ROTFLMAO. It is raining and it is a bigger crowd than Hillary has indoors by magnitudes.
My wife and I had planned to attend, but she’s still recovering from the flu. Good on the folks who made it to CW to see Gov. Pence!
650 turned out in to see Pence in the rain in a college town!
So, Pence (the #2 spot) got 650 outside in the rain, and Clinton (#1 spot) gets 200 inside at a university. We won’t even mention the near non-existent “crowds” that Kaine attracts. Just a quick mention here that Trump routinely gets thousands on the ground, and tens and even hundreds of thousands of views for each of his rallies on youtube, and even MILLIONS on occasion.
Yet, the media claim that Clinton is winning.
Background — I graduated from William and Mary in Williamsburg, and spent a lot of time on Duke of Gloucester St, or “DOG street” as we called it, including evenings snuck into the beautiful gardens behind the Capitol building itself.
Mr. Pence spoke from within the front courtyard wall, and that courtyard really isn’t that big. There’s a large grassy park out front, but that speech seems to be from the front steps of the Capitol itself.
My point is that 650 people would be a packed crowd within that courtyard. It was a good crowd. Maybe folks were also just outside the front wall of the Capitol, but that wall is a tad tall for shorter people to see over.
Note well the sycophant with the “end racism now” sign who assuredly went the entire evening untouched, but certainly severely mauled by trigger words and other specious offenses. Turn the tables at a Hillary! rally and I doubt a sole skinny white guy with a Trump sign would be similarly tolerated.
