January 24, 20179 yr Okay. We are making some progress. I don't see any posters above who responded that are drinking all the #orangekoolaid . A couple took the Kelly Ann Conyou method to try and divert and excuse Trump's claim that it was the largest in person crowd ever. But, no one is completely buying Trump/Spicer's claim. That's good. My main point in asking the question is to make sure we don't have any full out Trump cult members. There is zero doubt Trump's in person crowd was smaller. I am glad no one is trying to argue that point (although JJ got really close with the pictures he posted ... that #orangekoolaid was in his mouth but it looks like he didn't drink it). I really don't care whose crowd was larger and for obvious reasons (as several pointed out above) we all should expect Obama's first crowd to be the largest. I don't think it is that big a deal to anyone ... except Trump! And that is the problem. His ego pushes him to lie about this or at least put the spin cycle on turbo? Why? This is the stuff that worries me about Trump. It isn't policy issues. It is silly ego issues that I worry warp his rational thinking. Anyway, we all have beat this inconsequential topic to death. Moving on.
January 24, 20179 yr I was not posting the pics to prove Trumps crowd was bigger. I dont think Trumps crowd was bigger. I think that is evident with the pics I posted. I doubt any president ever has as many as the first black president. JJ likes to push your guys buttons.
January 24, 20179 yr We have 5 pages in a thread about a crowd size picture. The fact that this thread even exists is a sad, sad indictment on us BGP members.

January 24, 20179 yr Er, perhaps the thread is fueled by the new administration repeatedly lying about something so easily disprovable and petty. You're right, the whole thing is incredibly petty, and the fact that we have a thread on it is pathetic.
January 24, 20179 yr Yes and no. Yes, stupid topic and waste of time all because of Trump's ego. No, because Trump's handling of this is insightful to who he is and how he will govern.
January 27, 20179 yr Author Washington Post reports President Trump called the head of the National Parks on Saturday morning to pressure him to find pictures that showed the media was wrong. Good lord. Help us.

February 2, 20179 yr Author WaPo reports that in a call to Australia's PM that President Trump bragged about the size of the crowd.
February 2, 20179 yr Then Pence for 8 more. At the rate the Democrats are conducting business this is not going to work out well for them.
February 3, 20179 yr We have 5 pages in a thread about a crowd size picture. The fact that this thread even exists is a sad, sad indictment on us BGP members. This subject is so January, 2017 UKMF...time to turn the page:)
February 3, 20179 yr Only 7 years and 11 more months to go. Then Pence for 8 more. At the rate the Democrats are conducting business this is not going to work out well for them. OH I remember in 2012 when the Cats were going to win the next three championships. Or Earlier this year when Dems would hold it all for years to come. Both of the above are ridiculous posts in this political climate.
