empty seat when a video surfaced showing empty seats at Donald Trump's in wils bar Pennsylvania everyone was a little bit taken aback the footage posted by kamla Harris's campaign account quickly went

of his greatest hits of incoherent rambling I mean this shouldn't be the scene for someone who's running for president of the United States even a high school high school pep rally where the principal is still figuring out how to use a microphone would show more enthusiasm the video cleverly captioned Trump's audience is exiting as he Rambles incoherently in 1:04 Pennsylvania leaving even more empty seats was viewed 4.8 million times by Sunday which is probably more than the number of people who've actually heard him finish a sentence lately the video shows people leaving a section of the auditorium along the side of the Trump rally which has many empty seats the section appears to be behind the stage with a muffled Trump herd speaking in the background Trump wasted no time in responding taking to his platform truth social he dismissed the video authenticity claiming it was taken before the rally began Trump insisted the venue was packed with thousands more supporters turned away due to space constraints Trump accused Harris of spreading misinformation labeling her a crooked radical left politician and linking her to a broader conspiracy to remove President Joe Biden which he alleged involved other prominent Democrats Trump's supporters quickly rallied behind him on social media accusing Harris of Deceit and posting their own videos showing a packed venue they argued that the video posted by at Kamal Q was Miss leading and taken out of context that did not stop Obama early 2:03 last month from saying or more appropriately describing what he thinks about Donald Trump and his supporters obsession with crowd sizes there's the childish nicknames the crazy conspiracy theories this weird obsession with crowd sizes while Obama made everyone know Trump was losing steam at the DNC on social media it was a different ball game the back and forth on social media only intensified with both sides doubling down on their claims as the controversy grew it became clear that this was more than just a dispute over empty seats it was a battle for public perception and political Leverage The Empty seats controversy at Trump's rally in wils bar Pennsylvania has far-reaching implications Beyond just a viral video it highlights the intense scrutiny and high stakes of the political climate leading up to the elections you don't have to be a political analyst to know that this does not look good for Trump and his team this incident is a sign that there are deeper issues within Trump's campaign strategy the former president has always prided himself on drawing large enthusiastic crowds using packed venues 3:05 as a symbol of his enduring popularity and influence the video of empty seats challenges this narrative raising questions about his ability to mobilize his base Trump's rallies have long been a Cornerstone of his campaign strategy serving as both a platform to energize his supporters and a tool to project strength the image of empty seats threatens to undermine this carefully crafted image giving his opponents ammunition to question his relevance and appeal for Comm Harris and the Democratic party the controversy provides an opportunity to cast doubt on Trump's claims of widespread support by highlighting the empty seats they aim to portray Trump as a leader losing his grip on his base potentially swaying undecided voters the social media Firestorm surrounding the video also underscores the power of digital Platforms in shaping public perception in an era where viral content can influence political narratives both campaigns are leveraging social media to their advantage engaging in a digital tug of war for the hearts and mind of Voters Trump's crowd pulling problem did not start recently it goes back to 2017 4:05 after the inauguration When Donald Trump was inaugurated as the 45th president of the United States on January 20th 2017 the event sparked a controversy that quickly became one of the defining moments of his early presidency the issue at hand was the size of the crowd that attended his inauguration which by most accounts was significantly smaller 4:25 than that of his predecessor Barack Obama in 2009 on the day of the inauguration 4:30 as the ceremonies unfolded it became clear that the National Mall was not as packed as it had been 8 years prior 4:36 aerial photographs showed large swaths of empty space something that did not go unnoticed by the public or the media the 4:42 photos were soon splashed across news outlets and social media leading to widespread commentary and comparison 4:48 Trump known for his sensitivity to public perception took this as a direct affront rather than letting the matter 4:54 rest he addressed it headon during a speech at the CIA headquarters the very next day standing before the memorial 5:00 wall honoring Fallen CIA officers he claimed that the media had deliberately misrepresented the size of the crowd to 5:06 undermine him Shan Spicer had insisted that the inauguration had drawn the largest audience to ever witness an 5:12 inauguration period both in person and around the world via television and the internet all of this space was full when 5:18 the president took the oath of office we know that 420,000 people used the DC 5:24 Metro Public Transit yesterday which actually compares to 317,000 5:29 that used it for President Obama's last Inaugural this was the largest audience to ever witness an inauguration period 5:37 to further bolster this claim Trump and his team continued to assert that the crowd had been far larger than reported 5:43 even though evidence to the contrary was readily available press secretary Shan Spicer was sent out to repeat the 5:48 assertion famously declaring that this was the largest audience to ever witness an inauguration both in person and 5:55 around the globe this statement which was quickly debunked by fact Checkers only fueled the controversy the 6:00 insistence on the crowd size was seen by many as an overcompensation for what was in reality a fairly standard turnout for 6:07 a presidential inauguration but for Trump who often equated crowd siiz with popularity and success it was a matter 6:13 of personal and political Pride his reaction became emblematic of his approach to the presidency where 6:18 perception and image were just as important if not more so than the facts in the days that followed alternative 6:24 facts became a phrase synonymous with the Trump Administration poined by his adviser kellyanne Conway in defense of 6:30 the administration's claims about the inauguration crowd the incident set the tone for a presidency often at odds with 6:36 the media and public perception and it became a frequent reference point in discussions about Trump's relationship 6:42 with truth and his Relentless need to project strength and success even in the face of contradictory evidence back in 6:48 November 8th 2023 during a rally in hiia Florida Trump claimed he was standing in 6:53 front of tens of thousands of supporters however the venue's capacity