Joe Biden and Kamala Harris hosted a campaign rally at Girard College in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on Wednesday, but the event failed to attract a significant crowd. Despite the venue being a predominantly Black boarding school, the college gym appeared less than half full, with a considerable portion of attendees being members of the press, as observed in a photo shared by the Republican National Committee. Contrary to claims by a paid Democrat operative who attempted to portray the rally as well-attended, a conservative social media influencer pointed out that the image circulated by the operative was cropped to give a false impression of a packed house.
The lackluster turnout at Biden’s rally stands in stark contrast to the massive crowds drawn by former President Donald Trump at recent events. Trump, known for his ability to attract large audiences, garnered attention on Truth Social, mocking Biden’s rally attendance by suggesting that only a small fraction of expected attendees showed up.
