Most of the arena’s 19,356 were full at the start of Trump’s speech, and some supporters stood on the arena floor. But the crowd – especially in the upper bowl – dwindled as he spoke.
It’s unclear what record the president was referring to. Target Center’s website says its record attendance at an event was 20,200 for a U2 concert in 2005. And the Minnesota Timberwolves’ attendance record is 20,412, set at a game against the Golden State Warriors in 2017, said Dan Bell, a team spokesman.
The president’s claim of 25,000 people standing outside was inflated. FOX 9 crews stationed outside the arena saw a few hundred people watching the speech in an overflow area.
It would be nice logtroll if you responded to what I said. What I said was that there were over 20,000 people in the Target Center for the Trump rally and about 10,000 who couldn't get in.

These three quotes from the articles you posted links to agree with what I said. The article I posted a link to was about what the charges for the rally and who was going to pay them, not about the attendance at the rally. So the articles you posted links to back up what I said and did not refute the article I posted a link to.
