Parade route from Capital to WH. Entire stands empty. Crowd thin. pic.twitter.com/7AcpJkBO8O— Katy Tur (@KatyTurNBC) January 20, 2017
Yes, Donald Trump and his administration were busy on their very first day in the White House to argue with everyone about the fact that they had small inauguration crowds. For some reason i don't believe the American public elected him for that! Such pettiness. The guy who is the president of America is busy about how many people were at his festivities, his ego is so fragile, it is very scary!So I'm above the #Inauguration parade route and I would say it's...sparsely attended. pic.twitter.com/kBEpihjR8j— Rob Flaherty (@Rob_Flaherty) January 20, 2017
But worse, Spicer just launched several blatant lies, attacked the media for just reporting the accurate non equivocal truth that trump had small crowds, attacking them as if they are lying. We know that Donald decided to go to war with the media, and Frankly it's pretty scary. Every dictator in history had a punching bag, because a dictator is always the best; but what to do if something in the country doesn't go well? You need to find someone to blame. And this is what Donald is doing. He's making himself out to be this figure that knows everything and does everything best. And when something wont go according to his will, he won't acknowledge that, but he'll just lie and say that it never happened and the people who dare say the truth will get attacked by him as "biased media", and most of his supporters will actually buy his crap!
It is embarrassing, as an American, to watch this briefing by Sean Spicer from the podium at the White House. Not the RNC. The White House.

There's hundreds of photographic evidence that shows that Donald trump had a very poorly attended inauguration. Instead of admitting and moving on, like EVERY SINGLE ADULT in America would've done, instead he went on a tirade about how the media lies. No, the media didn't lie here. And I know it's hard for you Donald to grasp the fact that a majority of America hates you, and this will continue even more if you behavethe way you did this past week.Brutal deadpan from @jaketapper re: Trump's obsession with crowd sizes: "I can't think of anything more important to the American people." pic.twitter.com/TtCeLOI4ks— Kenneth P.

Then the guy goes to the CIA, and standing behind the sacred wall, launches into a rant on how he had the biggest crowds ever, and how biased the media is.
I mean come on, is there no respect in you for the men and women who sacrificed for outperform country? Are you not ashamed of yourself? Instead of talking about their sacrifices you have to make it about yourself? This is such a disgrace of a president !“Trust me, I’m like a smart person,” President Trump tells the CIA pic.twitter.com/FhliMHrOEL— Bradd Jaffy (@BraddJaffy) January 21, 2017
http://www.nytimes.com/2017/01/24/opinion/the-shocking-affront-of-donald-trumps-cia-stunt.html?smprod=nytcore-iphone&smid=nytcore-iphone-share Fast forward to day 3 and little Donald is back at it again. This time telling people in congress that he would've won the popular vote if not for the millions of illegals. THIS IS BANANAS. The guy just can't let go. He's so busy with having to show everyone that he's the best and smartest, that he ends up being the most childish idiot ever.
This is an astounding read: Trump is literally consumed by narcissism, unable to focus on priorities of his job.https://t.co/FRpF6nKvK7 pic.twitter.com/IhrNIcmANc— Matt McDermott (@mattmfm) January 24, 2017
And BTW, Trump's own lawyers argued in court last month (against efforts by Jill stein to recount the votes) that there is no evidence of ANY voter fraud.
So who is lying to the American people? The media or Donald Trump?