was only around 5,200 people according to the 7:00 Associated Press images from the rally showed empty bleacher seats although some guests were standing behind a 7:06 section of seats closer to the stage an account supporting Florida Governor Ronda santis in the 2024 GOP 7:12 Presidential primary claimed that people are streaming out of Trump's boring event while he is still speaking next on 7:18 July 29th 2023 at a rally in Erie Pennsylvania NBC News correspondent Gabe 7:23 Gutierrez shared an image showing large sections of empty seats while Trump delivered his speech there was no 7:29 evidence that that attendees who had been in the empty areas moved closer to the former president with no sign of 7:34 unseated people gathered near the stage many times when I'm making a speech which are always sold out with lots of 7:39 people not being able to get into the arena or venue the fake news will watch people come down from the rafters onto 7:45 the floor nearer the stage as soon as this happens the lamestream media starts taking pictures of these once fully 7:51 occupied areas and seats and then come out with a story Trump Arena wasn't full or Trump didn't have a sellout when they 7:57 know that is not true they say it without fail on November 22nd 2023 Trump 8:02 took to truth social to blast the media for publishing photos of empty seats he insisted that thousands of people get 8:09 sent away from every Trump rally and argued that images suggesting otherwise were of once fully occupied areas and 8:15 seats that had been cleared out due to supporters rushing the stage at the beginning of his rallies the media 8:20 responded by questioning Trump's claims pointing out inconsistencies and providing photographic and video 8:26 evidence of empty seats at his events this back and forth between Trump and the media has only fueled the 8:31 controversy with both sides standing firm in their positions with Trump struggling to pull crowds he has 8:37 resorted to his age-old tactic of personal attacks on kamla Harris Trump attacks kamla Donald Trump's history of 8:43 making sexist remarks is well documented and spans decades from his time as a Real Estate Mogul to his tenure as the 8:49 45th president of the United States Trump has often found himself at the center of controversies involving 8:55 derogatory comments about women his latest Target is kamla Harris the vice president of the United States and a 9:01 prominent figure in American politics funny how impacted both their careers differently this vulgar remark 9:07 implied that Harris owed her political rise to sexual favors a baseless and offensive claim that Drew immediate 9:13 backlash this isn't the first time Trump has made lewd references to Harris on August 18th he shared a video by the 9:19 Dilly meme team a group of right-wing content creators the video set to a parody of the elanus moriset song Ironic 9:26 contained the lines she spent her whole damn life down on her knees with an image of Willie Brown the former San 9:31 Francisco mayor appearing behind a picture of Harris and her husband Doug mhof this was a clear attempt to smear 9:37 Harris by alluding to her past relationship with brown a relationship that has been a frequent Target of 9:42 right-wing attacks Trump's attacks on Harris are part of a broader pattern of behavior throughout his career he has 9:48 made numerous derogatory comments about women during the 2016 presidential campaign he famously referred to Hillary 9:55 Clinton as a nasty woman and mocked Carly fiorina's appearance saying look at that face would anyone vote for that 10:01 his Infamous Access Hollywood tape where he bragged about grabbing women without their consent further cemented his 10:06 reputation for misogyny I got to use some Tic Tacs just in case I start kissing her you know I'm automatically 10:12 attracted to beautiful I just start kissing them it's like a magnet you're just kidding I don't even way and when 10:18 you're a star they let you do it you can do anything whatever you want grab them by the but why is Trump targeting Harris 10:25 so aggressively now one reason could be her Rising popularity fresh polls show Harris further improving her standing 10:31 and widening the Gap with her opponent among Women Voters a reuter's ipsos poll from late August showed Harris with a 10:36 fourpoint nationwide lead over Trump 45% to 41% among women Harris's lead 10:42 increased to 133% compared to an average of 9% in polls from July this growing 10:47 support among Women Voters could be seen as a threat to Trump's campaign prompting him to resort to personal 10:52 attacks Trump's latest Outburst came amid a flurry of Other Extreme posts on Truth social he shared tributes to the Q 10:59 on conspiracy theory which claims that Trump is waging a war against an elite network of Satan worshiping pedophiles 11:05 in government business and the media he reposted the Q andon slogan where we go one we go all and another phrase nothing 11:13 can stop what is coming the FBI has previously identified Fringe theories like qanon as likely to fuel domestic 11:19 terrorism in another incendiary post Trump shared manipulated images of some of his favorite targets including Bill 11:25 Gates Anthony fouchy Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi imprison and wearing orange jumpsuits these posts are part of a 11:32 broader strategy to energize his Base by appealing to their most extreme beliefs and fears Trump is also been criticized 11:38 for his habit of raing people based on their looks he famously called people fat pigs dogs and slobs you've called 11:44 women you don't like fat pigs dogs slobs and disgusting animals your Twitter 11:51 account only Ros oal once he even remarked that if Ivanka Trump weren't his daughter perhaps I'd 11:58 be dating her such statements have reinforced the perception that Trump views women primarily as objects of 12:03 physical attraction rather than as individuals with their own merits and abilities the Harris campaign has not 12:08 responded directly to Trump's latest social media activity however CNN host Anderson Cooper addressed the issue in a 12:15 lengthy segment saying that Trump's posts took his previous campaigning to a whole other level Cooper emphasized that 12:22 Trump was attacking two of the most accomplished women in American political history regardless of one's political 12:27 views the backlash from Trump's own party has been significant Republican strategists have urged Trump to focus on 12:33 issues that matter to voters such as the economy inflation and immigration rather than personal attacks Jason row a former 12:41 executive director of the Michigan Republican party expressed frustration saying that Harris's campaign and policy 12:47 stances provided opportunities for Trump to discuss important issues instead Trump chose to delve into what row 12:53 called nonsense the public and political reaction to Donald Trump's sexist attacks on kamla Harris has been Swift 13:00 and intense as news of his crude posts on Truth social spread condemnation came from various quarters highlighting the 13:06 Deep divisions and heightened emotions in the current political climate