Western suburb of Philadelphia PA.

It's a bit more blue then it used to be but there are a lot of Trump supporters, I'm surprised how many younger people( white working class} are for him. I chalk that up to racism. They fear their being replaced, I don't dare mention I'm on Social Security(semi retired).I've had those types snarl at me about taking "their" money.
People have had their cars keyed for having Biden stickers on. People who have the "Hate doesn't live hear" banners in front of their homes have had "TRUMP" marked or sprayed on.I do think more people are blue here but you don't wear it on your sleeve. This was a traditional republican stronghold.
