From Slate--

12:15 p.m. during Trump's inauguration:





[font size = "+2"]12:05 p.m. women's March in D.C.:[/font]



Slate adds this comment:

[font size = "+1"]The difference is even more impressive when you consider that the march also filled the streets around the mall.

1. Oh okay

Less people tRump

More people Womens March

That is what I see plain and simple.

2. Did Trump pay any attention to this protest?

Will the GOP acknowledge this turnout? Locally (on Facebook), the Trump believers are pointing out the vandalism that happened and labeling the protesters as hooligans and much worse.

5. Whether he does or not, the world did, and so did the US. Besides, he

cannot help noticing and being bothered by his strikingly evident unpopularity. He won't be able to stop himself from calling attention to it, by denying the numbers of the women's march and lying about the numbers at his inauguration.

6. He sent the new press secretary out to lie about it. It was

amazing. I can't believe it hasn't been posted here yet.

3. and cities all over the world. on all 7 continents. and

the crowd shut down transit systems in all the major cities that i know of.
chicago march, yes they did march, not only gridlocked downtown, it backed up the entire regional transit system. nobody counting folks stuck in tunnels unable to get anywhere near the marches.

chi geared up for 150k. it was smashed. it was swamped. it radiated out for 50-60 miles, to the end of the commuter lines. complete shut down.

a tsunami to follow the trump quake.
lets hope it scrubs it all clean.

7. So Trump gagged the Park Service?

The Trump way.... don't like the facts, silence the fact finders.

8. Remember the Fox News 912 march there were 70000 people and

Fox News claimed over a million people. I think they showed winter trees with no leaves on
September 9th in their news report. The crowds were uuuuuuuuuuge.

9. Thank you, tblue!

10. I have been posting comparative pics all day--of the Trump and Obama inauguration numbers,

of Trump's inauguration numbers and the numbers for the women's march, of the difference between the way Trump greeted the Doles and the way Obama did, of the Trump and Obama inauguration cakes (Plagiarism! Trump's cake is a direct copy of the Obama cake, specifically requested by Trump's transition team!).

One good way to see how awful Trump is is to compare him to what is obviously so much better.

13. Trump's Press Secretary

I saw a video of the large crowd near the National Mall on twitter and thought no wonder Trump's Press Secretary was in the Press Room claiming that Trump's inauguration was the most watched inauguration in history. Seeing the large crowd that showed up for the Women's March on Washington must anger Trump. That crowd easily dwarfed Trump's inauguration crowd.
