I don't think anyone (except maybe Trump, I don't know what he actually said) is trying to say that the first black president in US history didn't have the bigger turnout.

Trumpsters can keep showing these shitty alternate angles but it still looks like there are more people at Obama's first inauguration.
But honestly who gives a fuck how big the crowds are? Why does this bother him so much? He won the election, he needs to get over it.

I believe they were both taken from the Washington Monument.

One image was Trump's inauguration on Friday, taken by Jackson just as Trump took the oath of office, Jackson said.
The other picture was taken by Reuters photographer Stelios Varias from the same spot during former President Barack Obama's first inauguration, between 12:07 p.m. and 12:26 p.m., during Obama's inaugural address.
Reuters published a combination of the two pictures at 2:02 p.m. (1902 GMT). The caption read: "A combination of photos taken at the National Mall shows the crowds attending the inauguration ceremonies to swear in U.S. President Donald Trump at 12:01 p.m. (L) on January 20, 2017 and President Barack Obama on January 20, 2009, in Washington, DC."
The caption did not state which crowd was larger.

The main stream media's narrative was "Ha! Did you see how few people showed up at Trump's Inauguration!? Everyone hates him except the racists!"
You are right though.. who gives a fuck? Well, besides the OP.

Actually the mainstream media had moved on to covering the women's march on Saturday when Sean Spicer came out and claimed it was the biggest inauguration crowd ever. So most people did get over it, but Trump didn't so he had to send out his lackey to lie. Sad!

Why do liberals keep talking about who had more people attend the inauguration? Who gives a fuck.

So, because they are putting the dead horse in front of you they are somehow forcing you to beat it?

You literally quoted me saying I don't understand why people give a fuck about this.

The size of the crowd is the dead horse. Trump is the one beating it.
Trump, his Press secretary and his spokespeople stand in front of the press, and the public and bold face lie about it and many other things. Everyone knows the truth. It's the lying, the promotion of theory without evidence, that people are going to call out every single day of his term. Them lying is not a dead horse. It can never be a dead horse. We can never come to accept it as the new normal.

I don't generally get too involved in the right, left, liberal, conservative, democrat, republican bullshit because it all generally comes out the same in the wash. But this is the most important thing to remember. If they are not held accountable for trying to force a bold face lie or deception on something so meaningless, imagine what they might do when it matters.

Politicians held accountable for lying.. that's rich.

That's exactly the attitude that allows governments to become and stay corrupt.

Look folks, don't post about cnn, washington post, bbc, abc, msnbc, cbs, and npr like that. You're going to make the special snow flakes kill themselves.
