President Donald Trump told the crowd at his rally in El Paso, Texas, on Monday that he got special permission from the El Paso Fire Department to let 10,000 people inside the El Paso County Coliseum.
El Paso Fire Department spokesman Enrique D. Aguilar told The El Paso Times that not only did the fire department not give Trump special permission, but the Coliseum had about 6,500 people in it during the president’s rally. Aguilar says that number was at capacity and well within its standard allowance.
The spokesman added that “it might be 10,000 with the people outside” total, but the fire department didn’t track the number of people outside the venue. While the number Trump quoted about his attendees might not have been far off, he blatantly lied that he got special permission, according to Aguilar.
Gee, who will the Trump Toady's believe?
#1: There are laws that prevent such things. The Fire Department would know that. A venue holds a capacity of X amt. of people. The Fire Chief said the FULL capacity at the building they were in was 6500 and they did NOT allow others in. There were people outside. They estimate at the most, 10,000. YET...Trump had to lie about getting special permission to crowd people in, which would be a huge mess if there had been a fire.
Then he goes on to say that there were 35,000 people there altogether. The most, with the 6500 inside and those outside was estimated between 10,000 and 17,000. Far cry from the 35,000 Trump and his eldest son, Diaper Don, claimed.
Of course then he slimed Beto O'Rourke and lied about the size of the rally against the wall. A couple hundred people, he said. The estimation was in the thousands. Not that it matters...Trump is the President. O'Rourke hasn't even stated whether or not he'll run. Of course the President will draw more crowds even if he is a braying, lying, corrupt jackass.
35,000? LOL Nothing like doubling the numbers.
Damn!! It'd be funny if there weren't so many IDIOTS who buy his bullsh*t.