the Harris campaign has maintained a strategic silence choosing not to 13:13 respond directly to Trump's inflammatory remarks this decision appears to be a calculated move to avoid giving Trump's 13:20 comments more attention and to focus on the issues that matter to voters however the Silence from Harris's Camp has not 13:26 stopped others from speaking out on her behalf media cover coverage of Trump's posts has been extensive major new 13:32 Outlets including CNN MSNBC and the New York Times have dedicated significant airtime and column space to discussing 13:39 the implications of Trump's attacks CNN host Anderson Cooper in a lengthy segment described Trump's posts as 13:45 taking his previous campaigning to a whole other level Cooper emphasized that Trump was attacking two of the most 13:51 accomplished women in American political history regardless of one's political views this sentiment was echoed by other 13:57 media personalities and commentators who decried Trump's remarks as misogynistic and Unbecoming of a former president the 14:03 backlash from Trump's own party has also been notable Republican strategists and politicians have expressed frustration 14:09 and concern over Trump's focus on personal attacks rather than substantive issues Jason row a former executive 14:16 director of the Michigan Republican party voiced his disappointment stating that Harris's campaign and policy 14:21 stances provided opportunities for Trump to discuss important issues instead Trump chose to delve into what row 14:28 called nonsense this sentiment was shared by other Republican figures who belied that Trump's approach could alienate swing 14:34 voters and harm the party's chances in the upcoming election steuart Stevens a member of the anti-trump Republican 14:40 group The Lincoln project and a strategist for Mitt Romney's failed 2012 presidential bid suggested that Trump's 14:47 approach could ultimately backfire Stevens compared the situation to the 1980 election between Jimmy Carter and 14:52 Ronald Reagan where Reagan won in a landslide he predicted that the bottom would start to drop out of Trump's 14:58 campaign by late October leading to a decisive victory for Harris the public reaction has been equally polarized 15:04 Trump's base remains fiercely loyal often dismissing his sexist remarks as locker room talk or claiming that he is 15:10 simply being Politically Incorrect this unwavering support highlights the Deep divisions in American society and the 15:16 challenges of addressing sexism and misogyny in politics on the other hand many Americans particularly women in 15:22 progressives have expressed outrage and disgust at Trump's comments social media platforms have been flooded with posts 15:29 condemning Trump's behavior and expressing solidarity with Harris meanwhile it is becoming clear that all 15:34 of the name calling and the childish nicknames have just been to take attention away from the performance of 15:39 his campaign Donald Trump's failing campaign at the height of his recent rallies Donald Trump seemed poised for a 15:45 triumphant return His Name blazoned In Lights like a Broadway Marquee with a fist raised in defiance he thanked God 15:51 for sparing him from an Assassin's bullet basking in the Adoration of thousands who saw the moment as a 15:56 coronation of sorts the atmosphere was electric and for a brief moment it seemed that Trump's path to victory was 16:02 all but assured but the cracks in Trump's facade were already beginning to show his Marathon grievance filled 16:08 address at the Republican National Convention hinted at the unraveling of a campaign that had been praised for its 16:13 Newfound discipline and professionalism despite the apparent smoothness of his campaign machine the former president's 16:19 self-discipline was faltering a fact that became glaringly evident when Democrats threw a curveball by replacing 16:25 Joe Biden with kamla Harris as their nominee for weeks Trump's attempts to regain control of the narrative have 16:31 grown increasingly desperate his rallies have become arenas for lashing out where he hurls insults trialing new nicknames 16:38 and indulging in the kind of rhetoric that once galvanized his base but now seems to be wearing thin the disciplined 16:44 campaign that was meant to carry him back to the White House is being derailed by the candidate himself a point underscored by Republican pollster 16:51 Frank lunz the campaign is disciplined their candidate is not Lun noted warning that Trump's pension for personal 16:57 attacks could be his UND doing the assassination attempt seemed to present a Crossroads a moment when Trump might 17:03 have softened might have shown a more reflective side instead the former president doubled down on the very 17:08 behaviors that have always defined him his speeches have grown more erratic his attacks more bizarre as he struggles to 17:14 adapt to the new reality of facing Harris rather than Biden his campaign once laser focused on portraying Biden 17:20 as too old and out of touch now finds itself floundering unable to Pivot effectively to a new opponent Trump's 17:26 inability to change even in the face of adverse has been his Hallmark his campaign leaders Chris lasita and Susie 17:33 WS who once seemed to have him on a tight leash now appear to be losing their grip the president has resorted to 17:38 recycling old Grievances and conspiracy theories with increasingly less impact his nicknames for Harris like laugh and 17:45 Kamala and kambla fall flat and his attempts to smear her intelligence and Heritage reek of desperation in rallies 17:52 across the country Trump's rhetoric has grown more unhinged he's lashed out at fellow Republicans like Georgia Governor 17:57 Brian Kemp who support is crucial in the swing state and made bizarre promises to Evangelical voters that they won't have 18:04 to vote again after this election his remarks have veered into dangerous territory as seen when he questioned 18:10 Harris's mixed race Heritage at a gathering of black journalists a move that backfired spectacularly as the 18:15 polls begin to reflect Harris's growing momentum Trump's campaign finds itself in a precarious position despite his 18:22 administration successes on key issues like immigration and the economy Trump's inability to stick to a coherent message 18:28 is costing him dearly the new trump it seems is the same old Trump unable to change even when his political survival 18:34 depends on it reflecting on the assassination attempt at a rally in Minnesota Trump quipped they all say I 18:40 think he's changed I think he's changed since two weeks ago something affected 18:46 him no I haven't changed maybe I've gotten worse actually because I get angry and therein lies the Crux of 18:52 Trump's unraveling the more things change the more he stays the same to his own detriment Donald Trump's recent 18:58 reliance on personal attacks and unconventional alliances has sparked growing concern among Republicans who 19:04 fear that his strategy is faltering as he struggles to regain momentum against kamla Harris while the GOP is not yet in 19:10 full-blown panic mode there is a palpable anxiety within