Crowd size isn’t necessarily a perfect predictor of political success, but there’s a reason Donald Trump consistently lies and brags about his attendance numbers. Massive crowds can be a real gauge of enthusiasm. They can show how well a message is resonating. And as Warren works her way up the polls, it’s clear that what she’s saying resonates.

“When you see a government that works great for the rich, that works great for the wealthy and the well-connected and is not working so well for everyone else, that is corruption, pure and simple,” she told the crowd.

Most corporations today are run by Far Left Progressive Democrats.

I'm rooting for Warren, actually. Maybe I'll vote for her in the primary.

Democrats have become the non-worker's party.

Free trade deals that destroy US industries are no problem because they simply manufacture in China and Mexico and sell in the US.

Taxes are no problem because the wealthy receive from government far more than they pay and the mooches on the lower end don't do anything (like work) to encounter them.
