Trump and his crowds are larger than the left wants you to know or will admit!!

Look at the stock market - people who don't normally dabble in stocks will jump in during bull markets simply because they want to join the party and don't want to feel left out!

During market panics, the same people won't go near stocks!

Same phenomenon. A buzz feeds on itself.

There are plenty of studies out there. If you want proof, look them up.

Crowd size has never been an indicator of voter turnout. In fact it’s generally a counter indicator. It makes sense, but only if you think it all the way through. You draw crowds in the thousands, but you draw voters in the millions. Rally crowds only represent the small fraction of your voters who are the most die-hard enthusiastic. So crowd size is an indicator of how fanatical your biggest fans are. Larger crowds suggest that you’re running the kind of campaign that’s hugely appealing to a narrower segment of people, not broadly appealing to a larger segment of people.

Hahahahaha.... moleboy obviously doesn't know how to "think it all the way through".

The empirical data from numerous campaigns over many years would show crowd size and enthusiasm is positively correlated to broader support, not negatively correlated. To cite just one more example - Truman's big rallies in the final week of the 1948 campaign were a harbinger of his upset win over Dewey.

It's remarkable to me how some people can let trump hatred overwhelm common sense, logic and empirical evidence.