the party about Trump's inability to effectively counter 19:17 Harris whose rise in the polls and Surge and donations have put Trump on the defensive with just over 2 months left 19:23 in the campaign the shift in sentiment is remarkable given that just weeks ago Trump was riding High with a comfortable 19:29 lead over Joe Biden and his narrow escape from an assassination attempt had only bolstered his support but since 19:35 Harris replaced Biden as the Democratic nominee she has energized the Democratic base overtaken Trump in National polls 19:42 and captured the attention of Voters in key Battleground States Republicans are now grappling with the possibility that 19:48 Trump's once formidable campaign is losing its Edge there have been concerns from prominent Republican donors about 19:54 Trump's current trajectory warning that if he continues down this path he risks losing the election lavine's sentiment 20:00 Echoes a broader unease among GOP strategists who worry that Trump's strategy of attacking Harris with labels 20:06 like comrade kamla and laughing kamla is falling flat while his Embrace of Fringe figures like Robert F Kennedy Jr and 20:12 Tulsi gabard May alienate mainstream voters Republican strategist John FY highlighted the growing nervousness 20:18 within the party pointing to fears about Trump's ability to maintain a disciplined message the effectiveness of 20:23 the Republican ground game and the resources needed to Define Harris negatively fer like Trump's approach to 20:29 throwing a lot of spaghetti at the wall to see what sticks a strategy that may have worked in the past but is now 20:35 showing signs of where Trump's pension for personal attacks has not helped his cause his repeated questioning of 20:41 Harris's race coupled with bizarre and offensive posts on social media have drawn criticism from within his own 20:47 party his recent anti-semitic remarks about Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro and contradictory statements about 20:52 Georgia's Republican Governor Brian Kemp have only added to the unease among Republicans in a bid to regain momentum 20:58 Trump has brought back advisers from his previous campaigns including Cory lowski his 2016 campaign manager however with 21:05 Harris now leading Trump by 3.7 percentage points in National polls and gaining ground in Battleground States 21:12 the pressure is mounting for Trump to shift his approach Kevin Madden a Republican strategist noted that the 21:17 dominant mood among Republicans is one of frustration as Harris's campaign has been allowed to Coast while Trump's team 21:23 struggles to regain control of the narrative Madden emphasized that the best time to Define Harris was 21:28 immediately after her nomination but that window of opportunity has largely passed despite these concerns some 21:34 within Trump's Camp remain optimistic Trump poster Tony Fabrizio downplayed Harris's momentum suggesting that the 21:40 post-convention bump she's enjoying will not last others like investor and Trump donor Omid Malik argued that Harris 21:47 should be leading by a larger margin if she were truly dominating the race and that the endorsement from figures like 21:52 Kennedy has blunted her momentum however not all Republicans are convinced there are fears that Trump's alliance with 21:58 controversial figures like Kennedy and gabard could backfire costing him support among traditional Republicans 22:04 Independents and Women Voters Eric lav warned that while a big tent is important sometimes the tent is so large 22:10 it gets torn as the lock ticks down to election day the Republican party is at a Crossroads while some remain confident 22:16 that Trump can turn the tide others fear that his Reliance on personal attacks and Fringe alliances may be leading him 22:22 down a path to defeat that brings us to the end of this video for more interesting videos like this click on 22:27 the cards on your screen Trump stunned as own supporters ditch speech halfway 22:32 through when Mexico sends its people they're not sending their best I will 22:38 absolutely take database on the people coming in from Syria the late great 22:44 Hannibal Lector is a wonderful man the late great Hannibal Lector is a wonderful man Donald Trump's Brash style 22:52 of addressing his supporters and anyone who cares to listen has indeed been one of his strongest suits during the course 22:57 of his political IC career however a multitude of the former president's supporters finally had enough of him 23:03 during one of his rallies in Wildwood New Jersey Trump was barely halfway through his speech when videos circulated showing his supporters exiting the venue on mass with the looks of disapproval barely concealed Trump's New Jersey Rally goes south Donald Trump was all about his signature blatant rhetorics and unhinged sentiments during his appearance at the Wildwood New Jersey Rally the former president stood on the podium and continuously lashed out as his supporters gathered however at some point it became unbearable for some Trump supporters and their next 23:35 line of action did not conceal their disappointment the day of Trump's rally was filled with anticipation as the 23:41 tropical Seaside town of Wildwood New Jersey became Lively hours before the 23:46 event the streets were a wash with a sea of supporters many wearing the iconic apparel that has come to symbolize the 23:53 Trump political movement the air was thick with expectation fueled by claims from Trump and his team that the rally 23:59 would draw an excess of 100,000 Patriots local vendors capitalized on the influx 24:05 of trump supporters as they decorated their stalls with merchandise while the sounds of classic American anthems set 24:11 the stage as the beachfront venue reached capacity with estimates suggesting around 20,000 attendees the 24:18 atmosphere was charged it is noteworthy that the actual estimate of 20,000 Trump 24:24 supporters was a prominent contrast to how he initially boasted of an 80,000 to 100,000 capacity supporters exchanged 24:31 stories of their Journeys some having traveled from Far Corners of the country all United by a shared sense of purpose 24:38 and the hope of witnessing a historic speech the excitement reached a peak as the moment of Trump's appearance neared 24:45 with every chant and cheer amplifying the collective energy of the rally as the rally progressed Donald Trump the 24:51 figurehead of the event took Center Stage his speech began with the usual Vigor addressing the multitude of 24:57 supporters who responded with Roars of approval trumps words rang through the 25:03 crowd a mix of political promises and the kind of rhetoric that had become his Hallmark initially the audience hung on 25:09 his every word their reactions ranging from fervent nods to spirited Applause 25:14 however at 6:48 p.m. not even halfway through Trump's discourse a reporter 25:19 with the Philadelphia Inquirer observed a thinning crowd noting that people were walking back to the boardwalk while 25:26 Trump's Voice still carried in the background ground similarly many more reporters gave their input and reported 25:32 a noticeable decrease in the number