Trump had a rally in Phoenix, AZ, last night, and it was another HUGE turnout. Unlike the Democrats running for President, Trump can actually draw a crowd.

This was everyone outside, just hoping to get in or spend some time with like-minded conservatives. It is hard to be conservative in this political climate. We are told to sit down shut up and let the Democrats handle everything. Well, we allowed that when Obama was president and our country went to hell in a handbasket. Look at all the Trump supporters that made it inside.

I am genuinely in awe of this. This is a movement beyond what anyone could have expected. As we saw the Democrats devour each other at the Democratic debate last night, Trump was busy talking about the issues that plague the American people.
Among the people that were lucky enough to get admittance inside the stadium was a WW2 veteran named Ervin Julian. He is 100 years old and served in the United States Navy.
This happened at the @realDonaldTrump rally in Phoenix. Lots of teamwork here. These men carrying a World War II veteran to his seat. Got to admit I got a lump in my throat pic.twitter.com/E8vV8gthQn

I MEAN!! If you don’t at least get a tickle in your throat and some goosebumps after watching that, you need to get your heart checked. This man served our country and has seen a lot in his 100 years, and this is the President he has chosen to support. These men were lovingly carrying him to his seat in front of an estimated 20,000 people.
If you thought Trump and his family were going to let this go unnoticed, you are wrong.
President @realDonaldTrump thanked a World War Two Veteran during the rally: "I asked my son @DonaldJTrumpJr to get a couple of hats and get some things and give them to Irvin right now, and I want to thank you." pic.twitter.com/cyFiDV4Lk2

It wasn’t enough to thank this man for his serving his country. Trump called him out in front of the entire rally, and the men who carried him to his seat lift him once more for the standing ovation.
Trump: “They say he is a legitimate great hero of WW2. Ervin Julian, thank you!”
*Crowd chants USA! USA!*
“And I asked my son Don to get a couple of hats and get some things and give them to Ervin right now. And I want to thank you really that’s a great honor and thank you for the great job you’ve done. An American patriot, thank you very much.”
How could anyone say that this movement is built on hate? Look how happy and kind everyone is in the crowd. Next time you have time, watch a Bernie rally. At Bernie rallies, you see some intermittent smiles, but for the majority, all faces look solemn and sad. Donald Trump was accused of running a fear-mongering campaign in 2016, but those fears were real. The Democrats thought they could use the same play; the difference is that American families are better off now than they were four years ago, and the Democrats cannot convince us that we aren’t.
