Well he was statistically wrong as there were fewer people at his inauguration. That's just math.
I heard too many biker gangs were not allowed to get in. Obviously they wouldn't let the KKK in so that's atleast 30-40K and obviously some got tired of waiting in the metal detector lines and having to remove all their guns and bullets and when got to the other side there was such confusion whose guns and whose bullets were which. Obviously many logistical problems like these.
Not to mention strict gun control laws in the DC area kept many many from even trying to attend. Obviously as they crossed the invisible barrier to DC they knew their gund would disappear, but then they didn't quite believe that when they crossed back out the guns will reappear - obviously that how gun free zones work - d-uh.
Then ofcourse these people when "fully loaded" weighed like 500lb, cos they believed that if they didn't use their rights, they would lose them. So they arrived late, several days late.
Cool.