of attendees one video showcased vast empty spaces where supporters once stood an 25:39 obvious contrast to the packed scene at the beginning of the rally the clip presented a broad view of the beachfront 25:45 venue showing Trump's supporters displaying their lack of interest in his train of thought many briskly walked off 25:51 while the former president's voice boomed in the background the departure of the crowd was gradual but undeniable 25:58 as pockets of the audience began to reduce some left in silence others murmured their reasons but all shared a 26:05 common action they were leaving while the speech was still ongoing leading up to this development Trump took to the 26:11 stage where he Unleashed loads of criticism on the Biden L government while also poking fun at some of his 26:17 Republican counterparts Trump enjoyed the admiration from his supporters and he did not hide his expression of 26:23 Victory he began with a thunderous greeting his voice booming through the speakers then thank you very much 26:29 Wildwood thank you we love Wildwood we've been here many times thank you 26:34 very much Wildwood thank you we love Wildwood we've been here many times the crowd's response was electric a unified 26:41 voice of approval that bounced off the walls of the convention center Flags waved hats were tossed into the air and 26:47 homemade signs bearing slogans of loyalty and Defiance bobbed above the Sea of heads without missing a beat 26:54 Trump launched into the heart of his address wasting no time calling out the current Administration you look at the 27:01 economy the real economy not the fake economy he declared you look at the economy the real economy not the fake 27:07 economy everything they touch turns to what you shouldn't use that L language 27:13 the crowd roared in agreement hanging on to every word As Trump painted a picture of decline under President Biden's 27:19 leadership the former president's words were a mix of unfiltered sarcasm and mockery as he recounted his perceived 27:26 injustices I've come here from New York where I'm being forced to endure a Biden show trial carried out by a radical 27:33 Democrat district attorney you know who he is fat Alvin I've come here from New 27:38 York where I'm being forced to endure a Biden show trial carried out by radical 27:44 Democrat district attorney you know who he 27:49 is fat Alvin has Trump said eliciting a mix of booze and laughter from the 27:55 audience the reference to the district attorney was met with disdain a clear sign of the crowd's solidarity with 28:01 Trump Donald Trump's most bizarre comments at the rally Trump's rhetoric intensified as he talked about Hannibal 28:08 Lecter the fictional serial killer who went from being a forensic psychiatrist to a malevolent murderer who killed and 28:15 ate his victims he often times would have a friend for dinner has anyone ever seen Silence of the Lamb the late great 28:22 Hannibal Lector he's a wonderful man he often times would have a friend for dinner Trump quipped a statement that 28:28 left the crowd momentarily puzzled before they erupted into a mixture of Chuckles and bewildered murmers this was 28:35 in fact a very weird thing to say while convincing his supporters to throw their weights behind him Trump's weird the 28:41 Rally's atmosphere was filled with emotion As Trump shifted Focus to the Supreme Court and its recent decision to 28:47 overturn Ro v Wade he relayed that Hannibal lecor may not be real the six Supreme Court Justices that overturned 28:54 Ro v Wade that he named was real the mention of the Supreme Court Justices 28:59 was met with thunderous Applause a clear indication of the crowd's support for the controversial decision as Trump's 29:06 address progressed he touched on various topics each met with varying degrees of enthusiasm from the crowd from 29:13 immigration to the Second Amendment Trump's words were a rallying cry a call to arms for his supporters to stand with 29:19 him against what he described as the failings of the current Administration the first section of 29:24 Trump's rally at Wildwood was a spectacle of political theater a blend of provocation praise and the 29:31 promise of a return to Greatness Trump turned his attention to National Security a key part of his presidential 29:37 tenure the Republican presidential candidate who has a pension for anti-immigration policies emphasized his 29:43 ideology of securing the American Border against immigrants Trump went as far as brashley stating against migrants they 29:50 are destroying our country this was an exaggerated statement that while shocking resonated with the audience's 29:57 fears and anxi anties about immigration the former president then pivoted to the economy a topic that always struck a 30:03 chord with his followers Trump insinuated that the only part of the economy that appeared to be functioning 30:10 was the stock market because according to him the numbers were rigor the mention of financial woses Drew booze 30:16 and jeers a collective expression of discontent with the current state of affairs through his lengthy speech Trump 30:23 constantly threw verbal Jabs at Biden as he declared to his supporters that it was time for a president who would show 30:29 unyielding strength he relayed that he would launch into action right from the first day of his administration by 30:35 sealing the border and stopping the alleged invasion of people pouring into the United States Trump also attacked 30:42 Biden's economy stating that he worsened inflation in the country by letting energy get out of hand Trump even took 30:49 credit for job creation postco even though Biden was already in power the former president echoed to his 30:55 supporters on day one we will throw throw out bomic and we will reinstate Magan namics on day one we will throw 31:02 out bomic and we will reinstate Magics Magics it however did not take long for 31:09 Trump's unbridled hatred for immigration to rear its ugly head again the New Yorker resumed his harsh comments about 31:16 migrants as he insinuated that over 20 million people came from prisons mental institutions asylums and terrorist camps 31:23 into the country he then implored the people of New Jersey to join him in fighting IM immigration throughout his 31:29 rally at the beachfront Trump continually condemned Biden's government referring to him as a wasteful president 31:35 who lavished funds on scam programs he accused the president of inflating statistics regarding the development of 31:41 different sectors he also subtly mentioned the 2020 elections which he had always classified as rigged Trump 31:48 stated to his admirers that he never used to be so critical about Joe Biden until he was indicted Trump played the 31:54 victim card and accused Biden of indicting him in his current Criminal trial he relayed that the charges 32:00 against him were made up he stated his reason for insinuating that Biden was behind his indictment because the 32:06 government could have brought up his trial years ago but they waited till at time for elections in line with this 32:12 accusation Trump described Biden as the most grossly incompetent man in