Yesterday at the dump…yes, we are our own garbage men… I was behind a pickup that was laden with garbage bags in the bed. He was alone so I decided to help him pitch the bags into the compressor bin.

Small talking, he mentioned that he bought along a few neighbors garbage too. Lots of Trump/Vance signs, a few old tattered trump flags. He said “Good Riddance” along with some unprintable expressions of disgust as he threw each one into the bin.
I kept my head down slinging bags into the bin. Truck was empty we shook hands as he thanked me, then helped with my load of three bags.

Yeah, he’s not all that popular anymore.

But a word of caution…this happened before around here…and he got elected again.

The permission structure still there that they can spew freely...but smart ones are editing and withholding I've noticed. Not as cocky as before. The MAGA enthusiasm IS wanning. But they'll all come home to vote R---if they bother to show up to vote.

Also homemade pro ICE signs, and Charlie Kirk memorial signs. Corner lot, and back yard faces a major street, so LOTS of exposure for his insane signs.


I am pretty sure his neighbors cannot wait until he expires.

Plus, EVERYBODY on this end of town (several thousand people) has to drive by his back and side yard, so they ALL see it.

He will die before taking that mess down.

Lots of drive by birds from lots of people. This is, after all, one of the premier bird watching locations in the US.

I see fewer and fewer Trump garb being worn and when I wear my Veterans Against Trump shirt, I'm getting quite alot of smiles, nods and outright praise for wearing it.

Unfortunately it doesn’t mean that they will vote for a Democrat. They probably still support Drumpf and Rs in general but are now more ashamed to admit it? We can hope that at best, they might stay home and not vote at all, which is still helpful.

I remember reports like this in 2024. He performs better than polling and anecdotal evidence shows.

and they have felt so lonely and isolated politically.

They are doing well socially, though.

I hope things change there politically.

but of the 5-6 I remember, only one is still flying. And actually, it's not a Trump flag but a Charlie Kirk flag. mourning the passing of a "hero." That replaced his Trump flag so I'm counting it as a Trump flag,

down in the near future. There’s a lot of military AD and retirees who I don’t think are keen on US troops putting their lives on the line for total bullshit.
