In the last few weeks, when driving through NW MO, Kansas, and NE MO, a lot of tRump signs are gone.
But I've noticed a few new ones. And on what would usually be a pleasant drive on country roads, there is still the ugly sight of numerous tRump flags.
Yesterday, on Hwy 17, I passed a farm which had two 12 X15 Trump//Pence signs. One was attached to the fence on each side of the entrance gate. Not that uncommon, but what I noticed was that they had taken the time to use a can of spray paint to completely black out "pence". On both signs. If it hadn't been snowing so heavily, I would have turned around and gotten a pic.
Something has got to be done about the media that is programming these people like cult members.

(51,280 posts)I was wondering how the republicans were reacting to hearing that Pence was doing his constitutional duty in an admirable way ...
It is becoming clear they dont want to think about that.

It saddened me because the rural people of that area had always struck me as "salt of the earth" and kindly, sincere people. But, it clearly doesn't take much to bring them into the cult, under the guise of "religion" and grievance, it appears.
