Trump's crowd size is just a flaccid version of its former self, as exposed in new video (video) [1]

For an insecure alpha male obsessed with size, Donald Trump must feel shafted after the extreme shrinkage of his latest crowd was exposed.

Speaking in a gymnasium at a rally in Saginaw, Michigan yesterday, his MAGA mob was strategically packed into about a third of the room, and could make for a bulging visual if photographed from just the right angle.

But video caught the true nature of his crowd size, which has shriveled to just a flaccid version of its former self. Check out the three videos below, including one that shows just a trickle of folks entering the venue, reportedly just an hour before Trump was scheduled to arrive. He can pump his accordion hands all he wants, but once a crowd loses this much juice, there's no going back. (See Trump footage below, posted by Taylor Popielarz.)
