Video shows Donald Trump's rally in Tampa was definitely not 'yuge'

Last night, Donald Trump held a rally in Tampa, Florida, to a crowd size that was less than average, some would even say tiny, in fact.VIDEO (again): Trump state fair hall not packed full as he falsely claims. pic.twitter.com/RqnKoPJzHz

This is a telling sign, considering the Republican candidate, who has long boasted that his crowds are "yuge," needs to absolutely win the battleground state of Florida.
According to the most recent polls, Trump isn't doing too hot in the Sunshine State. Nate Silver's FiveThirtyEight shows, at the moment, a 24.9% chance of Trump winning Florida, with Hillary Clinton showing a blistering 75%.
And while both sides love to claim they have the biggest crowds, it's worth noting that this clip was shot during Trump's speech, rather than before or after when crowds are typically smaller.
