It might be a sign of things to come. Here’s what the crowd from Donald Trump’s welcome concert looked like from above, compared to the number of people who turned out for Barack Obama eight years ago.

That’s Trump’s on the left, in case you’re wondering.

Can’t believe more people didn’t turn up to watch Toby Keith, 3 Doors Down and, er, the Piano Guys. If only Trump, the great deal maker, had managed to secure that Springstreen tribute act, eh?

Around 400,000 people turned out for Obama in 2009. Early estimates suggested Trump drew 10,000.

Trump seemed to enjoy it thought. Everyone else was looking up “Lee Greenwood and the Frontmen of Country” on Wikipedia.
