Donald Trump speaks to shrunken Atlanta crowd as poll numbers drop

[brendablethyn 536]

Amid shrinking poll numbers and smaller crowds, Donald Trump’s rhetoric took a dark turn on Wednesday in Atlanta.

The presumptive Republican nominee struck an apocalyptic tone, projecting that the United States would not survive if he were not elected. He raised the notion of welcoming the North Korean dictator, Kim Jong-un, to the United States for negotiations. And he repeated his contention that Japan might have to “go nuclear” if it did not offer the United States better pay for its military protection.

Recent polls show Hillary Clinton leading Trump by double digits nationally. And his unfavorability ratings continue to rise.

That slowdown in support seemed evident on Wednesday when Trump spoke at Atlanta’s Fox Theatre, which holds less than half the audience he commanded during his last appearance in Atlanta in February. “This place is packed,” he said, shielding his eyes against stage lights. “We have people outside who couldn’t get in. Does anybody want to give up their seat?”

Apparently Trump could not see the hundreds of empty seats in the theater’s second level. A similarly reduced crowd showed up at a recent campaign stop in Virginia.

Whether Hillary will win or not, this presidency showed there are still too many bigoted people in America.

Personally, it just made them come out of the shadows for me. I always knew they were there and my Facebook and personal friendships are happier, brighter, more accepting places now

Now that it's been proven that a wealthy celebrity/reality-TV star can run for President and come as far as becoming a party nominee #Kanye2020 seems like a viable possibility

By how many per cent do you think he will lose from Clinton? My guess is at least 20.

It's hard to say. If he says stupid things like he did last week calling the judge Mexican I can see it being a blow out. But if he stays disciplined it could be about 5. He's got so much in his favor, including a very unpopular opponent who is trying to win a third term for her party.

I would be willing to bet his crowds are still far larger than Hillary's.

His rallies are like raucous circuses, interrupted by the clamor of a captivated crowd that is quick to finish his sentences. Hers seem more like sober presidential addresses, exhaustive litanies of proposals presented to well-behaved supporters. Making matters worse, Hillary Clinton tends to arrive late, while the Donald Trump Show always begins on time.

The contrast could not be more striking between Clinton's controlled appearances and the fervent chaos that surrounds the public events of the billionaire populist, who strides onto stage to the deafening beat of 2 Unlimited's "Get Ready for This." "Trump! Trump!" roared thousands of his supporters recently at a convention center in Anaheim, California, before breaking into cries of "Build the wall! Build the wall!"

At a Clinton event near Los Angeles, impatience is palpable as supporters await her arrival. The playlist runs on an endless loop, and a sigh of dismay courses through the auditorium when a seventh speaker steps up to the microphone. Hillary Clinton arrives 45 minutes late.
