Trump Promises a ‘Sacred Number’ Attended His Jan. 6 MAGA Speech in DC

• Donald Trump reported the group for his speech on January 6 was the biggest he has ever spoken to.
• Speaking to OAN, Trump complained that the “dishonest” media does not report on the dimension of the crowd.
• When Trump explained to his supporters to march to the Capitol, the group at the rally was “at least 10,000,” claimed AP.

Former President Donald Trump complained that the media doesn’t report how “substantial” the crowd was for his speech on January 6 in advance of his supporters stormed the Capitol.

“The crowd alone was the most important crowd I have at any time – and I have spoken in advance of the most significant crowds – the major group I’ve at any time spoken by far, by a lot of times I imagine,” Trump explained in an interview with suitable-wing community One The us Information that aired on Wednesday.

“No person ever displays the pics of that.” 

“The authentic quantity I will not likely say simply because it’s going to be a headline ‘oh he exaggerated the variety.’ The serious variety was around that sacred number– you know what that range was proper?” Trump reported.

It is unclear what the former president intended by “sacred number,” but OAN host Christina Bobb explained she knew what he meant. 

When Trump was offering his speech and he advised supporters to march to the Capitol, the crowd at the rally was “at minimum 10,000,” observed AP.

“There was enjoy that working day. There was so significantly enjoy out there during the speech,” Trump explained.

The previous president repeated greatly disproved claims that the 2020 election was fraudulent.

“That was anger around a rigged election that bought that quite a few folks to go to DC. A tiny proportion and I indicate little, like fewer than 1% went to the Capitol,” Trump reported.

“That is the motive they went in huge quantities. They you should not address the quantities of men and women. They always demonstrate the Capitol with a really modest, just a little share of the people that had been there,” he reported.

“They under no circumstances clearly show helicopter shots of that remarkable group, due to the fact it was the biggest crowd I have at any time spoken to before. I’ve in no way had a crowd– I’ve never ever seen a group that big.”

“It was massive,” Bobb responded.

It is not the very first time the former president has complained about the dimensions of the group on January 6 not remaining acknowledged. He produced comparable comments in an interview with a British broadcaster in December.

Trump has long experienced an obsession with crowd numbers. 

Following his inauguration in 2017, Trump complained that the media experienced misrepresented the range of people attending his inauguration, statements which were being disproved.

In the job interview with OAN on Wednesday, Trump repeated issues that the media broadcast photographs of a meager crowd at his inauguration hours in advance of it started off, and insisted they continue on to do the exact same.

Trump had planned to keep a press conference on the initial anniversary of the Capitol insurrection but ultimately canceled it.
