Trump Prepares Massive Rally in Vermont

January 7, 2016 · 10:19 am ET · 49 Comments

Donald Trump’s campaign has reportedly distributed about 20,000 free tickets for an event in Burlington, VT at a theater that seats only about 1,400, the Burlington Free Press reports.

“Vermonters who plan to see Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump speak on Thursday should prepare for ‘airport-like’ security and sizable crowds after the campaign issued tickets for more than 10 times the number of available seats.”

NBC News: “The Trump campaign’s effort to turn out huge lines of supporters outside the event is no subtle signal to Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders.”
