It’s much more subdued than I expected

If I see a political sign in someone's yard or a bumper sticker on their car of any GOP or Dem candidate, I immediately lose all faith in their intelligence. It's one thing to carry out a civil duty by voting for a major party candidate you perceive as the lesser of two evils but only a duped simpleton could openly "support" them. This is why we are seeing less and less political signs and bumper stickers. People are getting smarter.

Very good observation.

This thread caught my eye yesterday, so this morning I watched for signs of either candidate as I drove to work from Great Falls, VA to DC. I saw two Trump/Vance signs, both in Great Falls, plus two American flag signs (tell me you are voting for Trump without telling me) also in Great Falls. No signs at all in McLean. Then one Harris sign in Arlington, plus a "Hate Has No Home" and a "Black Lives Matter" sign, both in Arlington, which I assume are Harris voters. But five signs total is not very many. Perhaps it is just early and we will see more after Labor Day? Or perhaps nobody is proud of their candidate, and 99% are just voting against the other one?

You assume that flying an American flag implies Republican voter. You know what the saying is for making assumptions. As if only republicans are proud Americans, veterans, family of veterans, civil servants. Wow.

Well, it’s mostly true, safe to assume. Just as people flying pride flag or the Earth flag or global citizen flag are likely voting democrat. Neither assumption 100% but we all know there is a high accuracy to it.

I saw a Trump/Vance sign yesterday in PA, and the "Vance" part was in a much smaller font, which seemed odd.

I too mostly seen Trump signs that aren't easily replaced -- huge and up high, and often painted on the side of a barn/shed/garage.

There are also some huge, painted-on "F*ck Joe Biden" signs, which I assume won't get updated, in Upstate New York (go, coastal elites!)

My neighbors fly the American flag and I know for a fact they are democrats.

Same here. The democrats have not conceded the American flag to MAGA. sorry but absolutely not.

You can generally say that, if they fly the Confederate flag, they are Republicans.

sure, in the fake world that Democrats are unsuccessfully peddling, in which President Trump and all his followers are Nazi's, white supramacist monsters, so it would fit the narrative for Republicans to fly confederate flags on their front lawn. But in the real world, I have not seen many Confederate flags lately. And, if you go back and read history, the Confederates were Democrats and Lincoln was a Republican.
