'Wow!' Cheers — and laughs — as Tim Walz jabs Donald Trump over Arizona crowd size

Vice President Kamala Harris' running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, took to the stage at the Democratic rally in Arizona on Friday night and cheers erupted as he took a shot at Donald Trump's obsession with crowd size.

His first line of the night was to remark on crowd size, addressing a packed crowd in the Diamond Desert Arena, a venue capable of holding nearly 20,000 people.

"Hello, Arizona!" said Walz, to applause from the rally-goers. "Wow. Wow. You might have seen, a few people showed up in Philadelphia the other night. And then 10,000-plus walked into a field in western Wisconsin. And then, on Wednesday, the largest crowd of the campaign showed up in Detroit, Michigan. But Arizona just couldn't leave it alone, could you? Wow."

"You know, it's not as if anybody cares about crowd sizes or anything," he added, jabbing his MAGA rivals.

Trump for years has boasted about his ability to draw a crowd in his campaigns, and particularly to draw a larger crowd than his opponents. The script has flipped since Harris took over as the Democratic presidential nominee, with her rallies pulling larger numbers than Trump, and Trump reportedly frustrated over it.

The former president brought up his crowd size fixation during a widely-panned press conference from his Mar-a-Lago country club on Thursday, where, among many other things, he falsely claimed that even Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. couldn't produce a crowd as large as himself at the March on Washington.
