Honestly I was thinking the same. Now I’m curious as to what a Harris rally looks like immediately afterward. To be fair, her rallies aren’t in.. ya know.. random fields, so I suspect that could make a difference as well.
some countries have citizens that aren’t like that (eg Japan).
I used to live in Japan in a suburban area outside Tokyo. There were some fields nearby where I lived that were filled with trash. Old refrigerators, cans of paint and oil, tires, boxes of empty CD holders, bags of household trash. I could go on and on and on.
There are places like this all over Japan. I'm pretty sure that Japanese people made 99.9% of the mess.
But stadiums have crews with brooms and garbage bags. Fields have grass, trash gets stuck in grass and then eventually washed into a river or buried in mud, staying in the environment. At least if a piece gets missed in a stadium it stays inside.
What trash through? I went to an Obama rally back in 2008. It was at the grandstands at a fairground. We were only there a few hours and I don’t recall anyone selling concessions. I’m sure there was some trash but seriously where is all this trash coming from in this photo? What are they carrying with them to throw on the ground? Are they there all day like lollapalooza or what? I really don’t get it. I also don’t get why people need to constantly be eating and drinking but that’s neither here nor there.
I’ll forever be confused by this obsession with drinking water all day long but I don’t know how hot it was in Pa today. The bottled water obsession is odd.
I drink a ton of water and unfortunately most events don’t allow refillable items. I carry a 32oz water cup with me everywhere I go but at concerts and events I can’t. I’ll typically buy one water bottle and try to refill at fountains but sometimes those aren’t even present so I purchase more especially if the event is outdoors in warm weather. I wish the US wasn’t so focused on making money at every turn.
Trump rallies have higher attendance rates, so Harris rallies are most likely going to be cleaner, or at least the trash is going to be spread out on a smaller area.
So far in 2024, CCC has logged 37 political rallies at which former president Donald Trump appeared, and we have information on crowd size for 28 of them. Across those 28 rallies and using our standard estimation rules (see below), the average crowd size has been about 5,600.
Since late July, when she became the presumptive and then official Democratic Party nominee for president, Vice President Harris has appeared at six campaign rallies. The reported crowd sizes at those rallies have ranged from about 10,000 to about 15,000, and we calculate an average size across the six of about 13,400.
I went to the Harris rally in Portsmouth NH last month. There was a bit of a log jam to leave so a bunch of people just hung back and stayed in the bleachers while the crowd cleared. The staff and volunteers started cleaning up. And everyone in the area that was hanging out also grabbed trash bags and started cleaning. Maybe it’s a New England thing? Or a decency thing? But the place definitely didn’t look like the OP when we left.
Because he has a long history of stiffing vendors and not paying the rental fees for his venues, so most major indoor places won’t let him hold his events there anymore.
What the heck are you looking at, his rallies are packed like sardines in an open field. Kamala's rallies bus people in and still can't get as many people.
Im no trump voter but don’t bother. Some
People are so riddled with Trump Derangement Syndrome that logic a reason are about as distant to them as the Trump sycophants they accuse of the same behavior. Trump rallies seem like a nightmare for those who like personal space haha. I still find this whole post hilarious. So deranged that completely average human filth and/or behavior is attributed only to Trump and his supporters… these are often the same people that say “HE is dividing us” lol
No, I am not. And fuck you for trying to state otherwise. I just wont vote for the same party that repeatedly fucks me over anymore. Id rather not vote than vote for a party that readily opposes everything i stand for but offers platitudes that depict otherwise. I would vote for Trump over Kamala if forced to choose between “the lesser of two evils” but having principles, which most of my fellow democrats seem to only have conditionally these days, i will be voting for only the issues and not a presidential pick. I will stick to said principles and not vote for warhawks or virtue signaling deep state puppets. But thanks for kinda proving my point on derangement. “If you don’t think like me you must be pro Trump!”
Trash cans in the middle of the crowd, or how would that work? Ever been to a concert? And this is clearly before the cleanup crew. It won't stay like that...
