Trump doesn't like this photo.

[SidDithers]

1. I counted 91 people in the stands...

Sid

[Kingofalldems]

2. I cop for every two people.

[2naSalit]

72. That's what it will be like

at all public events from now on, and that includes walking while breathing.

[lpbk2713]

3. Some may have just been passing by ...

and were curious what all the fuss was about.

[onethatcares]

24. who?

the cops???

[BlancheSplanchnik]

22. Counting.

Stop that. Herr Golddusche doesn't like counting.

Let the diebold machines do that.

[cstanleytech]

52. No he likes it just fine as with his math every person really equals about 7 people and

you just cant see the other 6 out of 7 because they had to use the restroom.

[BlancheSplanchnik]

67. Oh right. I forgot.

Well then, all is well.

Carry on.

[Angry Dragon]

76. I thought it was more like 1 equals 1 million

the rest were working at jobs Obama got them

[trueblue2007]

48. i shared on my facebook wall and retweeted it of course.

[Lint Head]

4. I did not retweet and that's an alternate fact.

[BlancheSplanchnik]

16. baHAAAAAAA!

[ismnotwasm]

5. Well of course I'm a contrarian..

And immediately retweeted it

[Achilleaze]

6. OK

It is profoundly embarassing for the illegitimate KGOP Regime, Inc. They have the support of Russia, but not of the American people.

[FSogol]

7. K&R. n/t

[world wide wally]

8. Don't delegitimization our President!

That is the HUUGEST crowd EVER!

Right, Winston?

[VOX]

27. Winston's in Room 101 right now, but leave a message after the tone.

Biggest, most massive crowd in the history of mankind. Ever!

[Crash2Parties]

43. It's just the angle the photo was taken from; the crowds were yuge - period.

[joshdawg]

56. Absolutely the largest crowd ever...........

just ask Sean Sphincter.

[C Moon]

9. The police asked those in front to get back in their assigned seats, so everyone could see.

Trump must be spending 95% of his waking hours working on increasing his popularity.

[MFM008]

10. And he can see

It's a big FAIL.

[skypilot]

12. 95% FEWER waking hours...

...might go a long way in helping him achieve that goal.

[kairos12]

11. I demand Alternative Facts now!!

[tenorly]

18. You got it!

Look at all those adoring Trump crowds!



Nothing like il Douche to create great turnout!

[jmowreader]

39. How come the smiling soldier holding the rope looks like Kenneth Mars?

[tenorly]

50. Could be because he was of German descent (he certainly played German characters a good bit).

Many German-American families, as you know, anglicized their last names during World War I. The Drumpfs, famously, changed it to Trump, and in Ken Mars' case (or rather, his father) it was probably Martz.

Now where's my beer; I could use one.

[NastyRiffraff]

13. I didn't retweet.

#alternative facts

[tenorly]

14. Oh, lookee! More people in front of the barriers than behind them.

I bet he's sorry he didn't spring for another round of $50 payouts.

[Sunny05]

25. LoL. Good one. nt

[tenorly]

28. Thanks.

The worst part is, this is the kind of thing we used to identify with third world autocracies. The only thing Trump's missing, is the Mao suit.

[Sunny05]

35. Sadly and horrifyingly true. nt

[Merlot]

38. Wasn't kellyanneconway wearing the suit?

It's a new version, updated for the drumpts. ivanka should be hawking it soon.

As an aside, watch ivanka in any press conference and you'll see her do this thing where she runs her hand down her hair so that everyone can see her bracelet - the one she's hawking. It's a very practiced move, subtle and sleek. Con artist 101 - "look at the pretty shiney thing I own, bet you'd love to have one!"

[lunatica]

36. He did. They're the ones in the photo

It's the same extras that were at the escalator when he announced, but much more space to fill.

[Jim Beard]

15. Hey, they are 4 deep in front of the limo.

[Kingofalldems]

17. Every time Trump tweets my response will be this photo.

[Buckeye_Democrat]

19. Sad!

Actually...

