After his sentence ended, he doubled down and further lied by saying "in person" which was clearly a lie. Maybe more people than ever streamed it though. But he didn't say that.

This was addressed at todays Press Secretary briefing, and Sean Spicer had reiterated and stood by what he'd said. When you consider the internet, television, tablets, and other ways thru modern tech, that people can watch the inaugural ceremony - indeed, Trump's got the broadest audience, ever! His inaugural address was watched around the globe! I see you are still trying to igmore those huge wide open spaces on the mall. Quote

"the largest audience ever to witness an inauguration, period," He's still correct! It is the largest audience (from personal attendance to media of all sorts) to witness an inauguration!

betsy Posted January 23, 2017 Author Report Posted January 23, 2017 Hahahaha, when pointedly asked by Spicer, "Do you dispute that?"........the reporter said "I don't want to get into numbers!" timer 43:13 Quote

As the saying goes: Arguing with them is a bit like playing chess with a pigeon.... Here's what matters: Trump scored HUGE where it counts: Senate, Congress, Judicial...and El Presidente', of course. They've got 4 years at least to whine (and believe me...that's all they'll do)...no point wearing yourself out. Quote Nothing cracks a turtle like Leon Uris.

They all were wrong with their forecast! That would be like Trump and Spicer saying, "Wow.....look at the crowd." Then they got a tweet from a news agency that says it's the biggest audience.....and they repeat what they were told (just like the MSM repeated what they were told by pollsters!) How come what the MSM say is not a lie.....and yet, anti-Trump says Trump/Spicer were lying??? Edited January 23, 2017 by betsy Quote

Topaz Posted January 23, 2017 Report Posted January 23, 2017 The businesses that did collection the info on those election polls were paid by GS, it may Clinton always ahead and I don't know if this was to sway people to not vote for Trump or make more Dems to come out and vote but it didn't work, at least that was what I was told...that Trump would win weeks before Nov.
