Trump Now Draws Larger Crowds Than Elvis

On Saturday, 45th President and leading 2024 presidential candidate Donald Trump overflowed the town of Pickens, South Carolina with a crowd over 20 times larger than the town’s population.

Pickens, South Carolina has a population of 3,371, according to the United States Census Bureau.

On Sunday morning, Trump revealed in a post on his top-rated social media platform, Truth Social, that over 75,000 supporters attended his rally, despite temperatures being over 90 degrees.

“Rachel Campos-Duffy and Will Cain, two terrific people (along with Pete Hegseth!), were right this morning on Fox & Friends. Almost 99% of the people I support in a Republican Primary, WIN! ‘A Trump Endorsement will MAKE YOUR CAREER, A TRUMP FIGHT MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT!’” Trump wrote.

“Over 75,000 people came to our incredible Rally yesterday in South Carolina, despite an almost 100 degree temperature. It was amazing, THE PEOPLE WERE GREAT. Thank you Pickens,” Trump added.

Trump spoke at 1 p.m. and supporters began lining up for the rally a day prior.

During Trump's rally in Pickens, Elvis Presley's "If I Can Dream" song was played to the massive audience of over 75,000.

Elvis Presley’s biggest concert ever was in 1976 and was attended by over 60,000 people in the Pontiac Silverdome. The King of Rock and Roll and American icon, Elvis, performed 1,684 concerts and the Pontiac Silverdome event was his largest, with 15,000 fewer people than Trump’s South Carolina rally yesterday.

Trump is a successful music artist now, too! In March, Trump topped all music charts with his January 6 Prison Choir song, even beating Taylor Swift.

Is there anything Trump can't do?

While President, Trump, who’s a fan of Elvis, awarded Elvis the Medal of Freedom.

During the 2018 White House event, Trump played Presley’s gospel song “How Great Thou Art.”

“There was Elvis. That was my idea. I said, 'Give me a little, little song.' That was, I guess a little promotional ability, but I will tell you, he was something special,” Trump said.
