Donald Trump’s latest boast about his crowd size fell apart in a hurry as he was fact-checked in real-time while he was still speaking.

“We do a lot of these beautiful rallies, and it’s so great,” the former president said in Reading, Pennsylvania, on Wednesday. “We never have an empty seat, never have, look at it.”

Just one problem: While the sections closest to the stage were packed with MAGA faithful, there were plenty of empty seats toward the back of the venue ― and observers began sharing images of them on social media almost immediately.

An Associated Press photo also shows some of the empty seats…

    Do you mean X, formerly Twitter? I had trouble hearing you with Elon’s dick in your mouth.

      No I mean X. It’s not like calling it Twitter or X formally Twitter is an effective protest.

      We need to stop using X because it is owned by a fascist asshole who is bank rolling other fascist assholes.

      X killed Twitter, it’s dead. I never used it, and have no fond memories of it so for me it quite easy to accept.

      It’s ike saying Darth Vader formally known as Anakin Skywalker. Like yeah that’s factually true but misses kinda everything about the depth if the change.

      X is not a place for free speech or freedom of any kind. It is an extreme right propaganda machine with ads. And if you have a hard time remembering that, it might be that you are calling it by the wrong name.

        This is stupid, but I propose something like:

        “X VanTwitter”

        Which keeps the familial association to its former identity in a widely recognizable way.

        Perhaps De/Der/DenTwitter.

        Like I said, stupid. 😂
