maga reader board malfunction

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by Emile (a host of the The DU Lounge forum).

On the road into town there stands a ground-level flashing reader board. It is blank during the day and lights up after dark. The board, I believe, is supposed to read "God Bless Trump" on one side and on the other "Have A Nice Day."

When we drove past it the other evening the sign read "God Bless Tr_mp" and the other side read "Have A _ Day". Seemed like a comment on his presidency.

Ironically, a half-mile further on, a local 73-year-old lifelong resident has put up a sign atop his small wind tower. The sign reads "RESIST."

take a cell phone picture of the reader board. Then again, I might have been ambushed and kidnapped by a mega patrol!
