Trump's rally: 6,500... Beto's rally; 15,000

[scheming daemons]

One mile apart from each other.

A person who holds no elected office drew more than twice as many people as the President of the United States.

Trump's ego won't be able to handle it.

[BigmanPigman]

1. His "ego" won't hear it since Fux Ruse will tell him it was the biggest EVER anywhere

since the dawn of man.

[Hortensis]

43. Don has a "very long" line, Beto a "tiny, little line."

If his brain were to produce a moment of normality and he saw himself as others do, his head might just burst into flames.

The Week: "We have a line that is very long already," Trump said at the White House earlier Tuesday. "And I understand our competition's got a line, too, but it's a tiny, little line."

The "competition" would be an anti-wall march organized by more than 40 local civic and human rights groups, headlined by El Paso native and potential 2020 candidate Beto O'Rourke.

About 30 minutes into his rally, Trump said he had been challenged by "a young man who's got very little going for himself except he's got a great first name. ... So we have, let's say, 35,000 people tonight, he has 200 people, 300 people — not too good," Trump claimed. "That may be the end of his presidential bid."

2. Wait for the "actual numbers" reported tomorrow morning via Twitter!

[DeminPennswoods]

42. Jr already tweeted

said Daddy had a crowd of 35,000 - in a venue that holds 6,500!

[bdamomma]

51. rotten apples

do not fall far the tree. Jerk.

[at140]

3. Please post some pictures from Beto rally

This is incredible jab to Trump's ego.

[at140]

6. Video of Beto's Rally

[NoMoreRepugs]

4. Capacity of the venues known?

[stopbush]

37. 6500

[ooky]

5. Almost the same percentage that Hillary beat him by in El Paso

[world wide wally]

8. So, he will just lie about it

That's what he does.

[BlueStater]

9. How embarrassing that the "president" is less popular than a failed Senate candidate.

As if he couldn't be any more of a fucking loser.

[fierywoman]

11. So who has the "little tiny line ..." ?

[sheshe2]

10. Don at dawn...

tweeting...

[catbyte]

13. This is all I can think of when he tweets in the morning...

[sheshe2]

16. That....

Much. Much. Larger!

[Doreen]

35. Yeah, that one is in to good of shape and not yellow.

[njhoneybadger]

12. The Oval Office is going to look like somebody threw an M80 in a pumpkin

[sheshe2]

17. ;)

[caballojm]

14. Can't wait for the inevitable Trumpy Twitter meltdown!

Predictable dimwit that he is.

[OliverQ]

15. Just a reminder that it's been shown numerous times

that lots of people at Trump's rallies are paid to be there. There are always craigslist ads in the location where he's going to be and if the people behind the podium don't show enthusiasm, they're removed. There is a woman behind him tonight wearing a Packers T-shirt.

Why is a Packers fan attending a small rally in El Paso, Texas?

[Still In Wisconsin]

18. On behalf of Packer Nation, if that person is/was really one of ours,

I apologize.

[Still In Wisconsin]

19. Trump claimed there were "maybe 200" people at Beto's rally.

He's going to shit himself for real when he reads the actual comparison of numbers.

[FormerOstrich]

20. Wow.....you mean these numbers may be inflated?

The campaign found a receptive population in El Paso, where 62,000 people signed up to get tickets. The coliseum fits 7,500, and thousands of people hung around outside.

Trump and wall

[Honeycombe8]

24. What campaign had 62,000 people signed up? nt

[Chicago1980]

21. Is this an official count?

Wondering...

[TexasBushwhacker]

30. I wonder too

Because there didn't look like many people were there to listen to Beto speak. The march may have been bigger though.

[Honeycombe8]

22. You must be mistaken. Trump always draws the largest crowds in the world.

I know that because he says so.

[ooky]

26. Yes, he always has "the best" crowds.

What a clown.

[dalton99a]

23. 6 AM: "It was a tremendous rally. I had FULL capacity. And I had 15,000 people waiting outside!"

[Honeycombe8]

25. Who said that? nt

[lunasun]

27. Ha ha perfect!

yes

[lastlib]

28. Buh-buh-buh-but Benghazi! Crooked Hillary! NO COLLUSION!

WITCH HUNT! Dumb-ocrats! The Wall!

Oh, yeah, Pocohontas!




What a douche-nozzle!

[murielm99]

29. I hope there are pictures to compare

the two events.

[yellowdogintexas]

31. I was out of the house so missed the live stream but I caught up with a youtube link

Then I made the mistake of reading the comments OMG the trolls were all over it. If you read those comments, Beto had his rally in a closet at the Stop 6 and only 25 showed up. (along with the nastiest comments) I am sorry I missed the rally but I was at an important Fundraising Committee Meeting for Tarrant County Democratic Women

[lame54]

32. Trump's got this covered...

Add a couple of zeros and he's back on top

[pazzyanne]

33. YES, YES, YES!!!

[totodeinhere]

34. According to HuffPost Beto had about 7.000 at his rally.

[Hortensis]

44. Bloomberg: El Paso PD estimates 10-15K.

The Texas Tribune reported 7000, in contradiction of police estimates of a crowd that might have grown to more than twice that size, which may be where Huff got that figure.

[OnDoutside]

47. That looks a more realistic number from the twitter video someone else here put up. Still great.

[Gothmog]

36. Most of the MAGATs attending trump's event were not from El Paso

[LibDemAlways]

38. The local CBS affiliate in Los Angeles just

reported that Trump had a "large crowd" and Beto's was "much smaller." No numbers were given. About what can be expected from the corporate media. If reality doesn't fit the narrative, they just make shit up.

[totodeinhere]

55. The problem is that estimates for both crowds are just that, estimates

That gives outlets with an agenda leave to spin it as they wish.

[donkeypoofed]

39. Donnie Two Scoops has committed the cardinal sin of becoming BORING!!

I hear people leave his rallies early now and are on their phones alot during them. He's starting to bore his base, and once they do up their 2018 taxes, there will be even less people st his rallies. Watch the curtains behind him.at the rallies - his staff uses them to hide empty seats and sometimes they look pretty close and in tight. Perception is his reality, after all !

[smirkymonkey]

40. He had to hire his attendees and bus them in.

He's such a LOSER!!

[Achilleaze]

41. Americans reject the republican Draft-Dodger-in-Chief

...and his republican lies, and his republican treason.

[malaise]

45. I jusr saw that he said he had 35,000 to Beto's

200 or 300.

That fucker is sick.

[malaise]

46. I jusr saw that he said he had 35,000 to Beto's

52. I've been in the El Paso County Coliseum a number of times,

Doobie Brothers, Jefferson Starship, Uriah Heep, Stealy Dan, Sha Na Na and others.

10,000 people, no way.

[MFGsunny]

53. eggs-actly ..... all legit documentation says capacity 6,500 n/t

[LanternWaste]

54. El Paso Fire Dept seem to be the most objective in measure. T: 6500, O'R: 10-15k

Enrique Aguilar, fire public information officer, told the El Paso Times that Trump received no special treatment and that 6,500 people attended the rally at the El Paso County Coliseum.

Bloomberg News reported that O'Rourke's rally drew between 10,000 and 15,000 people.
