Anyway even accepting all the argument's premises, it's bunk. This seems like a smaller crowd than Glenn Beck's stupid Tea Party rally

Because Donald Trump's brand right now is more toxic than Glenn Beck's was back then, and this is with him having won everything

Anyway in general this argument is crap. There are big events in DC ALL THE TIME. People come to DC for all kinds of dumb shit ALL THE TIME

You get bigger crowds than the Trump inauguration for the National Barbecue Battle, is that also the "coastal elite"

The whole reason hotels in DC are a clusterfuck is everyone in Middle America considers it required to take your kids to see the capital

Now you're trying to spin that going to DC is some kind of expensive elite Caribbean vacation thing just to excuse Trump's shit turnout

Also, just to add, there are Women's Marches EVERYWHERE. Even people who really can't make it to DC make it happen somehow.

Trump supporters could've staged Inauguration rallies in their hometowns, too. They just didn't.
