Lynnette Hardaway and Rochelle Richardson better known as Diamond and Silk wowed a capacity crowd for Donald Trump in Boloxi, Mississippi Saturday night.
Promoting themes of unity and togetherness, Hardaway riled up the crowd that WKRG reported was 14,000.
In this room is unity, Hardaway said. In this room we are united. This is the United States, not the divided states, she said.
It s time for us all to take America back because this is our country. It s imperative you get out and vote. If you don’t want to get left, you’ve got to get right Hardaway said to cheers.
We want somebody to build a wall, don't we We want somebody to bring back our jobs so we can thrive again don't we We want somebody thats going to keep us safe, dont we
Her biggest applause line? “There is only one race: the human race, as all of our lives matter in this room.â€
She added, We finally have a candidate that realizes that and that’s why its imperative you vote for Donald J. Trump
The duo also joined Trump on stage at his Raleigh, North Carolina rally in early December.
How great are they! Trump exclaimed while the duo known as Diamond and Silk walked onto the stage.
I turn on my television one night,†a hoarse Trump said, and I see these two on television. I say ‘they are the greatest. They became an internet sensation.
The Republican front runner then invited Hardaway to do a little routine, which she eagerly accepted.
First of all, I’m glad that the media can see us, she said. “I want everybody to know that we stand behind Donald J. Trump

Here they are last night in Biloxi at the Trump rally, before Trump spoke.
Later on, Trump had them join him on stage.
Weren’t there 10,000 people outside as well?
Trump has a bossy side, no doubt about it. But he also has a caring and a visionary side.
I see no reason a priori that this can’t be the recipe for a most excellent cake. The devils and angels are all in the details.
Trump isn’t a pre-made, off the shelf solution. People wanting this ought to look elsewhere. Trump is the possibility guy; my biggest impression of him when I saw him on TV the other night were his gestures at his own chest, his own heart, talking about all the things that would be possible for America with the most obvious sense of hope.
Taking advantage of this would sound like a very obvious thing. Trump needs to be fed the best ideas that the country can come up with. He’s embraced some not-so-best ideas that may have some appearance of merit but miss the mark; but I believe that may be for lack of having been presented seriously with better. When someone like Jeff Sessions collaborates with him, we see things like a wonderful 2nd Amendment focused manifesto. You’d never know he wasn’t an ardent constitutionalist. But actually he isn’t. He’s an ardent good-idea man. He just needs to hear the good ideas. If the constitution wins by its own merit and Donald hears enough about this, Donald will be on board.
Someday some folks are going to wake up and realize that the Trump supporters see a lot of Ronald Reagan in him, and love him just as they did our favorite president.
These two women who bill themselves as Diamond and Silk have been the unexpected gift of the 2015 buildup to Trump’s biggest year yet.
God bless them.
Let me give you the true stats on the crowd
Main stadium holds 15,000 it was filled, so the overflow
at least 5,000 watched from the Convention center next door via Closed Circuit TV feed.
Total 20,000 live saw the event and many thousands like myself watched on of several Youtube live feeds.
So maybe all told 30,000 or more people watched. 3 people watched with me via youtube.
If Trump gets these people to vote he wins across the board.
If you compare all of the crowds, you can see that Trump is going to win this. I hope he listens to a lot of Tea Partiers for advice once he’s elected.
Your numbers were off.
15,000 right
05,000 next door right
10,000 viewed on you tube???? Say what?
Check this out: over 72,000 hits
As of now, close to 100,000 people have seen last night’s event.

Thanks for the comments. I liked them and agree with your analysis. Your logic was sound.
Bossy is a term used to marginalize women Same traits are considered leadership in men. ;-)
“If Trump gets these people to vote he wins across the board.”
Haven’t you heard? All of these people who spend the time and effort to schedule their lives around going to this rally, braving the awful traffic, and hunting for a parking place are not going to bother registering to vote OR go to the voting polls. Apparently they just went to buy the hat and t-shirt because they don’t know how to use the Internet to buy ‘em online.
I agree with you, add to that they had to get tickets in advance.
Sounds like people organized enough themselves to make good caucus goers. Maybe they are first time voters, but I bet they are so sick of lack of full time hour jobs, lowered disposable income, riots in our major cities, illegals and all the crime they bring in that they are ready to, willing to and gonna show up and vote for Mr. Trump.
I used I agree conservative numbers because nobody can refute at least that many who watched the event. After all I am a conservative so I use conservative numbers.
With their brother Eric from a different mother. Lol when I saw that!
Thanks Hojczyk.
Yes, across the street in another building as I recall being reported.
I hope Trump saw fit to put them on a decent payroll...