Funny!

[bdamomma]

20. He is not a well man

again it's all about him isn't it???

Everyone hates this guy doesn't he get it????

The first line of “My Way” is:


“And now, the end is near, and so I face the final curtain.”


tRump used this song at his inauguration ball


Sorry I am getting off topic

[oasis]

21. If we could just see the Melania eye roll.

[Turbineguy]

23. They need

to project fake crowds of jubilant supporters onto the inside windows of the car.

[BSdetect]

26. Mostly a crowd of the permanently bewildered or confused tourists.

[Vinca]

29. Sitting room only.

[LakeArenal]

30. They took a wrong turn for the Women's March

and stumbled in by mistake.

[Hamlette]

31. But he hadn't even started speaking yet! nt

[cyndensco]

32. So few onlookers. Sad!

[mahatmakanejeeves]

33. The building behind the stands is a guard building on the White House grounds.

The HUGE!!! parade is in the 1600 block of Pennsylvania Avenue. This is prime territory.

[Fritz Walter]

34. Where's the "Wall of Meat"?

Y'know, the thousands and thousands of pro-Drumpf bikers, that were supposed to show their support, and augment the presence and impenetrable force of the Secret Service, Capital PD, and National Guard?

Diverted by a two-for-one drinks special at TGI Fridays in the 'burbs?

Ran out of gas -- and guts -- on the PA Turnpike, or D.C. beltway?

Or couldn't get time off from work at the sewage treatment plant in their respective hometowns?

[jmowreader]

41. They found out how cold it actually is in DC in January

[IronLionZion]

62. It was unseasonably warm

around 50 degrees and wet. I was out and about in a hoodie and was fine.

The funny part was the timing of the rain. It started just around the time Dumpy started speaking and didn't end until his inauguration and parade were over

Mr. Trump said that though he had been “hit by a couple of drops” of rain as he began his address on Inauguration Day, the sky soon cleared. “And the truth is, it stopped immediately, and then became sunny,” he said. “And I walked off, and it poured after I left. It poured.”

The truth is that it began to rain lightly almost exactly as Mr. Trump began to speak and continued to do so throughout his remarks, which lasted about 18 minutes, and after he finished.

https://www.nytimes.com/2017/01/22/us/politics/president-trump-inauguration-crowd-white-house.html

[IronLionZion]

61. Maybe 40-50 or so bikers

were parked in my neighborhood in front of a park. There weren't thousands of bikers in the city at any time.

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

37. Oh, my goodness.

That's actually pathetic.

[Merlot]

40. No, it's not pathetic, it's inspiring!

It tells more truth about Americans than drumptf ever will.

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

44. Except that despite the obvious lack of support for him,

he's charging right ahead with defunding the best parts of our culture, and there's a bill to pull us out of the U.N.

And those are just starters.

He is going to do so very much damage however long he's President, and if he leaves the office and Pence takes over, it won't be any better.

[Merlot]

46. I'll take small victories where ever I find them.

At least he isn't doing those things AND has throngs of cheering crowds.

I agree that pense will be as bad or worse. pense would never have won the election, he's horrible. People need a villain and drumpts makes the perfect face for that, really he's just the republican addenda on steroids. If drumptf leave, the agenda will still go forward.

[bucolic_frolic]

42. The money we spend on that hoopla is obscene

[ananda]

45. Wow, thousands of people must be wearing ..

.. those empty bleacher costumes .. or invisibility cloaks.

[PatSeg]

47. Now that is just flat out mean!!!

I would never dream of retweeting that............so I'm spreading it all over Facebook instead!

[StubbornThings]

49. Most devastating photo of inauguration!

I love it

[asuhornets]

51. I must...It's the only way...n/t

[onetexan]

53. send it to all the news outlets

this is the 1.5 million the dimwitted kellyanne was disputing

[George II]

54. They were all hanging out in Don's Johns

[WhiteTara]

55. I shared on Facebook in case people don't know

that Trump doesn't want this shown.

