Why are there so few Trump signs in DC, given all the conservatives who live and work here?

Why don't you Trumpera move to the South or to other Red States where you'll feel safe around the other backwater, lowly educated hicks.

My neighbor has a lighted and monitored Trump sign in his front yard. Billboard size.

Good for him. It's a free country.

+1 It's going to be close

+2, no way I’d put a sign out, so my house and cars can be vandalized!

This forum is FILLED with posts by people literally BRAGGING about how they key cars with Trump bumperstickers or would throw rocks through the windows of houses in their neighborhoods that put up a Trump sign.

And you’re asking “why” there aren’t any Trump signs???

You’re either a troll or you’re as dumb as post.

+3. People have gone completely around the bend because Trump. Just look at the climate here. People routinely advise divorce, cutting off family members or friends, and having Trump supporters fired from their jobs. It’s nuts and extremely toxic. One hopes the fever breaks soon.

“People routinely advise divorce, cutting off family members, and having Mussolini/Franco/Pinochet/Castro/Tito supporters fired from their jobs.”

Correct. Just like the supporters of other autocrats who have harmed people, supporters of Trump should expect similar lack of respect.



Back to point of thread:

WHY can’t Trump supporters justify their values? Why are they unable to defend themselves in public?

That’s the key question. And it comes down to defending the indefensible.

What’s great about living in DC is being surrounded by a lot of DC citizens who are educated about life and politics and force Trump supporters to justify their poor decisions. Which they can’t.

It’s nice to be a DC citizen.

Bahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

This provided me with a great laugh for the day. Thank you for that!

Do you even hear yourself? How does your “reject hate” lawn sign match up to that vitriol? Don’t you understand that it this mentality that caused Trump to be elected in the first place?

And honey, a “backwater, lowly educated hick” vote counts just as much as yours does.

Jeff Flake and Max Boot hace claims to be anti-Trump. Now Republican today has that- they support Trump, even if it’s useful for them publicly to say they don’t support Trump.

Can you reword this in a language that we can understand, because you may be making an interesting point.

I don't have one of those lawn signs, so please don't assume that you know me or know my views.

I just love seeing how snowflake Trumpers are.

We have since had hate mail in our door and my boss told me someone in our neighborhood reached out to him via LinkedIn to warn him he hired a racist (aka me). Turns out he is also a republican and told me who reached out. Yes, I emailed the person and let them know I found out. So there is no question why people don’t put signs up. We don’t like to be harassed.

This cannot be the case since the Democratic Party is the party of bumper stickers, which all seem to read “COEXIST.”

I don't tolerate many things. Maybe you do. But that just makes you stupid.

I love that the trump supporters are throwing a fit. They're SCARED. Maybe if they put up this resistance when their uncle slept with them we'd have a better population. Oh? Are the snowflakes offended? Did I trigger you?

I'm looking forward to being as nasty as the right wing is. I used to care about them and their sn kids. Nope, not anymore.

In states that tend to have high Cook PVIs for either Democrats or Republicans, it is very difficult for those on the opposite end of the spectrum to voice their opinions out in the open.

+1 Look at what happened to these Biden supporters in Tennessee:
“Residents of a Tennessee town are on edge after Ku Klux Klan propaganda was found scattered in the yards of homes with political signs expressing support for Joe Biden.

“I was really startled by it and also kind of scared,” Shelbyville resident Breana Green told WPLN News of the moment she noticed a neighbor’s yard littered with 20 “business cards” purporting to be from the white supremacist hate group.

The cards described a “social visit” from the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan and warned, “don’t make the next visit a business call.”

Because Trump torched the the thin veneer of acceptability that Republicans hid behind for years — the polite fiction of "small government and personal responsibility" that racists and misogynists pretended to believe in. Now it's clear what they really stand for and many are uncomfortable admitting it.

I’ve seen none of those, but Republicans are desperately trying to whitewash their support for Trump.

Remember 52 Senators voted to allow his corruption.

The best example is probably Miles Taylor, who signed off on tearing kids away from their parents and is now trying to bill himself as not supporting Trump.

Miles Taylor? Are you kidding me? Anonymous? What a joke—the guy CNN hired and who didn’t sign off on anything? That Miles Taylor? Take deep breath, have a light whiskey and soda, and relax.
