Is having a "Trump for President" bumper sticker and being a progressive mutually exclusive?

[Tommy_Carcetti]

Some guy handed me a "Trump for President" bumper sticker and told me to put it on my car. I've heard from some people that it might increase the value of my car, but am I compromising my values in doing so?

1. IMO hell yes!

Trump strikes me as the anti-Bernie.

8. Go back to under the bridge

troll.

[MineralMan]

3. You have played the Trump card once too often,

in my estimation.

[MFM008]

4. Don't do it

There are people out there waiting to deface them.

5. I think you're just blowing smoke

7. Chortle.

16. or rolling in something...

6. I don't recommend any type of bumper sticker because...

... it might result in vandalism to your car. I also don't think they're very effective to sway people.

If Trump wasn't so bigoted and crazy in many ways, and if he didn't reveal his pro-wealthy agendas recently, there's parts of his rhetoric that strike me as "progressive" in some ways -- e.g., his warnings about "free trade" deals, speaking out against the influence of money in politics, etc. Some of it reminds of stuff that Noam Chomsky and others have been rightly been warning Americans about for quite awhile.

10. You can always just jump out of the car at every stop light and scream, "I don't know where that

came from...HONESTLY! Someone must have put it there when I was drunk!...Or something""

11. ROFL

12. A Trump bumper sticker would increase the value of your car?? Would a Trump yard sign increase the

value of a home?

[No Vested Interest]

13. The worst is when those bumper stickers remain on years after the

election.
I detest seeing Bush-Cheney bumper sticker (mostly on trucks).

So far I don't know if I've seen any Trump bumper stickers yet, although a Ben Carson bumper sticker lives about a block from me.
I tell my kids to stay far away from that car, because, clearly, the driver could not be very smart.

In my very Republican area, I've only seen one Trump yard sign, and more recently, a Rob Portman yard sign.
Cincinnati.com says there is virtually no Trump organization in Hamilton County.

My neighbor has two Hillary signs - she is known to have strong opinions.

14. Yes.

[FSogol]

15. LOL. Brilliantly done.

[Donald Ian Rankin]

17. Is there a backstory to this that I'm missing?

[Tommy_Carcetti]

18. It may have been MIRTed.

Unfortunately.

21. See this thread:

As Tommy expected, they got MIRTed (I think both the hidden posts above were theirs).

25. funny, I would have thought "rolling coal" was an obscure sexual metaphor.

learn something new every day, I guess.

[Mendocino]

29. Yes, same one.

What they call in Michigan; a lower peninsula person. That is below the bridge, a troll.

19. With a nod on the satire in the OP, I'm actually considering a Johnson bumper sticker

Not because I really support him, but it might be useful to try to encourage conservatives dubious of Trump in the belief that Johnson is a better use of their vote.

20. I assume this is a joke

Speaking of bumper stickers, I love your signature. Do you sell bumper stickers and political memorabilia? If not, would you mind if I made a bumper sticker with that slogan?

[Tommy_Carcetti]

23. Certainly...

.....although the original credit for it goes to DUer Qutzupalotl.

[democrattotheend]

24. Gotcha, thanks

I will put a shoutout in the product description.

[Mendocino]

22. I'm thinking of getting a hood and sheets,

crossing a social workers picket line, fracking my backyard, start watching Alex Jones and buying an AK-47 with filed off serial numbers. Would this damage my lib cred?

[Jim Dandy]

26. Uh, yeah

Kinda like having shit on your shoes has anything to do with cleanliness.

[onecaliberal]

27. If you want everyone to know you live in dumbfuckistan.

[Agnosticsherbet]

28. Yes

[gratuitous]

30. Hold on, I have to check with Third Way Manny

He says only if the bumper sticker isn't made by child laborers in Malaysia.

[Initech]

31. He might as well have told you to put speedholes in your car.
