paid anyways
ihavesexwithllamas6
isn’t it a bit off to use the slogan “Trump Will Fix It” when a famous british pedophile had a very similarly titled tv show?

I hope that camera man got out of their safely.

You know Turmp's adding them to the enemies list.

Full of shit is the only full thing at that rally.

Who cares about rally attendance. It's the ballot box that matters.
SignedEpsteinsMother
Clearly Sweet Potato Hitler cares about rally sizes. He's so fixated on it.

somerandomusernamething
This. Rally size is his only real strategy at this point. "My rallies were so much bigger, therefore more people like me. The election was stolen".
1eudaemonia
yep. plenty republicans will just vote party line even if they dont care for trump.
JayEnfield
It all comes down to turnout this time.
icantbelieveistillhavetoprotestthiscrap
Exactly. That's why footage like this is encouraging. It could indicate low enthusiasm for Trump and subsequently lower turnout.
karcain
enthusiasm to see a candidate can be a (very approximate) indicator of enthusiasm to vote for them
