Is anyone here from a country NOT called USA where they pile up a bunch of people in the background of a politician who then gets applause for everything?

I have literally never seen this in Europe. In Germany, we’d probably consider this “weird” in case our politicians did that. Feels a bit like clicking the thumbs-up button of my own social media post…

    Regardless of who’s speaking, I always end up staring at the people sitting/standing behind them. Some part of me is waiting for them to break character, I think.

      i think some of the rallies, where people caught on to people acting strangly a couple times when he was signalling htem to cheer, i remember one video was a guy akwardly sitting there staring at people, while people were cheering.
