How big was the crowd at Trump's 2nd rally in Butler PA?

I’m sure it was the most bigly huuuge crowd in history, right?

Has there been any commentary on this at all?
And is the crowd size relevant now, or are we all too jaded to care any more?

Big enough:

Largest Rally in PA History, 2nd Largest in U.S History - Trump/Elon Butler Rally (youtube.com)

Well, right-wing Xwitter says that the crowd was massive, and this citesays that tens of thousands were there.

I wonder how many showed up to see if he’d be shot at again…

Tens of thousands! I had no idea so many people worked for the Secret Service.

Does this mean we have to stop teasing him about crowd sizes?

They lined for blocks to see Jumbo the Elephant too.

People like to see freaks.

And they made a public spectacle of executing him. :grinning:

It was big! But I question that it was the second biggest in US history. I went to an Obama rally bigger than that in 2008 and I can’t believe it was the biggest in history. Where did that stat come from?

I wondered too , how many people could’ve attended?

The venue, the Butler farm Show is about 100 acres next to a blacktop landing strip. It’s mainly an agricultural event area hosting 4 H type stuff. The landing strip. Maybe a good spot to land for emergency ambulance services

Anyway how many thousands can the place hold? Not that many mi guess.

According to the Pittsburgh CBS affiliate:

Approximately 24,000 people returned to the Butler Farm Show grounds on Saturday, nearly three months after the assassination attempt on Trump’s life, according to the Secret Service.

Normally, I am skeptical of crowd estimates where attendees did not pay to get in. But if the Secret Service counted people as they were being screened coming into the event, they should know.

Last year, Taylor Swift drew 73,117 in Pittsburgh.

Re claim this was the largest campaign rally in Pennsylvania history, it was not:

New York Times, April 2008 - “Senator Barack Obama speaks to an estimated 35,000 people in Philadelphia”

Not even close… 24,000? When I saw Barack Obama in Denver in 2008 there were over 100,000 people there. The chief of police estimate was 150,000.

It was nothing compared to when the pope came to Denver, but I was impressed. 24,000 is pretty farm league in my opinion. Hell, I heard Kamala pulled 25,000 in somewhere in North Carolina a couple weeks ago.
