Daughter of MLK Jr. replies to Trump’s crowd size claims in comparison to her father's
1,338
Published 2024-08-09
The House Select Committee that investigated the events of Jan. 6 estimated that Trump drew 53,000 people to the National Mall, the same area where crowds gathered to hear King in 1963.
However, according to the National Park Service, which manages the mall, about 250,000 people were present for King's speech, stretching from the Lincoln Memorial to the Washington Monument.

"A big strong man, muscles out to here, came up to me with a tear in his eye and said 'Sir, you have the biggest and most glorious hands I've ever seen.' I patted his shoulder with my yuge hands and said 'thanks, patriot'". 😮 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 He writes fan fiction? So can I.

looking for "traction" in all the wrong places

"No one draws bigger crowds than me!" Hah! Even the MAGA people can't buy that one!
-
Perhaps he’s compensating.

Many people are saying that if you speak frequently about size you are realllly worried about size. Thanks for confirmation, tiny. 😊
-
And here is the kicker, there was half the population in the sixties and transportation more difficult. MLK's 250,000 is a lot more adjusted for todays crowd size.

Would you agree that common sense tells us what other people don’t want us to hear?💛
