It is never a surprise when Donald Trump lies, even to his frighteningly loyal voters. They have bought into his bragging and untruths even when evidence that contradicts him is right in front of them since Trump first began his birtherism tours years ago. The scene at a Trump rally in Ohio, where he endorsed Ohio Senate candidate J.D. Vance, was no exception.

The twice-impeached ex-president who lost the popular vote twice and tried to stage a coup took the stage on Saturday night during an Ohio State football game and touted his endorsement record (even when his endorsed candidates win their primaries, which is no longer guaranteed, they aren’t doing well in polls for the general election) and told rally attendees that the candidates he supports would be nothing without him. And the crowd cheered and promised to vote for those candidates despite the slur.
Even funnier, Trump bragged on his Truth Social account that the rally was sold out with a massive crowd, while pictures showed swaths of empty seats in a stadium that only holds around 7,000 people.
According to The Daily Mail:
‘The Pennsylvania Rally was a massive success, ‘packed’ with great American Patriots, and the Ohio Rally, tonight, is a likewise sold out juggernaut – Look at the massive crowds.’He added, ‘Both candidates wanted this and I, as usual, delivered. ALL Republican candidates want Rallies. Without the Rallies and, even more importantly, the Endorsements, most would lose. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!’
His supporters will buy it, just as those at the rally who could see the empty sections of seats did. Yet everyone who knows Trump is a liar can see those seats and laughing about Trump’s ridiculous lies and waning popularity.
Twitter could certainly spot the lie. Read some of their comments below:
