President Trump’s crowd-size estimates: Increasingly unbelievable

“We went to Mississippi, we went to Missouri, we went to Nevada, we went to — every place, and we have crowds, we have tens of thousands of people outside of every arena. They have to start building larger arenas in this country, right? Something is happening.”

— President Trump, at a campaign rally in Lebanon, Ohio, Oct. 12, 2018

“The crowds at my Rallies are far bigger than they have ever been before, including the 2016 election. Never an empty seat in these large venues, many thousands of people watching screens outside. Enthusiasm & Spirit is through the roof. SOMETHING BIG IS HAPPENING – WATCH!”

— Trump, in a tweet, Oct. 15, 2018

“There have never been crowds like this, just so you understand, in the history of politics. You’ve never had crowds like this for midterm elections. There’s never been crowds like this.”

— Trump, at a campaign rally in Macon, Ga., Nov. 4, 2018
