PORTLAND, Maine (AP) - The Twittersphere is having fun at the expense of supporters of President Donald Trump in Maine.

A handful of supporters rallied Saturday in support of Trump’s attempt to ban residents from seven Muslim-majority countries from entering the U.S.

Twitter users quickly poked fun at the humble assemblage. One wrote that more people showed up for her birthday party and that she’s “realllly unlikeable.” The Huffington Post had this headline: “World’s saddest Trump rally draws just eight supporters.”

Recent anti-Trump rallies have drawn larger crowds in Portland. More than 10,000 people attended a women’s march a day after Trump’s inauguration.

Organizer William Hall of Gray said he wanted to show that Trump has support. He said the gathering wasn’t an organized event, and that it was just he and some friends.
