Bernie still drawing big crowds for political rallies. It suggests there's a real appetite to mobilize against DOGE and the Medicaid cuts that are currently slated to finance an extension of the Trump tax cuts.

Totally insane. First, a gym full of people. Then an overflow crowd. Then an overflow-overflow crowd, and an overflow-overflow-overflow crowd.

More than 9,000 people came out in Warren, MI to say NO to oligarchy &amp; NO cuts to Social Security, Medicaid, and VA programs. https://t.co/UfZdySWrw9

Warren, Michigan, population 136,000+, is right over the border from Detroit and home to a Stellantis truck manufacturing plant. I suspect this crowd drew from Detroit's younger and more progressive precincts as well as neighboring suburbs.

That said, I agree that none of Bernie's younger ideological allies is nearly as effective at communicating on class and drawing support outside of conventional left-wing strongholds.

Yeah, especially since he's been speaking in mainly rural places.  I just wish there was a younger Bernie who could actually run

Yes, and he's got a very simple formula (though his speeches are a little too long).

People are attracted to authentic passion in opposition to the MAGA agenda.

If Bernie had been allowed to run in 2016 and hadn’t been edged out by the Clintons, Trump would have 100% never had a first term. 

Crippling decision by democratic establishment

the replies are so telling of the amount of bots and type of person 😩

Need some young blood in there too though

Bernie could have succeeded as a president at some point, before we were a totalatarian oligarchy

Remember when they said Bernie was too old to be president… in 2015?
