I counted number of people in a block of the bleachers, counted the number blocks.

Counted the number of rows and columns of seats.

I estimated 2000 based on that. So maybe 4000 if I had made an egregious error of some sort in my method.

It was reported after the rally was over - not beforehand as a prediction regarding how many were 'expected' to be there.

Looks like NPR should check their sources better.

Apparently there’s a club who have attended more than 100 of those horrible little screeds. Can you imagine?

How fucking tedious it must be to have these people unavoidably in your life... This shit is BORING and empty and repetitive and unoriginal.

Not sure why DU is obsessed with how many people went to this rally. 2,000, 5,000, doesn't matter.

What I do think is funny is that he had this crown standing on blacktop in the sun for hours.

And the rest gullible idiots who just love to let themselves be led around by the nose. They would have gone to see the Great Pumpkin, as long as they were told he was a good Republican.
