THIS IS A LETTER FROM SOMEONE WHO ATTENDED THE TRUMP RALLY IN DALLAS. A
LONG READ BUT WORTH IT. HOPE YOU ENJOY.

What is it REALLY like at a Trump Rally? It’s like nothing you could
ever imagine and it’s certainly not like anything portrayed in the
media. I was incredibly fortunate to be a volunteer at the Trump Rally
in Dallas last night, and I want to share with everyone the truth about
the these events. A Trump Rally is a beautiful symphony of gratitude,
love, appreciation and patriotism wrapped in organized chaos.
Let me address the organized chaos first, because this part is truly
incredible. By 2:45 pm, I overheard security talking to each other
reporting that from on the ground counts plus sky views via helicopter,
they estimated there were 16,000 people in line. Sixteen thousand of
anything is a lot, but these were 16,000 individuals, some who had
already spent the night outside the American Airlines Arena, others had
arrived before daybreak to stand in line. All the hundreds of
individuals I spoke with yesterday had already been standing or sitting
in line for 17 to 10 hours. No one was upset, frustrated or tired.
Around 2 pm security started adding in extra “lanes” for the increasing
crowds, so the people that had been sitting or standing all day were now
having to get up and move. Then, as I was moving through the crowds I
see the diversity of the people in line. ALL economic backgrounds were
represented including every other demographic: white, black, Hispanic,
Chinese, Korean, straight, gay, etc. All the little boxes the media like
to separate individuals into were present, but they were all patriotic
Trump supporters. There were a lot of young people (18-25), many late
20s to mid 30s. The majority were 35-55 age range with the second
largest age group being 55-75. However, I also met at least two dozen
amazing individuals who were 86-97 years old and they patiently and
eagerly waited in line over 14 hours to see President Trump.
There were couples, families, friends and co-workers there together,
waiting for hours in line with strangers at the beginning of the day,
but friends by mid day. They were helping each other move chairs and
coolers, sharing drinks, food and snacks, and friending each other on
social media platforms. How were all these individuals of various
backgrounds kept in line for over 18 hours until the doors opened to the
arena? You’d expect there to be a heavy security presence amongst the
lines, police intervening often and settling disputes. Here’s the thing
- they weren’t needed. There was a plethora of law enforcement at the
rally and arena and in the sky and on rooftops. But they didn’t have to
watch the 50,000 plus Trump supporters that showed up for the rally.
They kept a secure perimeter, monitored media (more on these idiots
later), kept the small amount of protestors that showed up away from the
crowds and mostly assisted for medical issues. And each time there was a
need for medical assistance, such as someone getting hot, tired or
dehydrated from standing in line, although the EMTs were quick to
respond, before they arrived, fellow Trump supporters in line who were
medical professionals would rush to them, assist and begin assessing
them in seconds so when EMT arrived minutes later, in most cases, the
individual had already been evaluated by a doctor or nurse. Trump
supporters took care of each other so there simply wasn’t an urgent need
for police to monitor the rally attendees.
As I walked through the lines and spoke with the attendees patiently
waiting they all had definitive personal reasons for why they support
President Trump. They weren’t regurgitating political talking points,
but told me what President Trump meant to them individually. While each
were different and unique, many had similar themes. Since I did not ask
for permission to share their specific personal stories - or even think
to ask at the time - I will share their general sentiments. They respect
his honesty and bluntness. His tweets do not offend them and they
appreciate the time and effort he makes to speak directly to the public.
They do not trust the media AT ALL. They are sad and disappointed that
they can’t trust anything they say, but they’ve come to terms with it.
They agree with President Trump that Nancy Pelosi is crazy. They think
Adam Schiff should be locked up. Another interesting recurring sentiment
is while they do not trust or respect any Democrats, they aren’t
particularly supportive of Republicans either. They trust Trump and
support his efforts and successes on draining the swamp, and they REALLY
want a big swamp draining.
