An estimated 1,000 Donald Trump supporters had already gathered in freezing temperatures Friday morning just hours before a scheduled 1:00 p.m. rally in Waterford Township, Michigan.

Citizen journalist Brendan Gutenschwager posted videos on Twitter of the line at 6:04 a.m. while it was still dark:

Another showed the crowd that had already eclipsed Joe Biden’s largest gathering:

Enthusiastic supporters chanted “USA!” outside Contact Aviation at the Oakland County International Airport.

According to Weather.com, it was 32 degrees at 8:00 a.m. and felt below freezing, but that did not seem to dampen the spirits of the Trump supporters.

Twitter user Michael Neff II posted a photo from the back of the Trump supporters line, revealing the large distance to the hangar:

The early afternoon rally will be the first of three for Trump on Friday. He will make additional stops in Green Bay, Wisconsin and Rochester, Minnesota.
