Springsteen Fans Roast Trump For Bizarre Boast About Size Of New Jersey Crowd
Huffpost, Yahoo ^ | 5/12/24 | Kelby Vera

Trump: Is there anything better than a Trump rally? These liberal singers, they actually vote for me. You know, like Bruce Springsteen. We have a much bigger crowd than Bruce Springsteen. Right? pic.twitter.com/avB1njR58v

A spokesperson for the city of Wildwood backed Trump’s claim.

Lisa Fagan told The Associated Press she estimated the crowd had to be between 80,000 and 100,000 people, based on her observations of smaller events which took place in the same space.

But footage from the rally made those stats fairly hard to believe.

While Trump fans packed the rafters behind him, video showed an embarrassingly sparse crowd in front of the former president ― an audience that grew even thinner as his 90-plus-minute speech droned on.

I never was either, but then I don’t mind others thinking he
was something special.

There’s no mistaken thought that I am a very good judge of
such things, as music on the radio grates me after about
ten minutes, and always has. It just become noise I can
easily do without.

Years ago I thought it was a patriotic song.

Actually, I take part of what I said back. The first image, you can click on it and open it on another window, then click on it and you get a huge pannable image. The crowd fills in the area of the white tent in the back, where the screening was, and there is only empty areas around the vendors...

Therefore it was likely 95% + filled, and you can see there are overflow people outside the venue in the lines to the screening area, and to the upper right, that stayed to see or hear what they could.

The crowd in the flag picture fills in the area of the white tent in the back, where the screening was, and there is only empty areas around the vendors to the upper left...

Springsteen sings like he’s trying to pass a bowling ball.

“born in the USA” was about his hatred for our nation ...

Look carefully at the album cover, and notice what he's doing to the American flag.

Springsteen is from North Jersey, and that stadium is in North Jersey. Do people in South Jersey love Springsteen as much as North Jersey does?

I guess I am a little frustrated that people don’t realize that the entertainment (sports, music, acting) industries produce very, very, few God-fearing conservative minded ‘celebrities’.

These celebrities become ‘role models’ for not just kids, but also young adults.

I remember flipping through a ‘People’ magazine for the first time, around 1987, in the break room at work. I put it down knowing I was only going to lower my intellect if I kept looking through it. Programming comes in many forms.

The LAAP-dog media typically takes a photo from earlier in the day and tries to pass it off as low turnout during the actual rally.

In the top picture, look at the red booth standing alone in the sand beyond the fenced off area. Not that the shadow is roughly pointing in a "southeast" direction.

Now look at that same red booth the lower picture. The shadow is pointing directly at the crowd, indicating that the second picture was taken hours later after everyone arrived.

The good news is that AI is about to replace celebrities.

Just show any Biden ‘rally’ up against any Trump rally and put pip-squeak Bruce fans to shame.

This should get Trump a few million more New Joysey votes. Brucey is a real has been. Nobody really cares what he thinks.

People magazine was offensive to me, just on the premise of
it. It was an insinuation my life wouldn’t be complete if I
didn’t know every detail of famous people’s lives.

Gag...

There are very few people in this world, I would want my
kids to model their lives after.

perveyur of 3 chords? Springsteen wrote hits for others. “Blinded by the light, Because the night, and “fire” by the pointer sisters. I dont care for his politics that aside, the guy wrote some huge hits.
