[Oregon] Tualatin couple gets nasty reactions over 'TRUMP' license plates: 'It's my last name'

TUALATIN, Ore. — A Tualatin couple has been subject to borderline harassment for displaying the last name of a presidential candidate on their cars' license plates.

Nine years ago Brian Trump ordered special Oregon vanity plates.

--SNIP--

The intimidating behavior by other drivers began about 18 months ago, Trump said.

"It took me a minute to figure out. I didn't cut this person off, [I] used my blinker, I'm not like driving crazy," Trump laughed. "Someone goes you're not a Trump supporter are you? And I was like, it's my last name!"

Trump says he made the connection, but continued to sport his plates.

"I've gotten a couple of thumbs up," he said. "But, it's generally the vulgar language, mean looks, flipping you off, that kind of thing has unfortunately been a lot more common."

Stand up or go put a pillow over your head. This man ( TRUMP) is the greatest American since George Washington. My sign is up and I pity the poor sobs that try to take it. It will go off bad.

These are Orwellian times....a self-loathing population that is getting invaded by millions of illegals & raped with taxes & a nut-case court ruling forcing the population to buy a product & they seek to attack a man willing to tell the truth about it...Donald Trump.

Portland makes San Francisco look like a Sunday School class. But it’s “transition to Marxism” like San Francisco’s is due to the influx of worthless Commie Turds from the East Coast thirty years ago or more. If we had really wanted to “save the country,” we sould have cut the East Coast loose back then. Now everyone wants to cut the West Coast loose because of the $hit migration here. Remember, good Commies like Babs Boxer and Nazi Pelosi came from places like New York City and Baltimore. Now, you folks in the Mountain States and the Midwest (with the exception of Chicago and Detroit, which have been Corrupto-Commie longer than anyone can remember) are, are getting this “effluent” from both Coasts.

I dislike Clinton with a passion. I’m not about to go cursing every Clinton supporter. That would be ridiculous. There aren’t enough hours in the day.

The Left is just ‘out there’, and it’s true that in many instances, what they accuse the Right of doing, is what they themselves are doing.

I’m sure that even after explaining, people will still try to kill him for having that as a last name.

Like having the last name Hitler to these people. Last name Kennedy ? You get everything. Last name Trump ? Start runnin’.
