Via Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
"Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back.
This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008.
Also bigger than the 2024 DNC.
And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too)."
@Bellison22 Whether you like #BernieSanders or not (and I get it that some people don't and never will), he and #AOC have tapped into an urgent, grassroots energy here, an energy that #Democrats desperately need and that #ChuckSchumer, #HakeemJeffries and all their consultants have no clue about.
@BruceMirken @Bellison22 @skry I mean, ‘consultants’ kinda says it all, eh?
@octothorpe @Bellison22 @skry Not really. I work as a communications consultant (not for any party or partisan campaign), but I like to think I have a clue. There is a certain class of Dem consultants, however, still wielding a lot of influence but stuck in about 1995.
