Not nearly as many people as there are in the streets of Teheran, shouting, "Death to America,"

Trump claimed during his campaign speech today, as he almost always does, that there were thousands of people outside the church trying to get in. Here's a photo Al Jazeera took of the crowd outside as he spoke.



From our @AJEnglish Miami producer @KarimHddd who is outside the venue. This is during his remarks.

or the fall of Saddam's statue, organized by the U.S....or even the campaign rallies the Russians organized, as reported in the Mueller Report. I don't think there's anything we can accuse another government of doing, that we can say hasn't been done here. Maybe it's a human thing..