Everything they talked about and shared were contrary to anything ever
reported by mainstream media. You don’t hear about these testimonies on
television nor do you read about them in newspapers or publications. I
have always wondered why it is that the media never share pro-Trump
interviews. Is it because they don’t want to be interviewed? It it
because they tried but their responses were inarticulate and not worthy
of publication? No to both of the above scenarios. These individuals are
very articulate, extremely knowledgeable and more than willing to
vocally speak up on why they unequivocally support President Trump. The
reason you won’t see it in media is because THEY IGNORE THEM! Less than
50 yards separated the media entrance to the main vein of the attendee
line. Less than 10 yards separated the press entrance from the VIP line.
I watched one media outlet after another walk right past thousands of
rally attendees without stopping once to interview anyone and went
directly into the building. They weren’t running late and didn’t have
time. Most had their cameras out and on their shoulders, they just
weren’t interested in filming the Trump supporters. It doesn’t fit their
narrative and radical left wing propaganda they are so dedicated to
promoting. Watching this unfold really put it into perspective how they
aren’t at all interested in reporting truth or what’s important to
viewers. They only care about transmitting information that fits the
narrative they’re selling.
I didn’t get into the arena until around 6:30 pm. The Trump Team
volunteers fortunately had a suite reserved so there wasn’t a rush to
find a seat. The place was packed floor to ceiling. Around 7:15 pm I
walked out of the suite which overlooked the entrance and there were
still people pouring into the arena.
At 7:42 pm, President Trump arrived and the cheering was so loud you
could feel it in your internal organs. It shook you physically and
emotionally in the most amazing way. I’ve watched several rallies on
television or live feed from YouTube and while you could get a sense of
the crowd response to certain things he would say, to witness it first
hand is completely different. When the crowd roars with applause, you
physically feel it. When he mentions the fake news media and the crowd
boos, the vibration is indescribable. I can state without any hesitation
that Trump supporters absolutely do not trust the media & they resent
them for lying to the public. I loved being there and watching the
20,000 plus crowd cheer, boo and then fall silent to listen to their
President speak. They love him, respect him and they trust him. Looking
in front of the stage where the VIPs were standing, I could see three
men close together with their arms around each other. They were veterans
and two of them were holding up their friend in the middle who was a
double amputee so he could see Trump. It was such a powerful image and
one I’ll never forget. A few times I found myself wiping away tears
because I was seeing and experiencing such beautiful moments that not
only warmed my heart, but strengthened my resolve. When President Trump
says the media and democrats are not fighting him, they’re fighting us,
he’s right. When he chose to run for President, he made a decision to
stand in between the corrupt politicians of the deep state and be our
gladiator to fight them off from destroying our country and the values
we hold so dear.
I’ve heard media pundits and ignorant politicians refer to Trump
supporters as a cult, as ignorant and that we blindly follow him without
knowing what we’re doing. That’s a flat out lie. Every single person I
spoke to was extremely knowledgeable and knew exactly what the truth was
and saw through every lie presented by the fake news media and the
politicians who only care about themselves. They don’t look at President
Trump as a god, but they love and respect him as a hero. They care about
him and his family and they pray for their health and safety. These are
people who cannot be bought, manipulated or swayed by lies. President
Trump awakened a sleeping giant. He has empowered a nation with truth,
honesty & keeping his campaign promises. Trump supporters believe in him
because he’s earned our respect. He’s fought for us, so he’s earned our
affection. He has made America great again in every sense of the phrase
and people have noticed. One of the things that I loved most about this
experience was the realization that in every city at every rally, tens
of thousands of supporters wait 10-24 hours just for the opportunity to
attend a free event to see and support President Trump. And anyone that
will do that, will certainly turn out to vote. Trump is unbeatable & any
candidate hoping to win any election needs to only say three words and
mean them to win any election, “I’m with Trump.” Because here’s the
truth, you’re either with us or against us and WE ARE WITH HIM!
