In a new video, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ superPAC criticizes former President Donald Trump for the lower turnout at his campaign rallies.
In an attempt to discredit Trump’s assertion that tens of thousands of people attend his political rallies in his quest to become the Republican nominee for the 2024 election, Never Back Down, a fundraising group aligned with DeSantis, released a video.
The video intercuts Trump’s statements about crowd sizes with multiple news segments that depict the exact opposite, with empty bleachers and noticeable gaps in the crowds.
Several news reports claim that only a few hundred people show up to his rallies.
The former president has frequently claimed that events pertaining to him have drawn tens of thousands, occasionally even a million people.

In January 2017, President Trump claimed that more than a million people attended his inauguration.
At the time, his press secretary, Sean Spicer, said that it was “the largest audience to ever witness an inauguration.”
The PAC connected to DeSantis’s presidential aspirations, Never Back Down, has previously poked fun at Trump.
The group contrasted DeSantis’s academic record with Trump’s in an earlier video.
Additionally, it exalted the fact that the governor of Florida served as a Navy SEAL commander’s legal advisor while stationed in Iraq, something that his political opponent lacks. In contrast, Trump is the overwhelming favorite to win the GOP presidential nomination in 2024.
