[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It probably attracted far fewer people than the 250,000 the White House claimed. In fact, the optics were simply embarrassing. As the Washington Post noted, https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2025/06/14/trump-parade-birthday-army-anniversary/?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email Some in the crowd filed out as the parade continued, the number of onlookers thinning before the president gave his remarks. Even bleacher seating for VIP guests, positioned directly across from a riser for news cameras, remained half-empty throughout the program.[/quote] Probably? There would have been more people on the mall on a random Saturday than were there for the parade. Swaths of open green, empty bleachers and mostly 1 or zero deep viewers along the parade route. Sad.[/quote]
