A breaking report emerged Saturday afternoon that 80,000 people are set to attend President Donald J. Trump’s rally in Wildwood, New Jersey.
Diana Glebova, a New York Post campaign reporter, wrote on X that the Trump team informed her Saturday aboard Trump Force One that there would be “80,000 people at his New Jersey rally today.” She added, “The biggest of the 2024 campaign.”
A crowd of 80,000 people in Wildwood would be roughly 16 times the small city’s population, which is about 5,000 residents.
This report blows previous attendance expectations for the president’s rally on the Jersey Shore clear out of the water. Last week, local news predicted massive crowds of 40,000 people, which still would have been an incredible turnout.
Trump campaign spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt responded to the news, stating, “YUGE!!”
