Donald Trump's ability to draw a crowd has flabbergasted even one of left-leaning MSNBC's talk-show hosts, Joe Scarborough, who took to national airwaves to say the billionaire is beating all records - that his ability to pack a room with eager listeners exceeds anything even much-loved Ronald Reagan could do.
"I was at George W. Bush's campaign rally in 2004 at the final stages of that unbelievable race in early November," the "Morning Joe" host said, Breitbart reported. "I saw Reagan come to Pensacola twice in 1980. I saw the crowds. I never saw anything like that in my hometown before."
Scarborough was referencing Trump's recent appearance in Pensacola, Florida, and the thousands who assembled to hear him speak and show him support. Scarborough once represented a portion of Florida that included Pensacola when he served in Congress as a legislator.
"It's absolutely staggering. Here we are, in early January. I'll be honest with you. I guess seeing it in your own hometown, I don't get it as far as the size of these crowds go," he said. "It's like nothing I saw with Reagan. It's like nothing I saw with Bush. It's nothing I saw with any political candidate, what I saw come out of Pensacola."
Scarborough said Trump's rivals weren't likely to draw that size of crowd - that Sen. Marco Rubio "would get 150 people at an event" and Sen. Ted Cruz, "probably get double, probably get 300 to 400 people at an event," he said, Breitbart reported.

For a guy that is supposedly a great Christian, which also means he is honest, follows the rules, and abides by the laws that apply to him, Ted plays fast and loose whenever he likes.
I’m sure he’ll have plenty of excuses too.
He always does.

It’s past time to restore civility Posts facts and stop the personal attacks
Reagan was a landslide Trump, a tsunami. Like the game paper, scissors, rock. Which is more powerful than the next.
Go Trump
Go Cruz
America wants to two of yous
the make America great for Great Americans.
We knew Ronald Reagan and voted for Ronald Reagan. Donald Trump is no Ronald Reagan.
Saskatchewan? ROFL
I love IT!!
That was the easiest to make, and folks have really warmed to it.
Funny how that works.
Trump is a clear winner and the others just are...
stumbling behind.
Cruz just got TRUMPED by the Donald on a live debate
and it’s his own fault....
but he cries it’s not. ugh!
40 posts today and almost all against THE DONALD. Don’t like him much do you. Forgiveness can be cleansing - give it a try.
I listened to Rubio’s attack on Cruz in the debate again and found that I could not disagree with anything he said.
I don’t like or trust Rubio but the things he said about Cruz are correct.
I forgive you!
“They feel they donât have a say anymore. Pols are just sellouts to globalist banksters.”
I think that pretty much covers it. Trump does not owe anyone anything.
I didn’t watch it so I can’t comment on it.
I’m not a Rubio guy (know you don’t support him either), but it’s possible for a guy like that to make some sane comments that make sense on the issue.
I do wish they would narrow the field by three more people.
Those 2 percenters aren’t doing anyone any favors.
Who is the resident whiz nowadays at keeping up with the primary delegates? Do you remember how that freeper named Dales used to have those fantastic threads during primary season? Is there anyone who does something like that now? Just wondering.
Oh good. Now are using MSNBC is an authoritative source
You create different images and use a program to make a gif that plays them in sequence, then repeat.
I enjoy coming up with them.
