A FLORIDA man facing a $50-a-day fine for displaying a "Trump Won" banner outside his home is planning to add another controversial sign.
Marvin Peavy has said he will also add a "Let's Go Brandon" banner to his house – a phrase that's become synonymous with "F**k you Biden."
The phrases were merged this month with the circulation of a viral video in which a reporter covering a Nascar race misheard the crowd's anti-Biden chant as words of support for winning driver Brandon Brown.
Peavy found himself in hot water with officials in Walton County, Florida, last week when he was accused of violating signage regulations with the "Trump Won" banner erected outside his house.
The county's legal code states that political signs must be removed 15 days after the end of a political campaign.
Officials say Peavy's sign also violates another part of the code which prohibits residents in the 30A corridor, a scenic beachside route, from displaying "streamers, feather flags, pennants, ribbons, spinners and other similar devices" that could distract from the area's natural beauty.
The county has threatened to charge him a $50 fine for each day the sign stays up, beginning on October 25.
Peavy told the Northwest Florida Daily News he put up the banner to provoke "seaside liberals" and "the 1 percent leftists" – but asserted that it's "not political."

I was mistaken in thinking it was a condo.
And the billboards announcing countless things that can surely distract drivers, do they also pay a fine?
“he put up the banner to provoke “seaside liberals” and “the 1 percent leftists”
What is a 1% leftist? The 1% that are literate enough to understand his signs?
