Sen. Bernie Sanders delivers ranting speech at Coachella festival as Trump thrills UFC crowd with star-studded cast in Florida
SUMMARY
Sen. Bernie Sanders spoke at Coachella in Indio, California, opening for singer Clairo, while President Trump basked in cheers at UFC 314 in Miami’s Kaseya Center. The 83-year-old socialist addressed the crowd, pushing his tired talking points on Gen-Z voters. He slammed Trump—prompting boos—on climate change, billionaires, and healthcare, calling it a “human right.” Sanders praised Clairo’s advocacy for women’s rights and Gaza peace during her set. Meanwhile, Trump drew a packed crowd with UFC’s Dana White in Florida that night. Sanders’ Coachella speech wrapped his “Fighting Oligarchy” tour, hitting Tempe, Denver, and Los Angeles over three days. His remarks, tied to Clairo’s performance at the Outdoor Theater, pushed liberal causes to a fired-up audience. Trump’s electric Miami reception reaffirmed his pull, outshining Sanders’ blue-state rally as both flexed their bases.
