Trump estimated that the crowds at his inauguration were between 1,000,000 and 1,500,000 - in an area that holds a maximum of 720,000.

What do you think, looking at the picture in the report?

It is not about crowd numbers as such but the reporting of the numbers based upon photographs taken at the time. No-one cares about the colour of Trump's tie but if photos show it is red and his team insists it is blue and everyone else is a liar, questions would be asked.

Not much because I don't care how many were there.

Err...okay -Talbot-.

Thanks for your input.
His ego is too big to be able to admit to himself that more people turned up for Obama.
Has this story really got to you that much that you felt the need to start a thread about it?

When I saw this earlier my reaction was ... meh!

Well, it looks pretty plain to me, and Obama did get a bigger attendance.

But that is not the whole story though is it ?

Half a million people marched on Washington that day, protesting about Trump, and many, many, more did the same all over the world were protesting on that day....how many people were protesting about Obama 8 years ago ?
Maybe people stayed away from fear of violent protest, or even shootings / assassination scares?
The more I see and hear of Trump the more I think that the man is unstable.
The top photo in the Independent link is supposed to show be the crowds that gathered at Obama's inauguration.
AOG. Did you notice the photographs were taken from different angles ?

AOG

But the photos are saying the same story.

The photo printed in the Independent is taken at a much higher angle, which shows the sparseness of the crowds at the back.

However, the photo from the New York Times is much shallower. Therefore, it doesn't show how thin the crowd was at the middle and rear.
The photos are credited as from Reuters.

The man is a fantasist and a liar.
unusually, i find myself agreeing with talbot - who cares? How mny people truly think america is the most important country in the world anymore? Or that POTUS is the most influential person n the world?

-Talbot-

I think the reason this story is important, is because it shows how easily hurt the Leader of the Free World is.

He's a man who sends tweets out at 02:30 criticising Saturday Night Live when they take the mickey out of him.

He's the President of the United States, but seems to have the sensibilities of a sorority princess.
Dougie....you have said it all but I would have included "childish" as well !

It is obvious that there would be more blacks attending Obama's inauguration.

/// Half a million people marched on Washington that day, protesting about Trump, and many, many, more did the same all over the world were protesting on that day....how many people were protesting about Obama 8 years ago ? ///

Which highlights the Leftie mind set, if you don't get your way, riot and protest on the streets.

Are you in favour of smashing windows and setting alight cars mikey?

yawn, who cares, hilary lost, get over it.
