The Fort Myers rally was viewed LIVE on Youtube by over 40,000 viewers. His rallies are always viewed LIVE with over 15,000. I checked when Hillary was speaking in PA and it was under 500 live viewers.

There is a massive movement that the talking heads have no idea what is going on. Why would someone want to view live mid afternoon unless they cared about what Trump said? This is going to be major HUGHHH Election!!!!

In 2012, Obama couldn't fill a college basketball arena. I recall threads showing pix with the upper sections dark. When those images were 'lightened' by modern technology, they showed whole sections of empty seats. I recall another venue (gymnasium) where they brought in curtains to close off half of the floor space, due to a lack of attendees.

Yet, he managed to pull out win over Romney.

I just hope the 2016 crowd sizes are more meaningful. Trump has been drawing such large crowds since he first announce in June 2015.

But, the staunch D's will pull the D level regardless of who their nominee is.

True. The difference here is Trumps been doing it for over a year. He's consistently has had large attendances going back to the primaries.

It should be pointed out that Clinton’s “rally” was on a university campus where there are tens of thousands of students, and she was only able to get 200 to show up.

Which is really interesting. I was at Syracuse University in 2011 when then-SECSTATE Hillary! dropped by for a speech. I saw the line of students waiting to get into the building from my classroom that morning. I don't know how many 100s or 1000s it was, but it was a big, long line. Now she's only getting this many to show on a college campus? That's not good for her.

I looked at the total views of number of videos of Clinton vs Trump at yesterday’s rallies and Trump was at 300,000 and Clinton 10,000.

I wouldn’t count on crowd size.

Diebold is much more important.

That is the crucial issue, and why we lost to Obama twice.

And Obama had huge rallies as well!

So, if both candidates are getting huge crowds, it is a wash.

But if only one is, it shows a huge problem with the Democrat base.

Agreed, that is the real issue.

Thanks for those observations.

His rallies, the ability to pull tens of thousands of people away from their every day lives, seems impressive.

Even if your a die hard Democrat, you can’t be totally on fire for Hillary Clinton. You may be dedicated to vote for her, but it isn’t going to be a love fest even then.

That "Love trumps hate" sign signifies the exact opposite of what they're going for. I associate love with Trump and hate with the left, so to me it means "Trump-love is better than Leftist-hate".

I looked up the definition of the word trump at m-w.com. One meaning is "a dependable and exemplary person". :)

Yet its just more free advertising for her opponent right there in front of everyone.

She needs new evil geniuses running her PR.

“... Hillary’s handlers are keeping rally attendance numbers low on purpose ...”

They do seem to not only choose small venues but carefully control who actually gets in - and this has been going on for many years. She dare not show up in a truly public forum or she will be booed - and if the doors are opened to just anyone, those who hate her are very motivated to get in and yell their opposition - which she just cannot take.
