Kayleigh McEnany, the White House press secretary, exaggerated the number of people who gathered in Washington, DC, on Saturday to protest President Donald Trump’s loss to President-elect Joe Biden. “More than one MILLION marchers for President @realDonaldTrump descend on the swamp in support,” she wrote Saturday morning. It’s unclear what the exact figure was, but it’s more likely that thousands or tens of thousands of people showed up, according to news outlets that reported from the scene, including The Washington Post and USA Today. Either way, the true figure appeared substantially smaller than what McEnany claimed.
