Donald Trump tried to charge his base up and have his supporters protest his hush money trial. The next day, however, anti-Trump protesters outnumbered the Trump supporters as only a handful showed up. The former president was not happy and was making up excuses why so little showed up.

In a post on Truth Social, the embattled former president, who is being tried for falsifying business records in the porn star hush money trial, urged his followers to "GO OUT AND PEACEFULLY PROTEST" and "RALLY BEHIND MAGA." He mixed these comments in as he criticized the Israel-Hamas protesters who were protesting in the nearby campuses of Columbia and New York universities.

The former president, who is infamous for lying about crowd sizes, was reportedly frustrated with the low turn-out after his Truth Social post that he blamed it on the government and the police for blocking the protesters. This was not the case, however, as the streets leading to the courthouse were not impeded.

This led to some mockery from his critics, including MSNBC's Joe Scarborough, who called Donald Trump out on his claims and stated that the former president was "just going crazy" before adding, "His supporters are outnumbered by people that are holding up signs talking about porn stars and time in prison."

However, it should be noted that protests are allowed in the designated protest area near the courthouse. The NYPD is on high alert, though, especially after a man tried to burn himself outside the courthouse. He survived and was taken into custody and had to get burn treatment.

Joe Biden Pokes Fun at Donald Trump's Hush Money Trial

Joe Biden has largely stayed away from his possible November 2024 opponent's criminal trial in New York and was busy with his work as president or campaigning for re-election. This does not mean they are ignoring Donald Trump's trial, though, as he and his aides have been making joking references regarding the former president's recent legal troubles.

During a speech before steel workers in Pittsburgh last week, Biden referred to Trump being criminally tried, saying, "Under my predecessor, who is busy right now ..."

Biden also released a campaign memo that mocked the ex-POTUS with the headline, "Stormy Abortion Ban Coverage," which is a reference to Stormy Daniels, the adult film star who might bring the former president down.

Jimmy Kimmel Also Eviscerates Donald Trump After David Pecker Testimony

It is not just Joe Scarborough and President Biden who were viciously locking Trump, but late-night talk show hosts as well, including Jimmy Kimmel, who poked fun at his relationship with the National Enquirer after its publisher, David Pecker, testified in the porn star hush money trial.

Kimmel poked fun at the small crowds of Trump supporters the trial was attracting.

"Trump is drawing the biggest crowds of any president criminally indicted for having sex with a porn star in history," he joked before pointing out Trump's obsession with crowd sizes, "All Trump cares about is crowd size. One day he'll be sitting in the electric chair bragging about all the people who showed up to watch it."

He then turned his attention to Pecker's testimony. 

"It's weird, the only faithful relationship Trump's ever been in is with the National Enquirer. Think about how insane it is that our president had a mutually beneficial relationship with the National Enquirer. There are only two people on the planet who can say that: Donald Trump and Bigfoot," Kimmel noted.
