Despite all the hype from the Left, sometimes a picture really can say more.
Doug Ross has two photo posts up that tell the whole story.
Animated gif showing the comparison from the Beck rally and the one held yesterday by progressives and the other post shows "15 Photos From the #OneNation Rally You'll Never See In Legacy Media."
Go see for yourself.
AP on yesterday's progressive rally:
There were people with union T-shirts and others participants who carried banners advocating expanding Medicare for all Americans. While the Beck rally stretched well down the National Mall, Saturday's event was shaping up to be far smaller, with sparse groups lingering around the reflecting pool and other monuments.
The Politico:
Organizers said they were expecting more than 100,000 to attend the rally. Thousands of people packed the area around the steps of the Lincoln Memorial, but based on an unscientific estimate there were significantly fewer people than when Fox News’ Glenn Beck hosted the conservative “Restoring Honor” rally there Aug. 28. At that rally, attendees were forced to stand shoulder to shoulder the entire length of the Reflecting Pool.
All that despite all the organizations and people being bussed in for attendance. No doubt the crowd was huge just as it was with Beck's rally just not as huge , and it was organized, not grass roots.
Guess that enthusiasm gap really does exist and it is bigger than anyone imagined.
