In the latest episode of America’s never-ending political soap opera, President Trump has taken to social media to accuse Kamala Harris of faking her rally crowds. Trump claims that Harris’s “massive” crowds are actually AI-generated mirages. Let’s dive into this story and see what’s cooking.
On Truth Social, President Trump didn’t mince words. He declared that the crowds purportedly attending Harris’s events were as real as unicorns. Trump’s evidence? A series of photos that he claims show glaring inconsistencies. For instance, an image where the crowd’s reflection is mysteriously missing from an airplane’s window, and another where Air Force Two is suspiciously lacking its tail number. According to Trump, these anomalies are proof that Harris’s campaign is resorting to digital wizardry to inflate her crowd sizes.

Trump’s accusations come as Harris enjoys a surge of enthusiasm after replacing Joe Biden at the top of the Democratic ticket. Trump couldn’t resist comparing Harris’s rallies to his own, boasting about an Arizona rally where he allegedly drew a crowd of 80,000, dwarfing Harris’s 20,000 at the Desert Diamond Arena. Naturally, mainstream media outlets like CNN and The New York Times jumped into the fray, branding Trump’s claims as far-right conspiracy theories.
CNN reported that thousands of people, including media outlets, witnessed Harris’s event firsthand, debunking Trump’s claims. The New York Times echoed this sentiment, noting that the crowds at Harris’s rallies were consistent with her campaign’s numbers. The Times went further, suggesting that Trump is struggling to find his political footing in a race that has dramatically shifted gears since Harris took over the Democratic ticket.
Hate to be the one to tell you this but…
It’s NOT a fake A.I. generated crowd….
You have been deceived again….

There is plenty of footage of Kamala Harris’ airport event from local media, people who actually went there. Many different angles. It isn’t fake or AI generated. pic.twitter.com/t2lWiw3Y0n

If you want my honest opinion, I bet the image was a trap. From what I can tell, those people really were there, and the image is enhanced to the degree that it looks AI generated. But I think that was the point in order to try and bait President Trump into mistakenly saying something about it. But on the other side of the coin, we know why they’re all there. We know what sort of tactics Kamala has been using to get people to attend her rallies.
