To appear “fair” Trump wanted to have a Cruz size rally, hence the selection of this venue. He’ll still be a few hundred high, though.

But, but, Cruz can pack a meeting room or small classroom.

Go find the vendors, suppliers and employees who got screwed when 4 businesses he controlled filed Bankruptcy.

How many businesses under Donald Trumps control have never filed for bankruptcy?

Trump is correct, he has never filed for bankruptcy. Corporate Bankruptcy and Personal Bankruptcy are two different things. His corporation’s 4 bankruptcies were a way to reduce debt and had to give up significant shares of the properties in question as a result.

They were all Chapter 11 restructurings, which lets a company stay in business while shedding debt it owes to banks, employees and suppliers.

Those commies up in Burlington must be fried that The Donald is coming there. They grabbed up all the tickets to make sure his supporters didn’t get them.

Am I reading this wrong?

the "commies" didn't grab the tickets - Trump Did - handing out far more than capacity - to keep HIS rivals from getting in -

Does anyone know if the tickets cost ?

The commies DID grab the tickets and said that they would boycott by not attending, and the venue would appear to be empty.

Smart move on Trump’s part.

Just saw this on Drudge that Bernie Sanders supporters are flooding the venue with ticket requests to get as many as they can. So they cannot show up and Trump has a lot of empty seats at the venue.

There will be more than enough Trump supporters to make up for that.

Yes debt is shedded, but not all. There is still repayment, but typically at a lower cost. You don’t know the details of the bankruptcy agreements so you don’t know what the initial debt amounts where, the repayment options, and what losses were taken on each side.

Trump needs to redo his speech it is the same everywhere


He’s consistent. He’s on message. He’s on target. (Unlike Jeb whose multitudinous consultants are still trying to come up with a campaign slogan).

Does the gang at Faux News know about this? If not it CAN’T be true.

The speeches are each different, because Trump tosses in current events. Yes the core of it is the same. Your platform is what you are there to hawk, and you’re going to do it for everyone you meet.

Who knew?

Wait a minute...Vermont? In Bernie's adopted hometown? Are they offering Cabot Cheese and Ben & Jerry's as gifts?

Seriously, Vermont is not as wacky as Sanders make it look like. Vermonters are mostly libertarian...( find a few cars on the side of the road, and you'll know they are skinny dipping at a swimming hole.
