    Huh. Interestin'. Let's hope that unlike the rioters, they can keep it to just driving around with flags after the election.

    I see that sort of thing on an individual basis all. the. time. around my area. Dudes in loud ass pickups with various flags. I'm glad I do. Contrary opinions expressed out in the open are what's keeping us from sliding further.

      Saw one just today.

      And it was a Lexus SUV. Flag on top, bumper stickers. Kind of freaked the boy out a bit.

      There was a parade of them maybe a month ago on a Saturday morning.

        Why should a Trump sign trigger the lad?

          I can see them being kind of freaky to others who aren't used to it. It's a matter of what you're used to seeing I think.

              It wasn’t the mere fact of a Trump sign, there are a few of those around here. It was the aggressive in-your-face nature of the big flags on the SUV.

                Those flags are commonplace here.

                  Bahahahahahaaaaa

                    As I said, I can understand that reaction. But there are also far more disturbing things going on.

                      Holy Shit! Last night I saw some guy putting 10 Biden Harris signs up. Half were on our common community property and half on the property of the local elementary school and polling place. I decided to get the Trump signs Karla had put up (signs aren’t my bag but they are Karla’s. this year). By the time I got over there last night the HOA had already pulled his signs down on our property but left the five on the school property, so that’s where I put Karla’s two. While I was out there two other guys came out and each put up a Trump sign. 5-4 m, frr err lt good about that.

                      I took the dogs out for their walk this morning. There are now 19 TRUMP/PENCE SIGNS VS THE ORIGINAL 4 BIDEN SIGNS!!!!!

                      Then, during the walk, a guy comes jogging past with a Trump banner and all the cars on the road were honking and waving... This could be interesting!

                        If nothing else, it looks as though Trump has cornered the George Costanza's dad vote.

                          Loudoun County used to be about 100% red.

                          It has gone straight down the tubes.

                          A comeback would be nice.

                            Well, this is going to shorten some lines:

                            The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                                I was approached and asked to remove my baseball cap. I then pointed out that it was a red Washingon Nationals Cap and not political in any way unless you are a Phillies fan. I then cast my vote while getting mean looks from a woman that looked suspiciously like my 11th grade honors English teacher.

                                I also talked to the Republican table out front and they were ecstatic with how many people were coming up to get sample ballots.

                                  @Copper @89th I just heard on WTOP that Democrats in Fairfax County did not really turn out for early voting or today. One poll watcher estimated under 60% of their 16 turnout.
