Where Were the Trump/Pence 2016 Signs and Bumper Stickers? (Silent Deplorables?)

I live in a Republican dominated suburb of the great State of Texas and never saw a Trump/Pence 2016 yard sign. I never saw a Trump/Pence bumper sticker. Were we all Deplorables and not advertising the fact? The quiet majority that stayed hidden this election season.

I had a Trump sign (Columbus, Georgia). There were several in the neighborhood. Plenty throughout the city. I gave them out. The loocal party took all the remaining unsold signs and put them up Monday night all over the place. I may wind up on clean up duty in a few days.

I got our bumper sticker and yard sign free from our local Trump HQ. Put a magnetic backing on the sticker (they have magnetic sheets at Hobby Lobby)so we could switch it around on our cars and put it on/off when going to the grocery store. Silly, but it works.

“We didn’t want to have our car keyed or our house burned down.”............

There were a lot of Trump/Pence signs in our rural area small town and very few Hitlary signs. That said, I used to post numerous Republican candidate signs but NO MORE. (The REPUBLICANS are the fault). Fortunately, most people in our area are civilized enough to respect who you or I support but there is no sense in tempting fate.

I live in the 47th ward in Chicago. Not one Trump sign. Where in Cook do you live? I gotta move there!

The sad thing is, but for the NeverTrumpers he would have won Nevada, Colorado, and New Mexico and we could have gone to bed at 11. It may seem petty but how many millions of us sat and got PO’d increasingly for FOUR HOURS knowing that? That is one heck of a lot of rage.

Indeed. I felt so stifled when we lived there. Rarely spoke my mind to avoid being berated.

I live in a outer Southwest Austin neighborhood, which is rapidly turning into a lib neighborhood. No signs for us Trump supporters as we did not wish to have our homes vandalized. I cannot wait to leave this libtard town.

Orland Park. It was fun to see all the Trump signs. The Hilary for Prison signs make me smile.

Same here. Granted we live semi-rural conservative small town, but most drive into Memphis to work. That is dem stranglehold full of BLM’s, Crips, Bloods, and illegals.

I didn’t put on a bumper sticker this election for fear of people screwing around with my car.

I do wear my MAGA hat when I’m feeling froggy though.

Our community was running in “stealth mode” this election. I didn’t see many signs for Trump or Clinton.....

Lots of votes but the only trump signs in my neighborhood were those of my corner LEO neighbor. Trump signs, his USMC flag, her USN flag, and a memorial and photos of recently lost heroes. While it would be foolhardy for anyone to disturb his property, their family continues to do the work and take the risk for others.
