Far left George Soros related Think Progress reported over the weekend about former President Obama’s event in Anaheim, California –

ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA — Former President Obama made his first campaign stop of the midterm elections in Orange County, California Saturday to stump for seven Democratic House candidates running in districts currently held by Republicans but that Hillary Clinton won in 2016.

About 750 people attended the event at Anaheim Convention Center, where Obama delivered a short speech centered on unity and the “politics of hope.” And, after a story about getting kicked out of Disneyland when he was caught smoking in the Magic Kingdom after a concert as a teenager, Obama issued an impassioned critique of Trump and the state of American democracy and encouraged the crowd to back the candidates he came to support.

If it held more a Trump vs Obama may really bring out the deplorables

Well hell, “That’s more than Trump ever got to come out!”

We’ll be hearing that next.

It’s no more outlandish than Obama’s other humdingers.

Perhaps this is the only reliable “poll” out there.

It can’t be down played. There is a greater truth.

In the minds of the 750 was the thought “I am a hundred and thinlk for my colleagues”

Thus, the attendance was not 750 but rather 75,000.

A mere 750? Pfftt.......there were 75,000

Trump has bigger crowds standing OUTSIDE of the venues where he’s speaking.

The Russians were obviously suppressing the turnout. Get with the program.

The thrill is gone
The thrill is gone away for good
Oh, the thrill is gone, baby
It’s gone away for good
Someday I know I’ll be over it all baby
Just like I know a man should

President Trump could get a crowd of 750 by walking out on the White House front yard in his bathrobe to pick up his copy of the Washington Post and drop it in the trash.

There are at least 1500 chairs there. Probably closer to 2000.
