Driving to work today, I passed an intersection outside of GMU w/ 4 Trump supporters* waving signs

asking supporters to honk. Sitting thru 2 cycles of the red light of the busy intersection**, there were zero honks.

* All elderly white women wearing red coats. 3 seemed angry and 1 seemed like she was undergoing rapture.
** Braddock Rd and Rt 123

It's one thing to vote for him but entirely another to show your face campaigning for him!

I see more Trump/Pence signs around. A few deplorable had some time on their hands last weekend, I see.

And visited Earth and could vote without knowing about any of the issues, Trumpers alone would make me want to vote HRC.

Its script is too tiny to read from the road. I need to walk by and snap a pic, because I am sure it is ROFL-worthy

I thought it was pretty nice they cared enough to make their own signs and up them up in their front window.

I've been stressed too. I can't wait for this to be over with already. I thought I'd share about the hand written pro-Hillary signs because I thought I was really nice. It was it a town that is pretty Republican too.

a few months ago had to head out to Suffolk County, Long Island and I saw a few Trumpers on the side of the road with their Hillary for Prison signs. I pretended to completely misread the sign as "hillary for President" and shouted YES HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT etc etc ..and they try to shout over me to correct me.....but that I promise you is a losing battle.

Can't say I am proud of my school, GMU, for its adherence to Chicago economics, ties with the Koch Brothers and adulation of Antonin Scalia, but the Biology department was awesome.

All these signs of local candidate were sprayed Cheetos name. This was in VALLEJO, CA. A multi racial area but with a lot of white male demographic who appeals to Cheeto. My husband works with a lot of blue collar union workers who have 1-3 hour daily commutes into SF. The long commuters are republican rabid supporters, the guys who live near SF are all democratic voters.

That's when you wake up and find everything you have stolen by the 1% except for the barrel they leave you to wear.
