If you think that image on the right is the peak crowd then you either have not seen the CNN gigapixel shot that clearly shows something different while Trump is speaking, or you are intentionally being a retard.

They must defend any slight against Trump.

It's insane.

They're in the weeds from jump street. That press briefing was one of the oddest things I've ever seen.

They're very insecure about this crowd stuff.

Here's my first image:

Seriously? I mean, you're really arguing that there's a substantial enough difference as to "discredit" the picture?

Trump's team is acting as if the press made up, whole cloth, this idea that Trump's inauguration drew like half of what the "real" turnout was. And yet the best you can come up with from the cherry picked moment you take from the time lapse showing what you perceive to be the biggest crowd of the event shows what? Maybe a couple thousand person difference?

It's like his supporters cling to this for no reason beyond it's Trump's current temper tantrum talking point. For god's sake man, it's right in front of you.

At 39 seconds, it is a little bit larger, but not that much larger to give any fricks about.

This is ridiculous.

Again, I'm happy to be corrected. Show me where, in the video of the time lapse of the entire event, the crowd gets substantially bigger than that photo on the right.

You can argue the "gigapixel" photo all you want. But it's from a low angle from the front of the crowd. It masks the depth of the crowd. An overhead shot, by virtue of it's vantage point, cannot. Unless there are invisible people somewhere in that video, you guys are flatly wrong.

This is literal insanity

New CTR liberal media buzz words:

"Alternative facts"
"propaganda campaign"
"war with press"

I know what the definition of "fact" is and I know what the definition of "alternative fact" is and I know just claiming something is a "fact" doesn't make it a "fact" when in reality it is a half-truth which is a whole lie.

Where did claims come into it?

As I said, you obviously don't know the definition of "fact."

Alternate facts are just facts that are different from the facts someone else presented.

But a simple "fact" is true; if it's not true then it's not a fact, and not an alternative. There isn't an alternative truth, so they were either providing a fact or not.

Look at all the things Trump has done since Fri, and what are the low IQ talking about. Numbers. Because that's what Trump wants them to talk about

Theyre so petty, and Trump knows this. Look at the CNN prez threatening Trump with global influence. Hes toying with them, while pulling back 75% of business regs


Hole. E. shite. I don;t think you could have fricked that up more incorrectly if you'd written it in Latin.

Trump wants to talk about numbers. as does this idiot board. Who Brought up how small Hillary rallies "were" compared to The Orange Sharts?

Who always talks about how bad he beat his opponents?
These jobs he "Brought back "?
His Cabinet's IQ?

Small Orange Hands is trying to compensate something fierce.

Sad

Yes.

Only take your news directly from those in power. Don't worry about having any sort of medium to filter their message which is, obviously, the truth. Trust them implicitly.

Perfect.
