Thousands of comments flooded the announcement of Bernie Sanders' tour coming to Nampa just a week ago. Some of them very happy to hear the iconic politician would be here. Others saying he wasn't welcome--among other far more rude and immature things.

Sanders didn't let the nay-sayers stop his visit--the 83-year-old Senator from Vermont not only drew a large crowd to his rally--but he packed the Idaho Center TO THE BRIM.

Not long after the event had started, the Ford Idaho Center had shared online that they were at capacity and would not be letting anyone else in for the rally.

Now, as Bernie Sadners' tour continues elsewhere across America--he's sharing a recap of his time in 'Red' Idaho, where most would have said he was wasting his time.

You can see the video that Bernie shared from his Idaho tour stop, below: 

Bernie Sanders called the 'Red State' and 'Blue State' terminology 'Nonsense' and the crowd cheered--he argued that he's for all people!

Over 12,000 Idahoans packed the house cheering and chanting for Bernie. Folks from all walks of life and all political parties were in attendance--Bernie, an Independent, has a unique draw.

While there were plenty of jabs at Donald Trump, Bernie Sanders also attacked America's Democratic Party. He's a peculiar guy because he really doesn't fit one mold. This is precisely why he runs (and wins) as an Independent in the Senate.

The following day, conservative commentator, Charlie Kirk was in Boise--while his crowd wasn't nearly as large as Bernie's, his visit was popular. It certainly felt like a political week in town.

Kirk was able to get everyone to agree on Ashton Jeanty, but that was about it. Take a look, below:
