'Look at the pics'! Politico's estimate about how many Trump supporters are in DC seems a little off

We haven’t heard any official count as of yet, but there are clearly a massive amount of participants in the pro-Trump march in Washington, DC today:

AMAZING! Can hear you all from the West Wing Colonnade. A beautiful day in Washington, D.C. THANK YOU, PATRIOTS!! #MAGA??? pic.twitter.com/RJJ8bvYlfr

But Mollie Hemingway knows the mainstream media all too well:

As crowd realizes how massive rally is jokes start flying about how media will claim that there are a few thousand people here. pic.twitter.com/Bt95Qv2mLJ

Forget “thousands”…

politico said "hundreds"

Yep, that’s the number Politico used for this story:

A week after the presidential race was called for Joe Biden, hundreds of Trump loyalists converged on the nation’s capital to protest the election results and falsely assert the vote was stolen https://t.co/oLawPageQy

Nobody will accuse Politico of trying to artificially inflate the size of the crowd in DC today:

Hundreds ?? Look at the pics you idiots – 100s of THOUSANDS. https://t.co/xXmJSBdtFg

I don’t understand. Does “hundreds” mean the same thing as “million?” https://t.co/8TfNAREgja

Proof positive that liberals cannot count. It Is the reason we’re so concerned about the election results and integrity. https://t.co/051ktNzyOd
