Shrinking Audiences for Trump

Trump support is shrinking.

 The Nation’s Joan Walsh: A Shrinking Trump Mocks His Accusers to Shrinking Crowds

At a recent Trump rally the crowd was far below capacity, around 4000, at a venue where Obama attracted about 10,000 days before.

To preserve the horse-race narrative, MSM avoids reporting this trend. Coverage continues to feature the dwindling number of Trump supporters and surrogates.

Here’s Walsh:

The White Oak Amphitheatre, which President Obama packed to excess of its 7,700 person limit Tuesday night, leaving another 1,500 supporters stranded outside, wasn’t even half full on Friday. A listless crowd occasionally chanted “Trump, Trump, Trump,” but it never got momentum….

etc….

About a half-hour behind schedule …. The embattled GOP nominee seemed to notice the smallish crowd. “Lots of room!” he remarked, as though that’s a good thing at a political rally. But he plowed ahead ...

more:

 It was a strange crowd. A protester wearing a black watch cap was put in a headlock by a Trump supporter, an African-American man waving a rainbow flag and wearing a “Gays for Trump” T-shirt. ...

and again, Joan Walsh reports that she 

… walked out with a Trump supporter ... who’d driven over an hour to see her candidate. She was, like me, shocked at what a small crowd turned out. 

My bold, Just FWIW.
