Could we get a red circle around the diversity? I can't seem to find it anywhere.

[–] pennomi@lemmy.world 52 points 10 months ago (2 children)

I can see all the diversity in there: Person, Man, Woman, Camera, TV!

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago

hey wait a minute... it sounds like you're just naming things you see around!

[–] Empricorn@feddit.nl 3 points 10 months ago

Wow, you should be president!

[–] akincisor@sh.itjust.works 36 points 10 months ago

For the blind:

  • there's people of both genders
  • there's people in MAGA hats and those without (showing broad bipartisan support)
  • there's old people and "one foot in the grave" people
  • there's thin, fat and morbidly obese people
  • there's even people without hats
  • there's people who are paid to be there and those who are there of their own free will - no AI here!

I swear you people won't believe what's in front of your eyes if it doesn't match your damn Commie agenda!

/s because even I can't tell anymore

I saw the diversity, there's: young white guy, old white guy, young white woman, old white woman, person wearing a hat, person not wearing a hat, man with a beard, and man with not beard.

That's diverse by Republican standards.

[–] hate2bme@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Not beard haha

There’s a post menopausal woman behind the guy in blue shirt. That’s counts for diversity

[–] tootoughtoremember@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago (1 children)

post menopausal woman

"Postmenopausal female" if you're looking for the exact quote

I think I see a black woman on the stage in the background. She's definitely not with all those media personnel right around her

Diverse in ages all the way from middle age to elderly, some have bears and others are clean shaven, and some people are taller or shorter than other people.

You know, D I V E R S I T Y.

[–] erusuoyera@sh.itjust.works 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

some have bears

I imagine it's a typo but, given the spikes in Grindr use around MAGA events, it probably still works.

[–] snooggums@midwest.social 2 points 10 months ago

In addition to the bears, some have beards!

[–] bazus1@lemmy.world 34 points 10 months ago

JD, when the Secret Service won't allow your daddy to do open-air venues any longer, but you still can, it's probably a sign.

[–] Gingerlegs@lemmy.world 21 points 10 months ago (1 children)

A glimpse into the crowd of over 40,000 that attended

[–] ilinamorato@lemmy.world 16 points 10 months ago (1 children)

400,000. 40,000,000. Why stop at ridiculous? Go to ludicrous! 4 billion people! You can see it in the photo, half of the human race!

[–] cabillaud@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

Tremendous rally

[–] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 14 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Looks like more reporters than people.

[–] BartyDeCanter@lemmy.sdf.org 7 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Reporters are people, friend.

[–] curbstickle@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

Ehhhhhh

(Just kidding of course, good reporters are invaluable)

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

because to value you them you gotta be able to find them first

[–] themachine@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago

Binders full of reporters.

[–] Etterra@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago

Oh wait I see the diversity now. You got yer cowboy hats, baseball caps, no hats, ladies hats, straw hats, that fat lady with the sunglasses on top of her head...

[–] distantsounds@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago (2 children)

I’m sure it was a low turnout, but it doesn’t look like it started yet

[–] trek32@lemmy.world 18 points 10 months ago (1 children)

News reports confirm the images

"If I'm being generous, that looks like 10 rows of 10 seats across on each side," reported a tech correspondent Chris O'Brien. "So about a total of 200 people potentially?"

[–] TehWorld@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Seriously… it’s kinda fun to dunk on the low numbers and all, but arguing about crowd sizes is kinda dumb. Trump and his tiny hands can blather on about it all he wants, but we should leave it to the weirdos to complain.

The facts are that there were at least a couple hundred people there. It’s a small crowd but it’s easily handled waived away and really a distraction for those of us on the side of reason and decorum to try to distort the truth away from JDs love of couches.

[–] DickFiasco@lemm.ee 6 points 10 months ago

I could be wrong, but I think Diversity was an old, old wooden ship.

[–] BeatTakeshi@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

So many young people... This cult has a future!

[–] Dramaking37@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

Looks like he found the 3%ers. The 3% without jobs.

[–] Sanctus@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

That crusty coterie checks all the boxes you'd expect.
