Donald Trump boasted that he attracted a record-setting crowd to a livestock arena at the Arkansas State Fairgrounds on Wednesday night, but photos taken while he spoke inside the Barton Coliseum tell a different story.

Unless Trump is nominated, that’s what we are going to see for the next 8 years - guaranteed - because there is not a chance in hell Cruz will beat her. I don’t care what anyone says, he doesn’t have the goods or the balls to overcome the treasonist media, Democraps and GOP-E like Trump does. Matter of fact, if Trump loses/drops out, the election is over as far as I’m concerned. Hillary will be the 45th President of the United states and the impetus of its complete destruction. 3rd world nation here we come. I’ll vote for whoever the Repub. nominee is, be it Cruz or even Rubio, but there is no way those guys will beat her. I wish a lot of Freepers would realize that because that’s the reality of what is going on here. I could care less if Trump is a arrogant blowhard, this man fights and is absolutely fearless and that is exactly what is required to prevent this career criminal from taking office.

So, the pictures show before he even arrived there were more people in the place than at a Cruz rally! How pathetic you are!

Hey Cruzers, looks like you are falling into third in NH, LIE yourself out of that.

Actually, Cruz has been polling fifth in NH for the last few months, so get your insults right. Doesn't matter much. NH has only 20 delegates. Trump likely gets 6-7 for his steady 36 percent polling, and the group behind him (Kasich, Bush, Carson, and Cruz have all been around 10-11 pct) get about 2-3 each.

Trump will be up by 3-4 delegates after next week. It's not exactly over after that, LOL.

Texas alone has 155 up on March 1, and Cruz is up 45-30 there... that translates to about a +20 delegate jump alone. This will be close for a while, no mater how many times Trump supporters claim it is already over.

I’m sure the Fire Marshall was lying when he said it was a record crowd. LOL!

[McGruff]

"Why is Trump campaigning in Arkansas at this time? Did his plane get lost in the fog on the way to New Hampshire?"

He's a nationwide candidate. Unlike that one state wonder Ted Cruz.

Whatever, Rubio the lawn Jockey will creme your Snake Handler.

You Trump guys just miss the point here. It's not about the actual numbers. With Trump it has to be bigger and better than everyone! It really doesn't matter how many he drew. It was indeed a good crowd in any event. But with the Donald it just has to be better and bigger than everyone or he will pretend that it is. And he has to be cruder than everyone else when he speaks. Don't you guys see, he acts like a megalomaniac. And this is the type of person you guys want for president?

“Unless Trump is nominated, that’s what we are going to see for the next 8 years - guaranteed - because there is not a chance in hell Cruz will beat her”

How are you so sure? The polls show that Cruz and Rubio both beat Hildabeast but Trump losses. And Cruz has a bunch more toughness than you give him credit for!

The crowd waited 2 hours as Trump’s plane had to do an emergency stop in another city. The place was full capacity and more.

May I borrow your term? “Snake handler.” Perfect!

YOU said it!

I knew it, I just knew it confirmed what I said yesterday, Trump's rallies would go from Stadium to ballroom. It will get worse next venue will be some diner. The dew is off the rose...

Love the pics. thanks

[sockmonkey]

Liars, just like your Candidate.

If you had watched the rally you would have known they did announce the largest crowd ever.

These pictures are from before the event.

[RitaOK]

Liars and thieves is a pre-req for going “over there”.

Steal from Jim’s house, go over there and brag about the piles you left over here.

Old lobbylu traffics back and forth in that bile, up to her chin.

She has just stopped posting in caps! Ha! But the load of you-know-what is the same as it ever was, and is still her returning gift to FR.

Her parting gift was her lively All Caps melt down, enjoyed by all. Not.

[over3Owithabrain]

Seems like Cruz and the MSM both have to lie to make a political point.

Why lie about Trump’s crowds? They’re real and they’re spectacular!

[reegs]

You obviously DID NOT look at the video pan of the venue while Trump was speaking.

[GilGil]

I saw the event yesterday and the place was packed to cracking. As a matter of fact the person introducing Trump said he was officially told this was an all time record attendance. This article is very dishonest.

[mkjessup]

I see you haven't changed any since your last timeout. How's those Consistent Constipated Conservative values?

Just a minor edit there FRiend, it takes a special kind of dirt bag to post a profane Opus, call good and decent FReepers every name in the book, become a turncoat running off to a bunch of their fellow losers on some obscure Wordpress blog where they trash JimRob and FR with every kind of vile insult, and THEN when their time out gets lifted, they come right back to pick up where they left off.

Shameless, utterly shameless and without honor.

When I saw him in Norfolk VA in the fall the local media was saying on the day of the event that only 200 tickets had been requested. What a lie! The place was packed. It was an outdoor event but it was held at the same place where Romney introduced Ryan as his running mate and the crowd for Trump was about 1.5 times as large.

200 tickets my a$$!
