Former President Donald Trump is never happier than when he can impugn someone, especially Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, his Republican Presidential primary rival, who is the currently frequent target of his insults. This time Trump reposted a photo of DeSantis at a presidential campaign event that drew a sizably smaller crowd than Trump’s own rally in South Carolina, Raw Story reports.

One Trumper “retruthed” a screen capture of CNN’s coverage of DeSantis’s rally in Nevada and compared it to photos of the Trump event. The differences were just as evident in the photos of Trump’s inauguration as compared to that of former President Barack Obama.

That post follows one in which Trump claimed (falsely, of course) that 75,000 people attended his event. This was immediately fact-checked by the Secret Service, which found a slight discrepancy.

“[Sheriff] Beach said he needed to get an accurate count from the Secret Service before providing a final number. Around 11 a.m. a Secret Service agent told the News there are 5,000 inside the gate and approximately 10,000 still in line,” wrote the Herald Journal’s Bob Montgomery.

Shenanigans like this are typical for Trump and this isn’t the first time he’s mocked DeSantis for drawing small crowds. The ex-president pulled this last week when DeSantis held a rally on the Texas-Mexico border that drew a small crowd.

For Trump, the size of his crowds and his infamously small hands have been a big deal.

The crowd size of his inauguration was part of Trump’s first interview upon entering the White House, and Fox News, which typically fawned all over Trump, at one point showed empty seats at a New Hampshire rally in 2019, even though Trump bragged the room was packed. He even whines that he never gets any credit for how large the crowd was during the January 6 Capitol attack.

“What Donald Trump has succeeded in doing, in many ways—in his own mind he thinks he’s succeeded tremendously—is to intimidate the press,” noted veteran newsman Dan Rather in 2017. “And many of these things are designed to intimidate the press. And this is gut-check time for the press, not to be intimidated.”

I think most members of the press who have to deal with Trump are probably used to this by now. Hopefully, some journalists can have a good laugh over this, because that’s what Trump deserves.
