Trump Is Suddenly Very Worried About Elizabeth Warren's Growing Crowds

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) has been drawing increasingly large crowds as she campaigns for the Democratic nomination to run against President Donald Trump. And it’s not just her supporters who have noticed.
On Tuesday, Trump attacked Warren, claiming the media reports inflated her crowd size. Then, for good measure, he threw in his racist nickname for her:


Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump

They do stories so big on Elizabeth “Pocahontas” Warren’s crowd sizes, adding many more people than are actually there, and yet my crowds, which are far bigger, get no coverage at all. Fake News!


Last weekend, Warren drew a crowd that her campaign estimated at 15,000 in Seattle. After the event, she spent hours posing for selfies with supporters who stood in a line that stretched around the park.

Although Trump still routinely packs arenas, he famously obsesses over his crowd sizes and often wildly inflates the number, especially when it comes to those gathered outside. Last year, for example, Trump claimed to have an overflow crowd of 45,000 people outside a rally in Missouri. However, a city official told CNN that “1,000 or so” were outside.

...the brainless one is focused on the wrong thing.

By the way, there's a pretty big crowd in a little region called "China." He's pissed them off, royally.

claiming victimhood (while victimizing), slandering everyone, blaming anyone, never accepting responsibility, fighting everything in the courts.

only a sociopath could be so consistently craven and shameless.

so far, this approach is working great for him. He's President, he's not getting Impeached, he's defanged every branch of the government that could have challenged him.

America = fucked.

Photos of the outside never show more than a thousand people, and oftentimes just hundreds.

Trump reminds me of Loki in this scene from The Avengers.



Hulk is the world's democratically elected leaders.

Trump is a puny god.

But that was hilarious! Even with the sound off... I could almost hear the thwack thwack thwack thwack thwack.

I would guess that the world leaders you're referring to daydream about something like that when they have to interact with him.
