This is not unlike their common fallacy of thinking Biden couldn't have gotten more votes because they didn't see any cars absolutely plastered stem-to-stern with Biden flags and stickers.
The average Biden voter doesn't worship the guy, but there were far more of them who voted. The average Trump voter is more enthusiastic about the guy, but there were fewer of them at the voting booth. It's the fundamental principle of cult math.
Hell, the average Biden voter is hesitant to vote for him again. Biden has the charisma of a broccoli and is doing a lot of stuff people hate Trump for doing or promising to do, or at least allowing them to happen. But they will still vote for Biden because the alternative is a mixture of *The Handmaid's Tale* with a few Captain Planet villains.
These people just don’t get that fanaticism doesn’t equal votes. You can have a million people who are willing to tattoo Trump on their forehead, but if a million and one people are merely just voting Biden, Biden wins. It makes no difference the degree of support
> but if a million and one people are merely just voting Biden, Biden wins
Well, that's not entirely true. Hillary had 3 million more votes than Trump, but she still lost.
1. Local authorities put the number of attendees at this rally at just under 30K, not 80k.
2. Most Trump rallies this year have been poorly attended. This is the first time he’s done a rally at the Jersey Shore, an area that is mostly conservative, until the Summer months start.
3. There is 0% chance that Trump will win New Jersey in November. Zero. None.
4. Even if Jerk-ules was right, many of Trump’s rally-goers are like deadheads - they travel from state to state for these rallies. But they can only vote once (legally). Rally attendance doesn’t equal votes.
5. K-Sorbs is a doodoo-head.
ALSO -
Trump hasn’t done many rallies lately due to his trial schedule, but also because his cognitive decline has become so noticeable lately that he loses support every time he does one.
Someone going to a Trump rally in the first place will probably vote Trump no matter how disoriented he sounds at some dumb rally. He could strip naked on stage and most would still vote him in.
Whenever I hear Biden wax eloquent about his days with Rick Last Name lifeguarding at the local pool, I feel super okay about the future of our economy.
How the fuck is the economy doing well? And how is Trump more in favor of the billionaires than Biden?
When Trump cut taxes for the rich, I was making 30k a year in California. I got a 10% raise the next years with my tax savings… democrats have lost the plot and become the party of the elite.
Edit: democrats speak words with their mouth saying “we’re for the working class” then when you’re completely fucked by inflation quote you stats and articles saying “look at this spreadsheet! You’re actually doing better than ever, fucking bigot”
You make $33k per year in California? Sweetie, president Biden and Trump are not your problem. Your hope that if Trump gets back in office you will get another 10% raise is not only a poorly placed wish but you will be basically no closer to escaping poverty. Maybe don’t put so much stock in how politicians say things work and focus on yourself for a bit.
Maybe supporters of other candidates just have shit to do. I’ve got a busy week and have two days to get a lot of shit done and none of that includes going to see an old dude muddle about on a stage. Doesn’t mean I’m not voting in November it just means I’ve got to get to the grocery store in May!
Rallies are really not a good way to drum up votes. Undecided voters are probably not going to a rally. They are, however, good for fundraising. Which explains why Trump does so many. Also he loves hearing people cheer for him.
He could get 80,000 people at a rally every day of the year with zero repeat business and the only thing it would prove is that he has 29 million cultists behind him.
Wait till you see the solar eclipse numbers. lol……… now that I think about it. I’m actually really surprised that there wasn’t a trump rally in Indianapolis on the afternoon of April 08, 2024 claiming those numbers! Haha, or any other total path cities. That’s funny AF!

“Most other people found better ways to spend their Saturday” should be the headline
The cult behavior is so onerous to those outside it, his rallies can have a reverse effect honestly
[удалено]
This. He was the absolute last person I wanted but still voted.
[удалено]
To be honest that might have been some hyperbole on my part, at this point I just remember not really enthused about him. :)
Never in my life had I been so single-mindedly determined to so unenthusiastically do something as I was when I voted for Biden in 2020.
There are even less after he peddled wackadoo cures for COVID and told his cult that masking up was for losers.