government the worst president ever of 32:18 any country the most grossly incompetent man in government the worst president 32:24 ever of any country as the rally progressed Trump's remarks became became increasingly personal and direct he 32:30 spoke of perceived slights and betrayals painting himself as a victim of a biased media and a vindictive political 32:37 establishment Trump was going to go off as he egged his supporters on while 32:42 asking them to refuse to be silenced the crowd's reaction was visceral a shared sense of grievance that manifested in 32:49 loud affirmations of support one of the most notable moments came when Trump addressed his critics directly 32:55 referencing a meme that had circulated about him possibly leaving the country if he lost the election Trump's speech 33:01 was punctuated by moments of light-heartedness including a humorous aside about his media portrayal as a 33:07 form of retort he referenced whoopy Goldberg who was the subject of the meme and stated that he wouldn't leave the 33:13 country the meme had poked fun that the veteran actress would leave the country if Trump won whoopy would later comment 33:19 on Trump's words as she fired back that she wasn't leaving the country either look I'm not going anywhere the audience 33:28 laughed appreciating the lighter tone amidst the heavier political discourse as the rally neared its end Trump's 33:35 message took on a tone of defiance and determination we had the greatest economy in the history of our country 33:41 and we're going to do it again we had the greatest economy in the history of our 33:46 country he proclaimed his words a rallying cry for a potential return to power the crowd's response was 33:54 thunderous A Chorus of Hope and expectation for the future with a twinkle in his eye and a mischievous 33:59 smile Trump began recounting a seemingly harmless tale that would soon take on a life of its own he spoke of the Jersey 34:06 Shore the iconic boardwalk and The Simple Pleasures of a summer day by the ocean but then the narrative took a 34:13 malicious turn As Trump known for his knack for capturing the crowd's attention with off-the-cuff remarks 34:20 brought up the name Chris Christie Trump with the timing of a seasoned controversial comedian delivered a line 34:26 that would become the highlight light of the evening for many he spoke of Christie hot dogs and the Jersey Shore 34:32 weaving together a narrative that was at once humorous and pointed Trump's ability to turn a political rally into a 34:38 moment of levity was on full display and the mention of hot dogs a staple of American Cuisine and Boardwalk fair was 34:46 the perfect ingredient to add to the mix some cheered recognizing the name of their former Governor While others 34:52 waited sensing the punchline that was to come does anybody likes Chris Trump 34:58 teased the crowd hanging on his every word and as he anticipated the crowd released thunderous nose the former 35:04 president with the skill of a seasoned rakontur painted a picture of christe that was larger than life he recalled 35:12 seeing his Republican opposition at New Hampshire where according to Trump he was entangled in misconduct and fighting 35:18 the presumptive Republican candidates mention of Chris Christie was nothing short of insulting he asked the crowd if 35:24 they liked Christie and the reply came in a thunderous echo of nose Christy 35:29 earlier ran against Trump in the GOP primaries standing alone as the most prominent anti-trump Republican The 35:36 Mention Of Christie was a way to assert dominance while keeping the crowd entertained it was Trump's way of 35:41 reminding everyone of his place in the political hierarchy of his ability to command the stage and the narrative he 35:47 took further Jabs at the ex-governor of New Jersey as he employed an unhealthy dose of sarcasm Trump continued to throw 35:55 Jabs at christe as he referred to him as a major case of trump derangement syndrome Trump's rhetoric during his New 36:01 Jersey Rally was nothing short of crass but as we all know this is in fact his appalling way of garnering support the 36:09 former president wrote on the waves of this same method in the 2010s when he first contested and won the presidency 36:16 Trump's shocking mode of communication only intensified after he began his tenure often ending up in the news as 36:23 some of the most controversial moments in America's political history this brings to mind a rally of the same kind 36:29 from 2017 when Trump had people clutching their pearls in horror As Trump took the stage he was quick to 36:35 castigate the media labeling them as fake media and accusing them of misrepresenting his words and the truth 36:42 he vehemently defended his initial comments on Charlottesville selectively reiterating his condemnation of hatred 36:49 bigotry and violence while conspicuously omitting his infamous on many sides remark that had sparked a national 36:55 outcry Trump's attack on the media was relentless he accused them of being dishonest of fabricating stories without 37:02 sources and of failing to report his forceful denunciation of hate groups The 37:07 Narrative then took a sharp turn into the past As Trump waited into the contentious debate over Confederate 37:13 statues in the country he positioned himself as a defender of America's past framing the removal of some of these 37:20 monuments as an attack on the nation's Heritage and culture Trump's words painted a picture of a country at risk 37:26 with its very identity under attack by those he claimed did not love America in 37:31 a passionate plea Trump urged his audience to resist those who sought to dismantle memorials that in his view 37:39 stood in the proud tradition of America's great leaders he equated Confederate generals with figures like 37:45 George Washington and Abraham Lincoln a comparison that would stir controversy and further inflame the national 37:51 conversation the former president also stirred a highly controversial Topic at the time as he teased the Poss 37:57 possbility of releasing judee arpeo the scandalous former Maricopa County Sheriff who was convicted of criminal 38:03 charges with Trump's unwavering resolution to return to the Oval Office is America about to witness a renewed 38:10 and more volatile version of his Reign click any of the cards that appear on your screen to see more updates on how 38:16 Trump navigates through his patchy route to the presidential election in late 2024 bye for now the most grossly 38:24 incompetent man in government the worst president ever of any country the whole 38:30 world is laughing at him despite the great anticipation Trump's latest rally that brought over 100,000 supporters 38:36 from around the United States took an unexpected turn when what was supposed to be a crowd of DieHard fans started 38:43 walking out one by one the rally which was held at Wildwood Beach New Jersey quickly went from a sea of support to a 38:49 bunch of empty seats even though Trump was still speaking one thing was however certain the growing number of empty 38:55 chairs meant that Trump had not lived up to the high expectations of the Maga movement Trump