Crowd?
WHo cares? I don't think Billery if she had won would have come close to Obama's crowd. A fairer comparison if you care, would be Bill Clinton or Bush II, just another old white guy. Hillary, if she won might have had a slight bump, being the 1st woman, but if she had won it would have been by the narrowest margin and doubt it would have exceeded Obama's, who won both the popular and electoral vote by a wide margin. He also had much better weather, which always effects turnout.
What is very disturbing is that he CARES.
When I was growing up and we learned about WW2 I could never understand how Germany could have allowed Hitler to wreck the havoc he did. I now understand, "alternative facts"?, it is called propaganda! They didn't have the internet back then to get multiple images out before they could be squashed. It was easier to get only the "official" version back then, today we have no such excuse.
The scary part is not how many did or did not turn out, but that it matters enough to him to make an issue when the images are fairly plain to see. I think he does believe it which makes it so much more sad. He claimed the rain stopped, when it was clear to see it dripping off his coat while he was speaking, Does it really matter if it rained or not? NO but it does matter if we can trust what he is saying. To violate trust on something so meaningless as the weather is mind boggling.
