Does (Crowd) Size Matter?

Chameleon Harris had a rally the other day in North Carolina that the most enthusiastic reports indicate didn’t crack three hundred in attendance – even if you include staff and media.

One outlet’s report referred to “about 250 people” crediting Harris staff for providing that number. Not that they’d be incentivized to enhance that total, sort of like ballot counters in Democratic precincts.

Breitbart.com headlined about the Harris event drawing a “mere 250” after opponent Donald Trump had gotten thousands to turn out for a similar recent rally he held in the same state.

The website independentsentinel.com ran a story putting the Harris North Carolina attendance at a reported 109.

Meanwhile, over the weekend, Trump packed thousands into a Wilkes-Barre area arena in eastern Pennsylvania, with many (likely more than 109) being turned away.

Pardon me for thinking I’ve seen this act before.

Recall campaigning Clueless Joe Biden hiding in his basement in 2020, and emerging infrequently to crowds that numbered in the 10s for his public utterances. Meanwhile, Trump drew tens of thousands to events.

Somehow, despite all this anecdotal evidence regarding enthusiasm and popularity, when the voting totals were released, Clueless Joe had set a record with more than 81 million votes in the 2020 election.

Chameleon Harris is running the same playbook. Lamestream media is providing cover for the Chameleon on these attendance matters, constantly referring to her huge turnouts and neglecting that some of those numbers just might have been goosed by having her rallies held in coordination with concerts by popular singers and the like.

It is undeniable that Harris appearances are outdrawing those of Biden, which were more intimate gatherings than crowds. With Chameleon about to spend a week in the spotlight of the Democratic Convention, before a guaranteed audience, crowd propagandists will take a well-deserved hiatus from their work of sowing misinformation.

But they will be back afterward, with their lapdog members of the Lamestream media at their side to back up inflated crowd numbers and dare any of the usual suspects to fact check them.

‘Tis time for a musical interlude, to be sung to the tune of Santa Claus Is Coming To Town.

You better turn out,

At least you should try,

We’re making a count,

And yes, we will lie,

Democrats are coming to town.

We’re counting the crowd,

Inflating at least twice,

If you’re not there,

Then we’ll count you thrice,

Democrats are coming to town.

We count you if home sleeping,

Or boating on a lake,

We care not if you’re bad or good,

We just count you for our sake.

You better turn out,

At least you should try,

We’re making a count,

And yes, we will lie,

Democrats are coming to town.
