**When I go east of Snohomish river the tRump signs get thick. Rural America has many racist ideas/mores. 🙄🙄🙄

1. my dad would have killed me

he was a Depression era survivor, dirt poor, and detested any kind of belittling other people

2. I thought Monroe had become a Seattle bedroom community

I lived there 40 yrs ago and the last time I drove thru it was unrecognizable.

3. Still lots of trumpers.

They are loud and proud and the signs are big. Ain’t no tiny yard sign, nope.

It is rural still. Just connected by 522 and more houses and retail explosion. People moved out there because it was cheaper. I imagine there are many liberal minded people because of the relatively easy commute to places like Bothell, Kirkland and Bellvue.
