Oh https://www.history.com/news/why-is-purple-considered-the-color-of-royalty The color purple’s ties to kings and queens date back to ancient world, where it was prized for its bold hues and often reserved for the upper crust. The Persian king Cyrus adopted a purple tunic as his royal uniform, and some Roman emperors forbid their citizens from wearing purple clothing under penalty of death. Clothes made from the dye were exorbitantly expensive - a pound of purple wool cost more than most people earned in a year - so they naturally became the calling card of the rich and powerful.

It surely couldn't be they are trying to send the message of unity red + blue = purple.
Nope, must be something cynical and divisive. |

Michelle obama looks flattering as always with that bowl cut and that dress that reminds one of Edward Scissorhands

Blue + Red = Purple - Its a not so subtle reference to the fact that there's no difference between the two political parties since both are united in their values, to benefit the rich and powerful. There's been consensus for a while now

We have just been conquered by the purple communist color revolution. The violent revolutions we used on other countries all had a color name.

It probably has something to do to show support for blm. Delta’s employees can now choose to wear a purple uniform to support blm. (Gag)

Does anyone remember when Hillary and her team all appeared in purple the day after Trump's 2016 victory? I think there's some kind of code

Since the days of the Byzantine Empire, purple was the color of kings/royalty.
It's also signifies a successful "purple revolution" that was initiated when Herr Hitlery and Bubba wore purple when Sunkist was inaugurated four years ago. |

Purple is a mix of blue and red (colors of both political parties) they are wearing it to show there has never actually been 2 sides. It’s all the same party in the end.
