If the clock in his comparison pic IS broken........And none of the clocks anywhere match the xstamp data on either comparison pics, and his Twit is obviously not timely so their basis for their comparison is that they just want to complain and stir the shit, and is falling rather flat.

My eyes hurt.

A much earlier smoking gun was the framed photo of the inauguration given to President Trump by Congress at the luncheon immediately following the ceremony. Unfortunately the fake MSM meme took root Friday afternoon and was fodder for the late night talk show hosts that evening. By Saturday, any Trump administration response and any accurate media photos were already too late.

We need to get out of reactive mode and reread Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals. Take your enemy, freeze, polarize... The issue is never the issue... Pres. Trump actually has used some of this. Til the end of time, people will think of Lyin’ Ted, Crooked Hillary, Little Marco, Low-energy Jeb.

Someone clearly needs to show the pictures of the other clocks and the watches!

No need. There is no way to corroborate when he took the picture that has the broken clock in it. With out knowing even the approximate time, any valid comparison is impossible.

Everyone should read post 79. Seems as though the clock is broken.

You can clearly see people walking away from the direction of the stage. It’s obvious the event is over and people are leaving.

I did some digging and found video confirmation that the Smithsonian clock also showed approx 1:15 later in the day as well.

https://www.nytimes.com/video/us/politics/100000004881180/watch-live-inauguration.html

At around 4:37:40, footage of much later in the day, clocktower time remains 1:15.

As noted in post 79 and 137 - the clock isn’t working.

https://www.theatlantic.com/photo/2017/01/all-of-this-space-was-full-a-photographic-fact-check/514253/

(see Editors note at end of article)

The image in post 81 is Obama’s inauguration.

Also, I think the image the Obama inauguration in post 46 is Getty sourced - which I think is not permitted on this site.

Is there any proof they re-ran stuff on the video screens - after the event?

I suspect the video screens have different images because they are a bit out of sync with each other for sound production reasons. When you have a PA system with multiple relay speakers covering the field - you have to delay the audio - cuts down on the echo - but will throw the video out of sync. Not a big deal, since people watching the screens can’t see the stage anyway.

Not sure what you are looking for with the watch references in the CNN image. Its Trump on stage...we know when he spoke. No surprises there.

If you think the CNN image makes the crowd look bigger - its because it does make it look bigger.

Its taken closer to the ground - which foreshortens the empty spots.

With all the criticism of CNN here - kinda hard to cite them as a source. It doesn’t make much sense that they would post an image helping Trumps claim does it?

Also - it seems like we’ve heard from surprisingly few Freepers first hand experiences at the inauguration. When there were rallies - seems like somebody was always there sharing a few pictures etc.

I know the site was down - but was anybody there?

There is what looks a “two-faced” man in the CNN gigapixel photo. He has three eyes, two noses, and two chins. An artifact of how they created the photo, no doubt.

Locate Dan Quayle in the photo (he’s wearing red cap and is featured in one of the thumbnails), then go about three or four rows directly above him in the photo and slightly over to the right to find the guy with the split face.

All of those people have their backs to the camera which means they were leaving.