supporters leave during 39:01 the middle of speech in Wildwood New Jersey president Trump has set to hold a campaign rally in New Jersey tonight and 39:07 people are already lining up and camping out to make sure they get a spot inside Trump's core supporters who love to go 39:13 by the name Maga meaning make America great again have stayed loyal and vocal even as he faces felony charges in four 39:20 jurisdictions this is so much different from what we saw in 2016 where many Trump voters only quietly supported him 39:26 before the election but this time and over the past 8 years his most dedicated fans have immersed themselves in his 39:33 speeches memorized his catchphrases and attended his numerous rallies it therefore came as no surprise that 39:39 supporters of Donald Trump camped out overnight anticipating his rally in New Jersey which was held on May 11th 2024 39:46 they were hoping for a significant announcement or a rallying speech however many were left disappointed by 39:52 the content of his speech Trump's remarks quickly turn negative with name calling and derogatory com M ments about 39:57 political opponents the rally which took place on the beach in Wildwood New Jersey drew a large crowd with estimates 40:03 ranging from 80,000 to 100,000 attendees some supporters had even slept in tents on the beach for days to secure front 40:10 row sports the event was part of Trump's 20124 presidential campaign and it drew a large enthusiastic audience from 40:17 across the country As Trump took the stage at exactly 6:20 p.m. he launched into one of his typical speeches with a 40:23 lot of curse words for about 90 minutes touting his accomplish ments and criticizing his political opponents 40:30 however when he began attacking President Joe Biden among the many other things he did some attendees appeared 40:36 taken aback Trump referred to Biden as a total and claimed that his administration was damaging the country 40:42 that's not all Trump also went on to blame the current US president for his recent legal troubles recall that Donald 40:48 Trump has been the main character in a series of legal challenges that have captured the Public's attention among 40:53 these the allegations of hush money payments stand out as they question the Integrity of financial records within 40:59 Trump's organization these payments were allegedly made to suppress claims of past sexual relationships during his 41:05 2016 presidential campaign simultaneously Trump is also involved in Trials concerning accusations of 41:12 election interference and the mishandling of classified documents let's not forget the sexual assault case 41:17 of author eege Carrol where the Court ruled in favor of the author resulting in a total of $ 88.3 million in Damages 41:25 awarded to Carol according to Trump Joe Biden should never have encouraged his prosecution as it was something that 41:30 should only be heard of in third world countries but never in the United States of America in his words you don't do 41:37 that to your opponents Donald Trump also went on to give disparaging remarks about Biden's mental intelligence saying 41:42 that the ladder was not even aware of what was going on Trump strongly criticized Biden saying his presidency 41:48 has hurt the country very badly he claimed that even if anyone were to combine the mistakes of the 10 worst 41:53 Presidents in US history they wouldn't come close to the harm Biden has caused the former president also harshly 41:59 attacked Biden's ability to lead and his personal character saying he's not just bad at his job but also a bad person in 42:06 addition to this Trump boasted to the audience that his administration had been responsible for what he described 42:12 as the greatest economy the United States of America had ever seen he then assured them that New Jersey being the 42:18 venue of the rally would see significant benefits if he were to return to office as a warning Trump claimed that if Joe 42:25 Biden were to win the election would result in a loss for the entire middle class and for New Jersey however he 42:32 promised that a win for him would mean a win for the middle class an upliftment for the lowincome groups and A Renewed 42:38 pursuit of the American dream for everyone on a personal note to his supporters in the state he pledged that 42:43 a victory for him would not only be a win for New Jersey but also for Pennsylvania and the whole of America 42:50 also during the rally Trump brought up Biden's recent interview with CNN where he talked about how the US will no 42:55 longer Supply weapons to Israel if prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu decides to press forward with a ground offensive on 43:02 the city of Rafa where more than 1.2 million people are taking Refuge it's just wrong we're not going to we're not 43:08 going to supply the weapons and the artillery shells used that have been used shells as well yeah artillery 43:15 shells the current president went on to disclose that although the US remained committed to providing Israel with 43:20 defensive weapons they will not be supporting the invasion of Rafa according to Trump this decision only 43:26 meant meant that Biden was siding with Hamas however the response Trump got from the crowd was not what he expected 43:33 as they booed loudly aside from the verbal attack on Biden another thing Donald Trump is well known for is his 43:39 usual false statements and exaggerations and just as expected he let one or two out at his Wildwood rally however his 43:46 loose and spontaneous style was on another level on this particular day as he made a series of unusual comments and 43:52 gaffs just minutes into the rally Trump began talking about a hot dog he ate recently 43:57 hot dogs let's talk about hot dogs I just had one actually I just had one it was very good he then proceeded to share Snippets of some conversations he 44:04 claimed to have had with renowned singers Frank Sinatra and luano Pavarotti regarding food according to 44:10 Trump Sinatra had advised him years ago to never eat before performing Trump reportedly responded that he wasn't 44:16 performing but rather a politician expressing his disdain for being called a politician while these statements 44:22 would have been passed off as just Trump going off point the audience couldn't help but note that Sinatra passed away 44:28 in 1998 which was well before Trump's political career began in addition to 44:33 this the former president also mixed up names of various people and places and even expressed his fondness for the 44:39 fictional serial killer protagonist from the movie The Silence of the Lambs Hannibal Lecter the late great Hannibal 44:46 Lecter he's a wonderful man Trump said he continued by praising this character before suddenly shifting topics to 44:52 immigration claiming that people who shouldn't be in the country were being released into it at another point he 44:57 seemed to confuse Beijing with Taiwan he talked about President XI of China and mentioned military activities including 45:04 ships and planes as if they were related to Beijing this confusion overlooked the fact that Taiwan is the self-governing 45:11 island