Stepdaughter and kids live in Cedar Run, southern N.J.

South Jersey, below 195 is Trump territory. It is (was) Eagles country.

Anyways, last month I went to granddaughter's promotion ceremony. I was taken aback when the principal made reference to the Eagles winning the Superbowl. The audience booed the Eagles.

There are new Trump billboards in parts of southern N.J.

Good for you...more people need to speak up! BigmanPigman Jul 2018 #1
