For the past 2 years, there has been a Trump store in a nearby strip mall. I hardly ever saw people going in and out.
Well, I went by the strip mall today, and it's shut down and long gone. It put a big smile on my face. No more Trump shit all over the windows, etc.
It has to be a sign. And I don't think it's because he's on his last term.
It just has to be a sign. Like perhaps "better things are coming".
Almost 1 year from the midterms.
We need to take the house, senate and impeach him out of office.
(I would think it's on someone's plate already)

I would think businesses in that area are back to normal traffic.

Hold strong. The death throws of a wannabe dictatorship might be as painful as a real one's.

Hopefully that'll be enough for them not to do it again.

(16,535 posts)seem to have lost their trumpers. No more of that swag splattered all over the listings. Somewhere there's a garage or two stuffed with merch that ain't going nowhere, I almost feel sorry for them. Almost.

Anyways, he is not voting for the N.J. Republican governor candidate because the candidate is anti-abortion. "Fuck him."