[IMWITHHERR]

78. Embarrassment

Of course they will deny it. They probably have already altered one with people in the stands.

[Rorey]

57. I was almost too stunned to laugh

I watched the parade for a bit, and when the camera panned down the stands, stopping at the trump's little building, you could clearly see that the stands were practically empty even close to that building where the trumps were viewing. It was, um, sad. And the trumps all looked like they couldn't wait for it to be over so their suffering would end.

[Cha]

58. I wonder why? I think it's adorable

Rofl

Link to tweet

[LaydeeBug]

59. I posted this on FB and was told it was fake. I am not kidding. nt

[Eleanors38]

74. It is! See that B-17 flying over the cruiser U.S.S. Pensacola?? Sad.

[gfwzig]

60. you cannot count, this is a picture of 200,000 ...why are you disagreeing with "fearless leader"???

[mahatmakanejeeves]

63. This is the rehearsal. Here's why I think so.

I've had time to think about this overnight. The reason I am certain this is not from the inauguration is the clothing being worn.

These stands are directly behind the White House. This is the plaza where people play roller hockey. It has been closed to traffic for years. This is prime territory. For the inauguration, people would be dressed in suits, the finest garments they owned.

Look at them. They're wearing Tommy Hilfiger ski parkas from Ross Dress for Less and hoodies from Banana Republic.

I haven't read LaydeeBug's post, but she says she was told this is a fake. It's not a fake, and it's not Photoshopped. It's just not from January 20 and the inauguration.

Nope, this is from the rehearsal.

[jayschool2013]

64. Spicer just released this video

[mahatmakanejeeves]

66. Welcome to DU.

Seriously, the people who would be in the stands behind the White House would be dressed up. You don't get those tickets on eBay. For a lot of them, it would be a once in a lifetime experience. They'd make sure they were wearing their best attire.

[nini]

77. Why are they all taking pictures then?

Seems ok..

[mahatmakanejeeves]

80. People take pictures of rehearsals too. NT

[nini]

81. Not buying it

sorry

[mahatmakanejeeves]

83. I could be wrong. Wait; I am wrong.

I went to Google Images. I came up with lots of pictures. It seems to me that people should be better dressed, considering the location of the stands. I don't mean that as an admonishment; I say that based on pictures from previous inaugurations.

Anyway, the pictures are revealing. Here are some links:

No One Came to Donald Trump’s Little Parade

By Ben Mathis-Lilley

There were a lot of empty seats in the stands along Trump's parade route

William Cummings, USA TODAY Published 6:26 p.m. ET Jan. 20, 2017 | Updated 8:30 p.m. ET Jan. 20, 2017

I did not watch the parade on TV or listen to it on the radio. This thread is the first place I've seen pictures of the empty stands.

I am surprised, but I am wrong regardless.

I can just imagine how steamed Snowflake is. I'll get over it, but he won't.

Best wishes.

Thanks for the correction.

[nolabels]

65. I don't do twitter much, but i will hang it on my dashboard

Like heck, i would of expected at least some of the thirtypercenters to show up

Btw, this one looks like it's worth framing

[Blue Owl]

68. The Trumperor's new fan club

n/t

[gopiscrap]

69. Ha Ha

What a self centered conceited asshole

[Roy Rolling]

70. I already didn't retweet it

Dozens of times.

Oops, did I say "didn't"? My bad. I meant the opposite.

[Sancho]

71. There's already a fake news story about this picture...

on FB the repubs say it was not a picture from Trump's parade...the insanity is going to continue.

[left-of-center2012]

73. Oh damn!

Sorry. I posted it on my Facebook page.

[BRMCOne]

75. Clearly...

They were all hiding in fear of the rampant Grizzly Bears.

[DFW]

79. A cast of dozens!

Huge!

No?, Would you believe "immense?"

No? Would you believe "big?"

No? OK, how about "most well-attended picnic in Washington in January ever recorded?"
