The Harris Campaign Is Brutally Trolling Trump On His Own Social Media Site—And It's Perfect

The Kamala Harris campaign is hitting Donald Trump where it hurts, posting side-by-side crowd size photos comparing Trump and Harris rallies to his own Truth Social site.

Former Republican President Donald Trump has been obsessed with crowd size since he first began campaigning for the 2016 election.

He's so triggered by his failure to draw the crowds of his predecessors and rivals that the phrase "alternative facts" was coined by a member of his administration to explain the many lies about the small crowds that attended his inauguration in comparison to those who showed up for Democratic President Barack Obama.


Now the Harris 2024 campaign account "Kamala HQ" is poking that sore spot after Trump posted a claim the media ignores his "100,000" person rallies.

And they're doing it on Truth Social, which is basically Trump's own social media site.

Trump first posted on his Truth Social platform Thursday morning:

"If Kamala has 1,000 people at a Rally, the Press goes 'crazy', and talks about how 'big' it was - And she pays for her 'Crowd'. When I have a Rally, and 100,000 people show up, the Fake News doesn’t talk about it, THEY REFUSE TO MENTION CROWD SIZE. The Fake News is the Enemy of the People!"

Former Trump administration member Stephanie Grisham called Trump's response proof he's panicking.

Choosing their own response, Kamala HQ posted photos of rallies held in the same arena—by Trump in late June and then by Harris this week—in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The post included Trump's own boastful post.

The Kamala HQ account also tagged Trump in their Truth Social caption:

"Same arena in Philly, @realDonaldTrump"

The upper decks—even near the stage—are empty at Trump's rally, but full at Harris's.

According to the Daily Pennsylvanian, Trump drew just 4,000 people to his MAGA rally at Temple University's Liacouras Center in June. Harris drew an overflowing crowd Tuesday, filling the 10,000 seats of the Liacouras Center and the overflow room at nearby McGonigle Hall with an estimated total of 14,000 people per the Maine Morning Star.

Kamala HQ also shared their post on X and Threads captioned:

"Harris rally vs. Trump rally"
"Same arena in Philly"

And reposted it captioned:

"Yes, we posted this on Truth Social"

They also compared recent Michigan rally crowd sizes...

Trump seems to have good reason to panic.

A Reuters/Ipsos national poll published on Thursday showed Trump trailing Vice President Kamala Harris by five percentage points.

During his hastily called invitation-only press conference at Mar-a-Lago on Thursday, Trump lied when asked if he was "worried at all by the size of Harris' crowds. Trump claimed the press—and apparently photos and videos—are "dishonest" because his rallies were "10 times, 20 times, 30 times" bigger.

He later exaggerated even further by saying his January 6, 2021 rally—which incited the subsequent violent attack on the United States Capitol—exceeded the crowd at the August 28, 1963 civil rights March On Washington when Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. gave his I Have A Dream speech.

Trump told his hand-selected press conference attendees:

"In history, for any country, nobody's had crowds like I have. If you look at Martin Luther King when he did his great speech… and you look at the picture of his crowd, my crowd—we actually had more people."

The press didn't question Trump's ridiculous claim.

The March On Washington was attended by an estimated 250,000 people. An estimated 10,000 people attended Trump's Stop The Steal rally on January 6.

Tim Walz Has Epic Clapback After Nancy Mace Asks Him To Define 'Woman' During Congressional Hearing

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz had a splendid response after South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace attempted to claim that his support for transgender women would bar him from recognizing fraud in his state.

Walz's appearance at the hearing comes amid conservative claims—offered with little supporting evidence—that Somali-run childcare centers in Minnesota improperly received public funds intended to support childcare for low-income families. Subsequently, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the FBI expanded their presence in Minnesota as federal authorities froze childcare funding statewide.

Elmo Just Asked His Followers 'Where Have You Been?'—And Zohran Mamdani Had The Purest Response

Elmo, the furry red childlike monster from Sesame Street designed by Caroly Wilcox, began his life as a generic "baby monster" background filler in the 1979-1980 season of the long-running children's television program.

Originally having a gruff voice supplied by various puppeteers, Elmo found his falsetto-voiced, loving persona when Kevin Clash took over in 1985. Elmo was transformed into a three-and-a-half-year-old character designed to connect with the show's audience of preschoolers.
