Trump draws less than 200 supporters at his "giant Wisconsin rally."





?s=20




Ha! Trump’s MAGA campaign rally tonight in Green Bay, Wisconsin had a pathetically SMALL turnout — way less than 500 people!

Do NOT share this — Trump will be really UPSET! 🤣🤣

So they held it in a tiny room to make it look like a lot more people.
Trump should have had thousands there, not hundreds. The luster is fading.
I get the feeling the crowd is made up of groupies that follow Trump from rally to rally.

many are paid "supporters" who sign agreements to not embarrass their messiah.

Nothing with Trump is as it seems. It's all carefully planned and choreographed, even the so-called "spontaneous" acts they showcase.

I'm not sure where they source their shills. My guess is they recruit local "talent" via some area nazi facebook groups, or straight from talent agencies...

Remember how he filled his 2015 phony campaign kick-off with paid actors?

June 17, 2015 2:53pm

Donald Trump‘s big presidential announcement Tuesday was made a little bigger with help from paid actors — at $50 a pop.

New York-based Extra Mile Casting sent an email last Friday to its client list of background actors, seeking extras to beef up attendance at Trump’s event.

“We are looking to cast people for the event to wear t-shirts and carry signs and help cheer him in support of his announcement,” reads the June 12 email, obtained by The Hollywood Reporter. “We understand this is not a traditional ‘background job,’ but we believe acting comes in all forms and this is inclusive of that school of thought.”

The appropriate number should around 5. Maybe 7, if the event falls on his birthday.

The local TV news stations hyped his visit for a few days leading up (as well as Biden's visit to Madison on Monday). I know the weather wasn't the best, but these are cult members. In an area that leans conservative.

When will the light come on for these idiots, that no one likes their candidate? That's he's a rapist, a crook, a scam artist, a scammer, and certainly not a Christian.

God warned people to beware of false prophets, and here these idiots are, doing just that, worshipping him.

...of why I keep saying he obviously doesn't have nearly as much support as he used to have.

He is NOT going to win in November. He'll try to steal the election, because he knows that's his only hope. But the country will be ready for him this time!

He's going down down down down...
