Hillary is too busy acting on “Madame Secretary”. Lord knows what the Obamas are up to.

NFL coaches have long relied on the ‘all 22’ view from the sideline or end zone that allows them to see every player on the field from a static viewpoint and to gauge the result of their positioning, movement, routes, pursuit, tackling, etc.

C-SPAN and for-profit media outlets should be required to provide a back-of-the-venue camera view that reveals just how full - or empty - the place is.

Media bias is as common as dirt but one reporter assigned to Hillary 2016 photographed a near-empty (except for the press gaggle of course) hall and then deleted the photo...and then reposted it in cropped form...and then defended the cropping!

The Clintons have long relied on cropping to disguise the lopsided ratio of press to supporters and they always do that stupid annoying pointing routine as if they see someone they know despite having bright klieg lights shining in their eyes and knowing nobody in Dubuque, IA.

Among Hillary’s many nicknames should be ‘Crop’ because she so relies on keeping 90% of the picture - and facts - hidden. Time limits on her appearances. Strict demands on chair height, having a pillow to sit on (despite having two huge natural pillows ie her backside) and strict controls on who gets a photo etc.

The media hate Trump but he will answer questions long after he can and should leave. Hillary hasn’t had an unexpected, uncomfortable and/or unscripted question in a decade despite running twice for president.

The point of all this is the Dems’ ‘rock star’ pseudo-adulation is as fake as Hillary’s hair color. Obama is no better and in many ways worse. Time and again he would fly in and local House and Senate candidates would fly out on, er, important official business. With or without the candidate in town Obama was box office poison as he hogged the spotlight (as he did throughout his terms in DC and annoyed Schumer/Pelosi) and delivered votes and results to the GOP.

Now, of course, Michelle Obama is getting in the act and we are told time and again how popular she is (wishful thinking) and how many tickets have been sold for her book tour etc.

You can rely on the media dutifully cropping photos of Michelle events to show a few dozen rabid sycophants in the front rows but no shots of the venue as a whole especially if it’s mostly empty.

And, of course, the press dutifully avoid taking any photos of 4-mile backups of cars attempting to reach a Trump event and tens of thousands of people queuing to enter and often being forced to stand outside the venue and watch on giant screens.

It is bizarre, cynical Wizard of Oz stuff - but the swampers are convinced they can convince you.

“Oh, well, I guess Obama & Clinton have no real drawing power to get “the Big Crowds” at all. Time is running out for you Democrats but, I fully understand...you have no one called Leader in your broken, failed & twisted, political Party.”

They are doing it in alleys and as grassroots operations. More than likely whatever they are doing is illegal.

Obama can still draw a crowd. But Clinton could hold her rallies in a Starbucks.

My mother-in-law went to an Obama rally in 2007. Should have seen the look on her and her sister’s face when I pulled out my Trump MAGA hat on a recent visit. I didn’t pull it out until she had gone into unbearable control freak mode. She just looked at it and looked back down real quick. Her sister looked scared like she thought things were about to explode.

She was riding my wife’s ass about every little thing. My wife’s not even talking to her now. Mo-in-law KNOWS how everyone should run their affairs. Typical leftist control freak.

Lindsay’s recent statement fits. “Ya’ll want power, by God I hope you never get it.”

They can’t fill any arena unless they get Springsteen to show up with his guitar.

The Obamas and the Clintons only do paid appearances now. They get big bucks from a couple hundred dumbasses per. It’s tip money that Hillary uses so she doesn’t have to touch the nut she stole from Haiti.
