Trump has problem that Rubio, Cruz, Hillary wish they had. Massive crowds too large for venues.

Trump held two rallies today. Both had to be outside because there was no room for them inside.

Trump is a liar and a con man. He keeps taunting the pool cameras for not doing wide shots when he knows damn well they can't. His supporters are idiots.

What do you mean THEY CAN"T???? The press doesn't seem to have a problem turning the cameras when there is a protester in the crowd!!

He points out, quite correctly, they sure don't have any problems panning the cameras when there is a protester being tossed out.

We think Trump's large crowd method could fail him in the general election. Clinton goes from town to town, meeting people, shaking hands, hearing what they have to say.
Trump is not the type to ride around from town to town on a bus all day and shaking hands.

He hopes that if he speaks to a crowd of 10,000 that most of them will go out and vote for him. That may not work against Clinton.

Hmm. Clinton did this in NH and she lost big time.

She isn't holding big rallies because nobody comes to them.

She gives speeches in bathroom size events and I hear that is very popular for her but we don't get to see the transcripts to know what was said. So it's a little hard to judge the effect of that.

ABC, CBS,CNN, FOX and NBc use pool cameras. The agreement, reached many years ago stipulate a tight shot on the speaker. I guess in case they faint or get shot.

tHe crowd shot comes from any other camera on the platform. Maybe even Trump's. He can hire whomever he wants. He could do commercials if he were really serious. He is just whipping people up to hate the media some more.

It is bad enough at 90% of what we see and hear are controlled by 6 companies. But, he never mentions that.
