A Comparison Of Trump And Harris Crowds

The now famous exchange at the debate about crowds and crowd sizes that set Trump off and ended with the ex-president repeating the lie about immigrants eating pets raised the perfect opportunity to compare the reactions that each candidate gets at their events.

Both candidates had events on Thursday. Kamala Harris was in Greensboro, NC and Donald Trump was in Tuscon, AZ.

I took a video of each candidate's introduction and placed it side by side. What I found explains a lot about the state of the election.

Here is the video:

First up is Vice President Harris. As you can see and hear, Harris's rallies have the feel of a concert. I have promoted concerts and have also been to many concerts, and the ovation that Kamala Harris received reminds me of something that I have only heard accounts of and seen on video.

The ovation Harris got in Greensboro reminded me of watching Taylor Swift's reaction when she takes the stage.

It is something more than love. It’s a bond. It is belief, support, and almost like they are willing Harris on. It is intense.

The cheering and screaming continued for two and a half solid minutes in Greensboro. They probably would have kept going if VP Harris didn’t get everybody down to business.

Donald Trump’s Crowd In Arizona

In contrast, Trump’s crowd was different. The crowd was not intense, but they certainly did love the ex-president. There was no loud screaming and cheering. In fact for much of the Trump introduction, that crowd was drowned out by Lee Greenwood’s blight on music known as Proud To Be An American.