China aims to reunify with the mainland additionally Trump made an error by referring to former President 45:17 Jimmy Carter as Jimmy Connors further highlighting the series of gaffs throughout his speech this was not the 45:23 first time Trump would be mixing up the names of world leaders the same thing happened late last year when he mixed up 45:28 President Biden former president Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton despite this Trump insisted that these were not 45:35 mistakes and that his comments were intentional after the Jimmy Carter blunder he started talking about the 45:40 upcoming election but he still managed to Circle back to the topic of Sinatra and hot dogs he again mentioned that he 45:46 had recently enjoyed a delicious hot dog and apologized to Frank at the time the conversation happened and about pavara 45:53 Trump stated that the latter was a good friend who didn't have the same concerns as he ate all the time and didn't care 45:59 this was again another off the rail statement recently Trump has made some big blunders while campaigning which has 46:05 led to talks about the mental abilities of the candidates in this election at the same time this election is unusual because the candidates are older than usual these situations suggest there might be a long argument about how sharp Donald Trump in particular is the top job in the country for instance during a particular incident on January 20th 2024 Trump consistently confused Nick Nikki Haley with former house Speaker Nancy Pelosi he also implied that Haley bore responsibility for security Arrangements during the January 6th Capital Riot also at another campaign rally just 2 Days Later Trump faced new challenges when he tried to express his support for imposing the death penalty on drug dealers he initially struggled with pronouncing smallest and later stated we are an Institute in a powerful death penalty we will put this on despite the initial anticipation the attendees to the extent of camping out overnight for the rally it didn't take long before they got tired and bored with what Trump 47:03 was saying in fact a video filmed during the rally and uploaded on X formerly Twitter by Walter Masterson shows thousands of people leaving while the former president was still talking according to reports someone at the rally who noticed what was happening had to inform Trump that the time was only 6:48 p.m. and that a significant number of attendees were already leaving even before Trump had reached the middle of his 90-minute address in another post Masterson wrote you can clearly see that people are leaving while he's rambling incoherently this happens at a lot of rallies cultists show up thinking he will say something new and profound then they get bored and walk out Wildwood's Republican mayor Ernie troano Jr had earlier expressed some skepticism about the expected turnout for Donald Trump's recent rally he stated that the beach venue could accommodate approximately 20,000 people and around that many tickets had been requested however Trump's supporters were confident that the event would draw a much larger crowd as it turned out the rally did attract a 48:02 significant number of attendees with Trump's spokesperson Steven Chung claiming that over 100,000 Patriots had shown up to hear the former president speak while the exact number of attendees remains uncertain many of Trump's allies were quick to boast about the large turnout seeing it as a clear indication of his enduring popularity and a sign that he would decisively beat President Joe Biden in the upcoming November election in addition to this Republican representative Marjorie Taylor Green from Georgia also reportedly posted on X that the American people are energized and ready to reelect president Trump in November her statement reflects the optimism and enthusiasm that many Trump supporters feel about his chances in the next election another reporter Aaliyah Schneider the Philadelphia Inquirer also observed that the crowd was thinning and noted that many were walking out back to the boardwalk while Trump continued speaking in a subsequent post she highlighted the noticeably smaller back section of the crowd further evidence that attendees were growing restless and 49:03 departing in significant numbers USA Today reporter Zack Anderson also documented the crowd's departure posting a video that showed a significant portion of the audience had already left while Trump was still speaking Anderson noted that the area had been full of people when Trump first took the stage but shortly after the crowd had dwindled significantly likely due to the cold weather and lengthy unrelated speech nevertheless Trump's Ardent supporters Maga were quick to point out the fact that Trump's rally was so much better when compared with President Biden's activities they noted that while Trump drew a large crowd Biden spent the weekend at his Delaware Beach House following a fundraising event in Seattle the comparison between the two leaders engagements became a point of discussion with Trump's supporters still defending their dedication to camping out at the same time critics still pointed out and praised Biden's more low-key approach ALS so while it is easy to isolate a gaff or two and not read much meaning to 50:00 it questions about Trump's age and cognitive abilities have been raised after his several blunders on the campaign Trail such as mixing up world leaders and confusing his one-time Presidential nominee rival Nikki Haley with former house Speaker Nancy Pelosi however back in 2020 president Donald Trump addressed concerns about his mental Fitness for office boasting about his performance on a cognitive assessment exam he claimed that the doctor's admin during the test were impressed by his exceptional ability to remember a simple sequence of words and in his usual characteristic statements Trump also reiterated his unsubstantiated claims that then former Vice President Joe Biden seemed to be experiencing significant cognitive decline he therefore made a demand that Biden should also undergo a similar examination note however that this claim was made without any evidence to support it once again in January 2024 Donald Trump declared that his mental abil abilities have improved over the past 20 years and as a result he asked his 51:01 former White House doctor Ronnie Jackson for a cognitive test according to Trump Jackson had described the test as challenging but he aced it nonetheless however Trump didn't miss the opportunity to take a swipe at President Joe Biden saying he was sure the president would struggle to answer even the third question he also went on with a jab that Biden lacked the competence to manage a simple task like running a lemonade stand at 77 years old Trump along with Biden who is 81 are the oldest candidates to run for the US Presidency and just like Trump Biden has also faced scrutiny for apparent instances of misspeaking and making errors on various occasions what do you think about how Trump's own fans left the much anticipated rally let us know your thoughts in the comments for more captivating videos like this one click on one of the cards
