President Donald Trump boasted his inauguration would have an "unbelievable, perhaps record-setting turnout." But aerial shots of the National Mall from President Barack Obama’s 2009 inauguration and today show that isn’t likely. Here’s an image taken at about 11:30 AM ET in 2009:

Only saw 5-6 black people there and they were on stage.

First black president who was a democrat in a majority black city that is majority Democrat. Hmmmmm, I just can't figure out why I'm surprised.

DC being 99.9% democrat may have something to do with this.

I'm pretty sure all that white is the KKK that attended. Quit misrepresenting how many people were there.

So how much vacation time was used for Obamas inauguration?

I'll leave this one alone at risk of being banned.

I saw it live, that Trump photo is inaccurate IMO. Still may not have had as many regardless but it looked like more than that on tv

Don't have to like a person to vote for them. I didn't like Hilary still voted for her. I know plenty of people who took off, a flew up to D.C. for the inauguration last time. But ya know Trump supporters probably couldn't afford that

Notice the difference in news trucks too in the bottom left of each photo

That still shot was an hour before. It filled up more than that. Still not 2009 crowded but still. It's starting already folks.

To be fair, 246k people in Washington DC voted for Obama in 2008 compared to 13k for Trump in 2016.
