In what was perhaps the greatest political rally in the history of the United States in terms of size, former President Donald Trump drew an insane audience.
Media estimates had the crowd at his rally in Wildwood, NJ at between 80,000 – 100,000.
“There’s so many people here,” the former president said on the stage. “Man, over 100,000 people!”
“You can’t even see the end. I wish we didn’t have the press here … because they can’t see in the back,” he said. “You know, I always tell the press, ‘Turn your cameras around to show the audience.’ They never do it. Look, fake news.”
“As you can see today, we’re expanding the electoral map because … we’re going to win the state of New Jersey,” he said. “I think we’re going to win them all. All across America, millions of people, so-called blue states, are joining our movement based on love, intelligence, and a thing called common sense.”
The former president spoke about a myriad of issues at the rally.

“As you know, I’ve come here from New York, where I’m being forced to endure a Biden show trial — all done by Biden,” he said.
“All of this persecution is only happening because I’m running for president. If I wasn’t leading in the polls by a lot and running for president, they wouldn’t be after me. I’d have a nice place. I’d be down in Palm Beach. I’d be traveling the world,” he said.
He went on to attack President Biden’s foreign policy as it pertains to Israel.
“He has truly set the world on fire,” the former president said. “This week, he announced that he will withhold shipping weapons to Israel as they fight to eradicate Hamas terrorists in Gaza. That was shocking to hear it, even as there are still American hostages being held by Hamas.”
“The enemies from within are more dangerous to me than the enemies on the outside. Russia and China we can handle, but these lunatics within our government that are going to destroy our country, we have to get it stopped,” he said. “They’re not on the right, they’re on the left.”
Over 80,000 people attended President Trump's rally in New Jersey.
Biden can’t even get 20 people at his events.
The silent majority is BACK!
