4. Last week, someone posted a Craigslist ad for rally attendees.

When I looked at the crowd, I wondered how many were paid to be there.

I tell you what, you couldn't pay me to be there.

No telling if the breakdown of that Tweet is true. Seems to me, he could've pulled in more than 1578, especially considering how red the area is. He's going to have to face the fact that he's lost his "charm".

Yet, even if all the 6116 were true MAGAts, that is an embarrassing low turnout. Good thing they placed that ad. This puts a nice big smile on my face.
