As Trump brags "every rally is full," cameraman pans over empty arena [View all]

Former President Donald Trump got called out mid-boast on Saturday as he claimed his rallies are always full, right before a cameraman panned to a number of empty seats across the stadium.

“We have had the biggest rallies in the history of any country, and every rally is full. You do not have any seats that are empty. You did not have anything,” Trump told the crowd in Greensboro, North Carolina.

An NTD.com cameraman then zoomed in on sections of empty seats as people left the already sparsely populated stadium. The video quickly went viral and was reposted by the Harris-Walz X account: “Trump: ‘Every rally is full. You do not have any seats that are empty,'" the post reads. "Cameraperson: Hold my beer."

Crowd size has long been a fixation for Trump. He's repeatedly bragged about how big his rallies are compared to those of Vice President Kamala Harris and even falsely claimed that she used AI to generate images of a massive crowd at one of her campaign stops.