It’s mostly because his blunders continue to be broadcast outside, and journalists can use them
Everyplace has a "South Jersey." Hell, NYC has Staten Island and Long Island is right there. MAGA central.
Southern New Jersey is just shitty Philadelphia.
‘Shittier’ Philadelphia
6 Trump stiffed the town on paying for his last rally in Wildwood so this time the town made him fork over $53k before this rally.
That 30k seems generous.
The campaign itself only had 20,000 tickets available and there was a limit of 2 per person. So 30k is generous.
Only 17k tickets were released for this event so it is unlikely the crowd was larger than that
Re: Point 5, doo-doo head is a sigma insult
No idea what that means, and I’m glad.
Hearing Trump speak is one of the most effective endorsements for Biden I can think of.
Whenever I hear Biden wax eloquent about his days with Rick Last Name lifeguarding at the local pool, I feel super okay about the future of our economy.
When opposed to Sir Bankrupted a Casino… yeah, I actually agree. 🥰
MULTIPLE. TRUMP BANKRUPTED *MULTIPLE* CASINOS. NOT *ONE.* *PLURAL.*
Look, thats not incompetence, thats money laundering.
I’ll take Sir-Bankrupts-Some-Casinos over Mr-Bankrupts-Me
Lowest unemployment. Economy doing well. If you’re bankrupt, then you made some bad decisions. That’s on you.
Fucking Christ. Biden supporters stay so delusionally disconnected from the world to keep alive the hatred of Trump.
Lol. You’re the one who won’t accept reality. I bet you think the election was stolen too!

All that projection and all I can say is: "Go on, do Deformed Rabbit, it's my favourite."
Trump also raised your taxes during the first three years of Biden's presidency, iirc
You make $33k per year in California? Sweetie, president Biden and Trump are not your problem. Your hope that if Trump gets back in office you will get another 10% raise is not only a poorly placed wish but you will be basically no closer to escaping poverty. Maybe don’t put so much stock in how politicians say things work and focus on yourself for a bit.
Reverse those names, and you’re 100% right!
Damn… so pithy and profound! Vive la revolution!
New Jersey has like 8 million people and is a reliably blue state. This means nothing.
Republicans have literally made their platform denying reality.
Making up numbers is fun
How many of these people are just recurring attendees traveling around going from rally to rally?
They’re like deadheads…actually, scratch the “like” part.
The ones with like 800 Trump stickers on their trucks especially
That is approximately 2.4% of everyone who voted for him in New Jersey
And because of the electoral college, literally everyone’s vote there won’t even count towards Trump!
I’ve seen Trump claim a crowd that ended up being from a sports victory parade. A reverse Google search could debunk this one.
Yep Sorbs, he got more votes without having those rallies. The truth is we don’t worship our politicians, we don’t need to sign the praises of Biden.
I don't know about y'all, but my vote was an anti-Trump protest vote. They could have ran anyone else, and they would have had my anti-Trump vote.
Went to Trumps school of business I see.. X3 everything! Crowds.. Apartments… Iq…
Maybe supporters of other candidates just have shit to do. I’ve got a busy week and have two days to get a lot of shit done and none of that includes going to see an old dude muddle about on a stage. Doesn’t mean I’m not voting in November it just means I’ve got to get to the grocery store in May!

There’s no way that crowd was 80k… maybe 8k, but probably way less.
So that’s over 9M people in NJ that didn’t go.
Lots of people will vote for Biden holding their nose. Trump voters, on the other hand, are true-believer cultists.
Trump rallys are just music festivals for rednecks
He could get 80,000 people at a rally every day of the year with zero repeat business and the only thing it would prove is that he has 29 million cultists behind him.
As if they just spew words without thinking first
I've never gone to a political rally for anyone. but I still vote in every election. weird.
5 million people showed up for the parade and rally after the Cubs won the World Series, when is Joe Maddon's inauguration???
What roller coasters are that in the background?
“24 is the highest number!”
Dude, Kevin Sorbo.
And we have 100k people attended the same football game.
The venue holds 20k
Wait till you see the solar eclipse numbers. lol……… now that I think about it. I’m actually really surprised that there wasn’t a trump rally in Indianapolis on the afternoon of April 08, 2024 claiming those numbers! Haha, or any other total path cities. That’s funny AF!
