Trump brags about Jan. 6 crowd size: 'I think it was the largest I've ever spoken before'

[Soph0571]

Former president Donald Trump on Saturday complained that the "fake news" media never reports on the size of the crowd at his Jan. 6 "Stop the Steal" rally prior to the Capitol insurrection.

"They talk about the people that walked down to the Capitol," Trump said. "They don't talk about the size of that crowd. I believe it was the largest crowd I've ever spoken before, and they were there to protest the election."

Emphasis mine

His lack of accountability never ceases to amaze. Because he has never been held accountable in his pampered ill lived life, he thinks that he can get away with anything. At this point he is seeking PRAISE for the size of the crowd he incited to treasonous insurrection. You could not make this shit up.

At this point, he is literally bragging about this... ''Look at the size of the murderous unhinged mob that came at my command to attack the heart of democracy. Didn't I do well?''



Anyone who still supports this maniac is the opposite of patriotic.

1. Trump's been bragging and exaggerating size all his life. Obviously to compensate for feelings of

inadequacy.

2. Jan 6th rally size (from the LA Times)

“The crowd size at the rally (on Jan 6) was at least 10,000, according to the Associated Press.”

5. I'm starting to think it's the same 10,000 people, over and over.

Like the Deadheads, but driving $60,000 jacked-up pick-em-up trucks instead of hippie vans.

22. Eastman, in court filings, said there were 500,000.

Insurrectionists have said up to a million.


They are all delusional liars.

harping on and on about how he gets no respect.

6. He is rubbing it in our face.

He wants the attempted coup to be called a rally. He is not a stupid person, he is a mentally ill person.

[PJMcK]

14. Trump IS stupid AND mentally ill

He’s also an idiot.

His followers share these traits.

7. Trump is a conniver and manipulator trying to talk his way back from his Jan 6 actions imo

Just ignore him.

[kentuck]

8. What he wants them to hear?

"I drew the biggest crowd ever and they want you to believe that Joe Biden won."

"But, you know better..."

9. Absolute scum...

That a lying, depraved psychopath like Trump still enjoys such a large following speaks to the racism, ignorance and low moral character of millions of Americans.

[Emile]

10. Even larger than his inauguration crowd, seriously!

[malaise]

11. Let him incriminate himself

That is all

[malaise]

12. Let him incriminate himself

That is all

[MissMillie]

13. they DO talk about crowd size

that's how we know that more than 700 people have been charged with joining his criminal endeavor

[a kennedy]

25. Checked the Arizona paper, it said about 20,000 there.......

[highnooner]

16. Actually, his Inauguration Speech was his largest ever...

even though it was still much smaller than Obama's Inauguration Speeches.

17. I guess fact is stranger than fiction.

When I read the title, the first thing I thought this was from the humor section of the New Yorker or from The Onion.

18. carnival barker says what? He is obsessed. Time for exorcism, then the deplorables.

19. I Suspect The Election Protest Crowd

would have been huuuuge if the Republicans had attempted and succeeded in their coup plot.

Republicans apparently discount effeminate Democrats from actually taking any action or they figure the military/police will just enforce what they tell them.

[NCjack]

20. He will have the biggest ever crowd when he arrives in Hell.

[spanone]

21. He 'thinks'. No he doesn't.

[Kid Berwyn]

23. Not as big as Nuremberg.

Gosh. Dimdonnie must be good at something.

[Vinca]

24. "It was the biggest, most violent crowd in history. There has never been a meaner crowd than mine."

[Martin Eden]

26. Most of that crowd was Antifa and BLM

And they don't count as maga minions.
