JUNEAU, WISCONSIN: Former president Donald Trump has never been one to shy away from calling out his own team, and this past weekend was no exception.

In yet another display of frustration, Trump openly criticized his 2024 campaign staff during a rally in Juneau, Wisconsin, as per The Raw Story.

His ire stemmed from a mistake made when displaying an image from a previous event.

The incident adds to a growing list of grievances Trump has aired about those closest to him, reinforcing the unpredictability of his political style as he moves forward in his latest bid for the presidency.



 

Donald Trump lashes out at team during rally for displaying wrong picture

Donald Trump, known for his meticulous attention to his crowd sizes, was eager to show off a photo from a recent rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, during his speech in Juneau.

"We have something to show you the kind of crowd we had last night," he told the Wisconsin crowd, eager to showcase his impressive turnout. But when the image was displayed, things took an unexpected turn.

With the picture up on the screen, Trump quickly turned sour, expressing frustration with his campaign team. "That was unbelievable," he said, referring to the mistake. "They used the wrong picture."

Trump clarified that while the image was of the same event, it was framed in a way he disliked.

'"It's the same picture, but they had the two side things are so stupid," he continued, alluding to side panels or cropped elements that apparently distorted the full scope of the crowd. "But that's what it is, you know, we have that every once in a while."

The criticism, though delivered casually, highlighted Trump’s deep dissatisfaction with his team’s attention to detail.

His fixation on optics, especially when it comes to crowd size, has been a consistent theme throughout his political career. Whether it's in-person turnout at rallies or online engagement, Trump often emphasizes these metrics as a measure of his popularity.

This wasn’t the first time Trump has publicly called out his own team.

Earlier this year, in September, he made headlines for a particularly erratic news conference, during which he unleashed a barrage of complaints against his legal team, according to The Daily Beast.

During the news conference, Trump expressed disappointment with his attorneys, including his high-profile defense lawyer Alina Habba.

Standing awkwardly behind him as he vented his frustration, Habba and the rest of the legal team were seemingly caught off guard by the public rebuke.

"I’m disappointed in my legal talent, I’ll be honest with you," Trump admitted, in a rare moment of candor.
