Trump Mentions MLK

Donald Trump had a lot to say at his Mar-a-Lago press conference on Thursday, claiming that he draws larger crowds and even comparing his January speech to Martin Luther King Jr.’s “I Have A Dream” speech.

“I’ll tell you, it’s very hard to find a picture of that crowd. You see the picture — a small number of people, relatively, going to the Capitol, but you never see the picture of the crowd. The biggest crowd I’ve ever spoken — I’ve spoken to the biggest crowds. Nobody’s spoken to crowds bigger than me, Trump said.

Donnie couldn’t resist boasting that his massive January 6, 2021, rally had surroundings similar to those of Martin Luther King Jr.’s.

He urged reporters to compare pictures of his crowd to those from MLK’s speech on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial.

Trump explained that he believes he actually drew a bigger crowd than the civil rights icon, and no one has ever seen a photo of the crowd from his speech.

“If you look at Martin Luther King, when he did his speech, his great speech, and you look at ours, same real estate, same everything, same number of people. They said he had a million people, but I had 25,000 people. But when you look at the exact same picture, and everything’s the same because it was the fountains, the whole thing all the way back to… from Lincoln to Washington. And you look at it, and you look at the picture of his crowd, my friend, we actually had more people.”

According to Business Insider, Martin Luther King Jr. drew an estimated 250,000 people, but the size of Trump’s January crowd remains clear.

Per Business Insider, this isn’t the first time Trump has mentioned Martin Luther King Jr. and made comparisons to him.

In June 2022, he told a Tennessee audience that his 2020 Fourth of July speech drew a larger crowd than the legendary activist.

Social Media Reacts

Martin Luther King Jr.’s daughter, Bernice King, caught wind of Trump’s statements and quickly reacted to his accusations on X (formerly Twitter). The lawyer and minister wrote, “Absolutely not true. I really wish people would stop using my father to support fallacy.” 

Bernice King also had receipts ready to deny Trump’s claims, sharing a photo of the turnout for her father’s “I Have A Dream” speech.

Chile! The Roomies also shared their thoughts on Donnie in The Shade Room comment section. Many social media users called him out for the comparison and thought he was out of pocket.

Instagram user @jeremiahdclemmons wrote,It is actually very scary and concerning that black people support this man.” 

Instagram user @keeping_up_wit_kesha wrote, All jokes aside, something is wrong with this man.” 

While Instagram user @iknowwhereiwanttoeat wrote, Comparing his crowds to those of a MLK speech is diabolical 😂” 

Then Instagram user @dr.keitheats__ wrote,I just lost brain cells watching this 😩” 

Instagram user @maelane.___ wrote, “I’m not voting for Kamala” but you’re gonna vote for this???????”

Another Instagram user @blackmillionaires_ wrote, Not gone lie! I laughed watching this 😂 not MLK”

Finally, Instagram user @powerserge123 wrote,MLK comparison is wild disrespect.” 

Donald Trump Confirms Debate

During the Mar-a-Lago conference, Donnie confirmed that he will debate Vice President Kamala Harris in September.

“It’s very important to have debates. We agreed with FOX on a debate of September 4th. We’ve agreed with NBC on September 10th and we’ve agreed with ABC on a date of September 25th,” Trump said.

Roomies, if you recall, Donald Trump initially refused to debate against VP Harris on ABC News. In July, he went off on the network and called out VP Harris and President Joe Biden.

“ABC Fake News is such a joke, among the absolute WORST in the business. They try to make Crooked Joe into a brave warrior because he didn’t have the guts to fight it out — He quit! They then tried to make Sleepy look like a great President — he was the WORST, and Lyin’ Kamala into a competent person, which she is not. ABC, the home of George Slopadopolus, is not worthy of holding a Debate, of which I hope there will be many!”
