Long lines in Topeka for Trump MAGA rally

So what's news?

Nothing.

It'a phenomenon sweeping the nation. In Topeka people were waiting hours in the rain and the cold for the chance to see their president.

And the weird thing is nobody is screaming, nobody is protesting, everybody is mentally balanced and sane and pleasant.

The crowd is emotionally settled. There are no disputes, the collective vibration hums like a whale pod at rest, it is relaxed and mature.

Except wardrobe choices all around. That's the part I don't understand. There is no energy there.  It is a vibrational void. No reading to take. Flatlined. Everyone shops the same place, and buys the same things. Scanning the whole group, there is not an individual style to be seen. No one even individualizes their hat as political people do with political buttons, no one makes their Make America Great Again hat great. No one sews flaps on them to cover their ears, no one lines them with flannel, no one attaches a light to them, no magnifying glass attached to a MAGA hat, no stripes, no flames, no detailing, no dingleberries around the brim, no cartoons, no patches, no water mister attached, no motorized propeller. Nothing upgraded. No one puts money into wardrobe. It's simply not a value. Trumpland is the same place as Walmart, the same vibration as a hospital waiting room.

Yet they are vast. They are legion. This is their entertainment. Better than anything. Just waiting in line and not getting in is their event. They seem fine knowing they're not getting in. So what. It's still their community event. Their president came to town and they all went to see him.

It blows my mind.

In terms of wardrobe, the you seek is functional. These people do not need to make a statement.

everybody is mentally balanced and sane and pleasant.

These are the people who work for a living. Who abide by the rules. They know the drill and they follow it because it's the civilized thing to do.

Man, those people are dressed for winter! Keep that weather out there - I am enjoying summer over here.

I saw one of those lines when he was running against Clinton. The auditorium he spoke at was SRO, the biggest crowd ever for that building. Obama appeared at the same auditorium twice when he was running and didn't draw nearly as many.

I was in that line. I got there, around 10:30 and stood until they opened the doors. It was worth it.

I'm wondering how many in that crowd grew up with the story of David and Goliath which involves a side story about Samuel the Prophet who had God's ear or vice versa, receiving the following message regarding what matters most when looking for king material:

But the Lord said to Samuel, “Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The Lord does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.

Stability, saneness and pleasantness tend to flourish when one grows up in an environment where the heart is regarded as valuable.
