    If they aren’t showing up for his rallies, they probably won’t be showing up for the election, either. Wouldn’t THAT be a shame?

    I remember when Bernie Sanders filled the Moda Center in Portland and there were another estimated 9,000 people outside.

    There were photographs and video to prove it.

    Sooo… photos? Video?

      Look at all that engagement and excitement only to be squandered by the democratic party so they could ram their bought and paid for politician down our throats instead. Still so sad.

          It’s so utterly depressing. We still get the shittiest candidates rather than the populist ones. I hate voting because it’s “better than the alternative.” I’ll never forget the DNC for what they did to Bernie.

          Not voting for dumpy ever but i’d vote for anything that gets us good candidates that are advocates and leaders, not politicians. I hope to christ we get more like Bernie in the future.

      But the school administration stopped us from getting another 500, 600 even 1000 people in. Thousands of people were told no, and that was okay. But we could have fit another 600 people.

      So I don’t know anything about the school. I don’t know anything about this school, but they could have allowed more people. You got people standing outside. Look at all the people outside. They could have come in, they could have come in. So we’re not happy.

      Always a fucking conspiracy with this guy. He couldn’t possibly recon with his own unpopularity, it’s the school administration (this time) out to get him.

    This is why he loves his outdoor rallies so much. There are no empty seats when there are no seats to be left empty.

    lmao.

    You got people standing outside. Look at all the people outside.

    realizes someone might actually check

    And then they actually pushed the people very far away from the building where we have beautiful cameras set up for the overflow crowds,

    The overflow crowds were incredibly large but you wouldn’t know them, they go to another school.

    Combine this with the recent footage showing Trump waving to literally nobody so his team can edit that footage later showing him waving to enormous crowds.

      We still need to vote though. The interest in his rally’s and even him may be mixed overall and waning, but so much gerrymandering and the predisposition of the politically ignorant to simply vote red because the “blue are the bad guys” is crazy.

      Hillary lost in 2016 because too many were complacent and were sure he would lose.

      They conveniently “pushed them all far away from the beautiful cameras we set up for the overflow crowd”.

      Trump is such a fucking blatant liar. I hope they make him eat this one.

          Cameras “we” set up.

          Anything/anyone on “our” side is beautiful.

          Anything on the other side is evil/fake/etc.

            More to the point, why set up cameras for the overflow crowd? They need screens showing footage from inside, not cameras filming them.
