Trump's Birthday Parade: A Disappointing Turnout

The low turnout at Donald Trump's birthday parade in Washington, D.C., surprised many. The Trump administration had predicted 200,000 attendees, but video footage shows a much smaller crowd. "The crowd was tiny," stated one social media user, whose video went viral. The event, held on June 14th, 2025, took place on a grassy area near the White House. The parade started 30 minutes early due to inclement weather, which may have affected attendance. However, the significant difference between expected and actual attendance raises questions about public perception and support for the former president. The contrast between the administration's prediction and the reality of the event highlights the complexities of gauging public support for political figures.
