Pro-Trump Rally Ridiculed After Bad Turnout
Only a few hundred people showed up for the "Mother Of All Rallies" on the National Mall in D.C.
WASHINGTON, DC – It was dubbed the "Mother Of All Rallies," but considering the turnout, perhaps a better name would have been "The 5th Cousin Twice Removed Of All Rallies."
Just a few hundred people showed up for what had been envisioned as a massive rally in support of President Trump. And as a result, left-leaning users on Twitter had a field day, comparing pictures of the rally unfavorably with those of the massive 500,000-strong Women's March on Washington on Jan. 21, and even the climate science rally in April that drew 200,000.
There was also a Juggalos March on the National Mall featuring followers of the Insane Clown Posse, a band known for its makeup and an infamous video featuring magnets. The group says they have been unfairly targeted by the federal government as a gang.
