President Trump on Saturday floated the idea of his supporters gathering for a rally that would be "the biggest of them all."
Taking to Twitter, the president tweeted: "Maybe the millions of people who voted to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN should have their own rally. It would be the biggest of them all!"
Throughout his campaign, Trump touted the size of the crowds he could draw at his rallies, which often dwarfed the size of his competitor's events.
Trump later blamed the media for underreporting the size of his inauguration crowd on Jan. 20, which one week later was compared to the size of the Women's March on Washington. Organizers estimate about 500,000 people attended the march in D.C., while over a million participated in similar marches across the world.
"Watched protests yesterday but was under the impression that we just had an election! Why didn't these people vote? Celebs hurt cause badly," Trump tweeted at the time.
Trump's comment Saturday also follows weeks of nationwide demonstrations, many of which protested the president's executive order that temporarily banned refugees and blocked immigrants from several Muslim-majority countries with high-terror risk.

Time for rallying is over. Your president now. Start backing up your promises.
Just let us know when and where, and 70 million people will show up...how about Washington D.C. when Congress is in session and President Trump is in the Oval Office!!!
get those congress critters moving a little...:)
Can you see their faces with that many people all over Washington D.C...oh boy, they wouldn’t know what the hell to do!!!
It’s too hot in the summer.
What are you griping about??? How much did Barky have done by this time in his office???
If you can do it better, then get your lazy butt down there and do it!!!
We don’t need a rally that starts to look like Nuremberg. Just sayin
Agreed.
I was looking for pictures, dagnabit!
We had 2 million people in DC on 9/12/2009 and the Ministry of Propaganda buried it like it never happened.
I’m waiting to see Trump’s cheerleading outfit, pom poms and all. He is one of the greatest “positive” leader we’ve had in a long, long time, FAR unlike the nappy haired one just dumped.
“Your president now. Start backing up your promises.”
Really???? You can’t be anything but a Hillary or Sanders hack...or maybe a Never Trumper; or maybe you’re one of the new breed of agitators out there...which is it???
He doesn't have his full cabinet yet and the Congress is responsible for all law changes. Congress has to send him something to sign into law.
He has been making major change through Executive Orders.
WTF is wrong with you? Aim you asinine anger at Republicans in Congress and not Trump.
WTF??
Everywhere Trump goes for official business they should have a rally, for We the People.
Implementing his vision requires support of Congress and there is no better way to get Congress in line than to show them this is what their constituency wants.
Yes, Trump won and is now President. It now becomes a battle for hearts and minds, and rallies are a tool to win them.
Agreed. Most people are tired of marching for the sake of marching. We have already made our statements, we have voted Trump into office. Many many not want to deal with the Anarchists and BLM’ers yet again. A lot of Trump supporters were pursued, beaten down and battered by the Hill-Bots, by Bernie’s Boys. More than any other American presidential campaign in my memory. Most have never gotten any publicity about it.
Many cars of GOP attendees were damaged or destroyed in the parking lots by petty, vengeful dems.
Does insurance cover such damage no matter how often it occurs?
Some may have lost their jobs because they needed time to heal. No one’s talking about that.
Donald is willing to risk his life to do this again, something that impresses me. However, my guess is that not all of his supporters would be willing to return to the full raging inferno of the huge rallies just to satisfy his ego.
The attendees do not have Secret Service protections.
Roger that. Time to start draining this cesspool we call America and removing the cancer that has infected it.
The only rallying I will do is if he mobilizes a Citizen Brigade to start tracking down illegals and rounding them up.
Then you can be I will be there on my own dime and packing my own heat
There needs to be rallies in front of every major media outlet in every city..handing out real news.
THEY are the first line of defense and attack against Trump and us!
