American Flags Are The Trump Signs His Supporters Are Scared To Put Up

Yup. A good part of it (IL) would like to secede from the Cook County crooks.

Related: One cannot wear “electioneering” clothing at a polling place. So, instead, I wore my “Proud American” (with flags and an eagle) t-shirt to the polling place today. One judge was sort of eyeing me, but said nothing.

Well, I suppose that she might have thought I was cute. ;-)

At The Federalist, in the past three years our requests for author anonymity have skyrocketed, and editors at other conservative publications say the same is happening to them. People are scared to out themselves as conservatives.

“Almost one‐​third (32 percent) of employed people say they worry they could get fired or miss out on job opportunities if their political views became known,” says Cato pollster Emily Ekins in a discussion of the poll cited above. “…Sixty percent (60 percent) of Republicans and 49 percent of Independents with post‐​graduate degrees fear being penalized at work if their political opinions became known, compared to 25 percent of Democrats with post‐​graduate degrees.”

Just wait until the "...can't buy or sell without the number..." kicks in!

I've a life-sized Jordan silhouette jamming into the net on the barn wall that has the basketball goal.

In his other hand I've an American flag in a holder.

What’s with NH and Vermont being so liberal?

You guys have got some beautiful countryside up there.

Any other FReepers stopped in to see Lenny the Moose up in Maine?

Bingo

In 2016; I was given the option of removing or covering my Vote for Pedro shirt.

What’s with NH and Vermont being so liberal?

Vermont went democrat in 1964, when Hoff was elected governor, the first democrat since the Civil War.

The was due to the invasion of hippies from NY, CY, MA and elsewhere and indoctrination in some of the schools and most of the colleges and universities.

I am an 8th generation Vermonter, a refugee in NH of over 40 years.

NH used to be very conservative, as Vermont was.

We have also had an influx from MA, RI, CT and NY, but not all of them are bad.

Some are conservative/libertarian.

Then there are the natives, some of which were in paper company unions, who were indoctrinated by the unions and of course the indoctrination throughout our education system now.

... the indoctrination throughout our education system now.

At least our kids were not taught to sing praise songs about Obama; Right??

I’m surprised western Michigan would have more Biden signs. I’m in a metro Detroit suburb and I see far more Trump signs. I’ve also seen a lot more American flags go up since the election.

My neighbor and her extended family all voted for Biden. When I asked her why, she said, “Universal health care.” Then she added, “It doesn’t matter how much good Trump does if he’s a bad person. Why would I vote for someone who is good at their job if they kill puppies in their free time?”

I’m not sure I can talk to her anymore.
