Gee, according to the Einsteins over at National Review (yeah, I know), the crowd was only 18,000 and a quarter of them left early.
Typical TDS.
Trump/Cruz 2016
They rave about Bernie getting 8000 in Marxist heaven Madison WI, but when Trump gets 35,000 RSVPs and quickly upgrades from the 11,400 seat Civic Center to the nearby 33,471 seat Ladd-Peebles stadium (on a few days notice), they present it as "half-full" and "only 18,000" (when 23,000 or higher is much more likely to be accurate). Had he not switched to the larger venue, 6,000-12,000 people would have been shut out (after canceling their weekend plans to come see him speak).
Trump is drawing 2-3 times as much as the best crowds for any other candidate, and changing venues at the last moment (how many 18,000-23,000 seat venues are there in Mobile, AL?) and they present it as an insult. Dirtbags.
(Go Cruz)
