We are staying overnight in Fayetteville, coming into town from the south, we drove down a main thoroughfare, and there were vote for Jed Duggar signs all over the place. This led to me giving my esposo  a TED talk  about the Duggars and all things Duggarville! He now knows for certain that I am crazy-

oh I wish you had of snapped a pic... for a random curious internet person

Were there any Megan Godfrey signs?  I’m curious...

I don’t have a pic of that, but the one I do have might entertain you. In my neck of the woods Trump folk keep their signs behind electrified fences.

I don't know whether to laugh or be horrified... I think I am both...

Anyone seeing Jesus 2020 signs? Or is my area just blessed?

Did not see any of those. Lots of Mark Scalise signs, who is running for District Judge-

Yeah, can anyone from NWA comment on what kind of a campaign he’s running? His Instagram shows no recent activity related to campaigning. I’m curious why he would run and then seemingly put in very little effort. He could be canvassing and meeting with local political, business and religious groups every day and not be posting about it on social media. 

I’m from NWA and I haven’t heard aaaanything about his campaign. I still have FEW connections with the Duggars and have not even heard much through the grapevine. ??‍♀️

This is true, though. The main highway through Springdale has Jed Duggar signs all down it as of late. But mostly at used car dealerships (there are a LOT on that road) or maintenance shops.

There's one in my neighborhood and I live in a large city in the Midwest.  Im trying to remember what the other signs in that yard said...no presidential signs...maybe just a sign promoting a church? I'll have to walk the dogs that way tomorrow and check ? but I remember walking past thinking "well that anti-capitalist won't be on the ballot being that he was, you know, the victim of police brutality and all but ooooookay!"

My favorite sign is one the says "any functioning adult 2020"

The signs we have around here say "thank you Jesus" 

 

[Bluebirdbluebell]

Where I am there a lots of signs. Trump supporters tend to have flags that say Trump.

[mstee]

We had a nearby house with the “any functioning adult” sign for close to a year now and I loved it but I drove by their house the other day and they have a Trump flag and sign. Wtf ?

The Trump flags here are even more prominent than the signs. Ugh

I have to laugh at "Keep America Great."   It took the Trump campaign and the base waaaaaaay to long to snap to the fact that "Make America Great Again" was a huge self own.

I see occasional "Giant Meteor 2020" bumper stickers.

Where I am no yard signs, which are probably prohibited by the HOA (Florida over 55 community) but tons of Trump flags and window signs (and decorated golf carts, Confederate flag optional). I went a town over to buy some plants today and the woman had a Biden/Harris sign on her lawn. I wanted to kiss her (but we evil socialists wear masks).

It drives me insane that people still find displaying the Confederate Flag to be acceptable.

[Ash]

At this point, IMO, displaying the Confederate flag is more of a fuck you than anything else.

Especially since they aren't from the South. Used to see them at houses in Sussex County, NJ, also, which is a pretty long way from Dixie. And makes the intended meaning quite clear.

Someone in my neighborhood has a handmade sign that reads "SLEEPY JOE HIDDEN" and "WHERE IS HUNTER". The "N" in "Sleepy Joe Hidden" appears to actually be an upside down W. Every time we pass it on our walks, my mom gives it the finger.

I pass a house that has no less than 5 Trump/blue lives matter flags and several signs in their yard. I wish God would let me call down fire just once.

Me neither. Thanks for asking. Who is Hunter?

Not really a play on words, just  Trump and his supporters being assholes. “Sleepy Joe” is Trump’s attempt to make fun of Joe Biden for being old even though they are only three years apart in age, and “Where’s Hunter” is a reference to Hunter Biden, Joe Biden’s son, who Trump accuses of benefiting from nepotism.  Trump also went after Hunter Biden for having substance use disorder. Basically, the only thing Trump can come up with to criticize Biden are things that Trump and his family do themselves.

Yeah, it's not really very clever at all. If they had spelled it as "Sleepy Joe Hiding" or "Sleepy Joe Hiden" (pronounced like Biden), it would've worked better. But again, they're using an upside down W as an N, so. Not America's best and brightest.

Also, IIRC, they added the "Where's Hunter" part after the debate, during which Trump was basically like, "Haha, your son (who lost his mother and sister in a tragic accident at a young age) did drugs." If Biden's son were constantly out on the campaign trail, it would just fuel the fire of the nepotism accusations, but since he's just continuing to live his life like a normal person, clearly that means he's in hiding for nefarious anti-Trump activities. It's all so stupid. Just because Trump's three oldest children are all uniformly awful and love to be in the spotlight nearly as much as their father doesn't mean all politician's kids are like that. Frankly, I would love if I never saw Ivanka, Eric, or Don Jr again in my life (unless, of course, I saw them get led into a jail for the rest of their lives).

When we were in Michigan on vacation in 2015, my son kept saying that he couldn't shake the feeling that Michigan was like the South.  As I was telling him he was crazy, what drives by us but a Ford F350 pickup towing a mud-covered Jeep....with a  large Confederate flag flying in the back.  Which is really weird because Michigan fought for the Union in the Civil War and is nowhere near the South.  I guess flying Confederate flags really is a thing in some parts of Michigan because Chasten Buttigieg, a Michigan native, even mentions it in his book.

The only one of Trump's kids I actually feel sorry for is Barron.  He's a minor and didn't request to be brought into this mess.   I also feel for Tiffany to some extent because she only seems to show up when she absolutely has to.
