Are we still talking about crowd size? Lol--that's a Trump thing--who cares?

Did you watch it? The guy is so impressive and inspirational. Very much so.

Trump better get his photos out of storage, because Buttigieg is going to bring in more people. Lots of them. They are starved for honesty, intelligence and real policy solutions. The polar opposite of Trump.

No one was paid. They came through the rain and cold from miles around to be there. I understand the GOP is nervous that there is a really really smart, white Christian veteran, who knows his stuff and has more experience than Trump who is also fit and young. Buckle up--things are going to get rough for the clown.

Of course, if you are aware that anyone was paid--we'd love to know--please present your facts.

Why do I sense WaldoKitty is starting to back a democrat as a fallback in case Trump starts going downhill?

How long until Trump tweets that South Bend is a total disaster zone, and Mayor B. (spelling his name is a lost cause) has failed his city? Of course, never mind that the state of Indiana has had Republican leadership for many years - including the man who is now Trump's own VP.

Thats quite a bit smaller than the 20,000+ that Kamala Harris drew.
Let's see.
  • Pete B. draws a crowd of 6,500 in a metro of 320,000
  • Kamala draws a crowd of 15,000 in a metro of 4,530,000
Kamala was just in Houston. Only 2,100 showed up.


This speaks for itself. Fascinating at how Democrats are so scared of Pete B. that they are hoping and praying that he fails.

It would be one of the few times he's not wrong.

Now Richard Ojeda, *THAT'S* someone who has plenty of room to brag about their military experience.

And actually, I work with a ton of former military folks. Most of them don't go around throwing their experience in everyone's face, even though they probably had more front line experience than this guy.

You seem to really not like him, how come? Because he's a democrat?
