EVERETT — Talk to the Donald Trump supporters lining up outside Xfinity Arena on Tuesday, and you’d hear a common refrain about the importance of the upcoming election: Everything.

“Our way of life is at stake,” said Shelly Fine, a medical student from Everett.

“For me, this is American history,” said Chris Wright, a 45-year-old Boeing worker from Gold Bar standing next to her in line. “This is going to be a piece of American history when this is all said and done.”

They were among the first to arrive outside the downtown Everett venue where the real-estate-mogul-turned-politician was due to speak at 7 p.m. Wright and Fine said they got there around 7 a.m. A few places ahead, two men said they had been the first to line up at 2 a.m.

By the time Trump flew into Snohomish County, the line outside the arena stretched along 10 downtown city blocks. People were making their way into the arena, a slow process given the security checks...

He gets a crowd like this in a state he isn't supposed to win while she can't round up 200 people in Minnesota but I'm supposed to believe she's winning? Pull the other one, it has bells on it.

Is Right Side Broadcasting going to be broadcasting Trump’s speech?

It's been a fantastic stretch for Donald Trump and I think the momentum is building big time. But the media is still trying to paint a narrative that Trump is far behind in the polls. I came home from New York City in a great mood tonight and my wife is down in the dumps because the FoxNews and CNN have been basically trashing Trump all day (according to her) and totally ignoring the controversies around Crooked Hillary.

I tell her to do as I do and TURN THE BOOB TUBE OFF! Once I get home, it's just Netflix, reading a good book or Free Republic. Even during a Trump rally, I'm streaming it on RightSide Broadcasting. I've had enough of mainstream media. I might even cancel my WSJ digital subscription. I haven't read it in weeks now.

Anyway, it's good to see Donald Trump in Washington State tonight and I'm staying up late to see the full rally, even though I have to get up at 4:30 tomorrow morning to go back to work in the city. And tomorrow's speech in Phoenix...can't wait!

If I recall correctly, recent polling has him actually closer in Washington than Virginia.

Same here Sam. I’m a streamer, so I usually watch a good TV show (Binge-watching Hemlock Grove right now) after I browse here and on Breitbart.com (I no longer frequent HotAir). I pay zero attention to liberal news media sites and haven’t bought or read a newspaper in years, not even for the coupons.

It is called a full court press. Wear Crooked Hillary out.

Washington, Inner Cities. Trump understands we need ALL to make America Great again.
