"It's Pelosi!" People recognized my Halloween outfit.

My red coat, sunglasses, and brown bobbed wig were enough but my hands with extended arms clapping was the final touch for my costume. I live in a crowded, very blue neighborhood and everyone loved "Madame Speaker".

I didn't see any other political costumes though, did you?

I also had a "Lock Him Up" sticker on the back of my red coat (just in case there was any question). I am glad I didn't trip and break my neck wearing sunglasses at night.

they've had a stack of Melania face masks at the dollar store. Doesn't exactly look like they were flying off the shelves. Of course, this being Portland OR, that's not surprising.

My neighbor, who commutes to Manhattan, seemed to be amused by a tall Indian guy wearing a Trump wig.

Kinda' sorry I missed that.
