Judging from pictures, the real crowd was Saturday, not Friday.

Ms. 'Con'way would differ with her 'alternate facts'.

Never too old to have a happy childhood!

For better or worse we seem to be living in it too, and her boss is in charge of both universes!

As for crowd size comparisons, the Washington Metro carried about 600,000 riders on inauguration day but over 1,000,000 the day after (1st day of the women's march).  That second figure is an all-time Saturday ridership record for the Metro.
