Bernie Sanders rallied thousands of supporters in Washington state three weeks ahead of its presidential primary, calling for the grassroots movement that led to his win in the state’s 2016 caucuses to continue through the broader primary that takes place March 10.
“We may not have billions of dollars to throw around, but we have hundreds of thousands of people in every state in this country knocking on doors,” he said. “And that’s why we’re going to win here in Washington and why we’re going to win all over this country.”

“He drew around 17,000 that is a Trump number this guy is a Marxist and he is dangerous. “
I agree 100%. Why conservatives think this guy would be a pushover is foolish. More than half the country are now the takers.
west coast band named “Portugal. The Man” opened for Bernie
Wurst band name since “The Chocolate Watch Band”.
Yes......He generally always has a concert..it draws the kiddies. Cheaper than busing them when he has his rallys at colleges as well.
Regardless the Dems will boot him if they go to a broker convention.
The people came to see the band.
Is he having a rally in Portland?
If not half this mob came up from there...at least.
Visuals are appealing to the youth....they’ve been conditioned to ‘view’ rather than think or search for truth. Very easily mislead and Bernie knew this from the start.
Let’s talk about girls
There are many good people in Tacoma - they didn’t attend this communist rally, however.
Be interesting to see his demographics .
Sorry but the bern has to have an entertainer present and for free and beer being sold in the concessions.
Ha ha I don’t know any of their song titles.
I’ll raise you Incense and Peppermints by the Strawberry Alarm Clock
It was a large venue (Tacoma Dome), and a claimed crowd of 17,000. Looking at pics, it was a big crowd. Having a band perform likely gave Bernie a small boost, but not much. Sure, this is Sea-Tac, pretty much the far left equivalent of a Trump Rally in Dallas. Still, people shouldn’t underestimate how popular Bernie is with the hard left. If he wins the nomination, you will see some crowds that rival Trump’s turn out to see and support him. We have to hope more traditional democrats stay home or become “Trump Democrats”.

[Bernie Bro] Hi! I am here to talk with you about Comrade Bernie for President!
[American] Get off my porch you Communist freak!
{metallic click}
[Bernie Bro] But, but... Wait! {Blocks door from shutting}
{BLAM!} {Door slams}
[American] I warned you, you Communist toad... Martha, fetch the backhoe around front...
RE: “She announced there was more than 17,000 people in attendance to cheers (17,026, according to numbers from the fire department provided to the campaign).”
Well, it looks like the enthusiasm for Bernie is similar to Trump’s.
It looks like we have a race then. The Capitalist vs. the Socialist.
The November 2020 election results will have a direct bearing on America’s future.
“But the crowd looks half asleep. All they are doing is raising the signs they were given and waving them around with little enthusiasm.”
A true Napoleon Dynamite moment?
I would expect nothing less. Seattle, Everett, Tacoma, Bremerton, dudden matter, they are ALL LIBERAL, HOMO LOVING, SOCIALISTS, COMMUNISTS, to the very max. I lived there 14 years after I retired from the Army. My wife’s family moved there in the 50s when she was 10. She saw Seattle go from a nice, family town, to the liberal hell hole it is now. That is why we moved down to my home of Alabama after she retired from Bank of America. She had started to hate that place with a passion!! We are happy here and would not go back there if Gates were to pay me. There is no amount of money that would draw me back to that cess pool. I still have a friend up there who was born and raised there, 58 years ago, and he hates it there now. He is still working and cannot leave. He said it gets worse every day. The state changing all the laws. High taxes. Drugs now legal in stores and the problems have exploded because of the marihuana sells. Seattle’s streets are filled with drugged people, drunks, dead beats taking a crap on the sidewalks. He said it stinks on the streets when you walk down town. Don’t doubt it. We left there in 2006. Damned glad we did!!!!!!!!
