Donald Trump accused Kamala Harris of lying about the size of her crowd of supporters and all our irony meters exploded
On Wednesday, the Democratic team of Kamala Harris and Tim Walz addressed a huge crowd at the Detroit Metro Airport, as they delivered their campaign message.

The size of the crowd obviously triggered a reaction in Donald Trump, as this future Trump classic rant went up on his Truth Social account.
All nonsense, clearly. Trump had simply chosen to spread a conspiracy theory started by his followers, and the Kamala HQ official campaign account wasn’t having any of it.
1) This is an actual photo of a 15,000-person crowd for Harris-Walz in Michigan
2) Trump has still not campaigned in a swing state in over a week… Low energy? pic.twitter.com/VgTfoMAcuk

There’s a lot of video footage – from different angles. Here’s one.
Lying Trump and other MAGA conspiracy theorists are claiming a photo of the crowd in front of Kamala Harris’ Air Force Two is “fake” and “there was nobody there”. The crowd was real, here’s a video. pic.twitter.com/2EMDBrYRfb

It’s not exactly out of character, but it still raised some eyebrows.

Trump has always been an idiot but now he has gone completely off his rocker. Spreading lies which are beyond absurd and that everyone can see are false. pic.twitter.com/kmeAJM5Mi7 pic.twitter.com/rcqqnnsjkj

The public has a right to know that the Republican Party’s nominee for president of the United States has completely lost touch with reality.

BREAKING: Donald Trump interrupted a wedding ceremony at Mar-a-Lago today and ranted for 29 minutes about how Kamala Harris’s crowds are actually a mix of holograms, green screens, mirrors, mannequins, robots with masks, paid illegal immigrants, and cardboard cutouts.

This seems all too likely.
As we get closer to November, assuming Harris’ trajectory continues to trend upward, Trump will increasingly say she is “cheating” about whatever he can to soften the ground for when he says the election was stolen and shouldn’t be certified. https://t.co/KqRKmw5nEC

The sharing of many, many faked images was only one reason people were getting itony alerts. There’s also this.
You can’t blame Trump for being sensitive about the huge crowd that showed up at the airport for Harris, given the fact that he has to always wave to imaginary people he wishes would show up. pic.twitter.com/ZbdUtYaTGJ
