Trump Weird News - 2024 Election Yard Signs Plus

[chaddavisphotography]

A "Cats for Kamala" yard sign in South Minneapolis, Seen less than a month away from the 2024 Presidential election.

I'm not entirely sure what changed, but over the past week or so my area (the WOW counties of Wisconsin - ie the 'heartbeat of the Republican party') has gone from like 95% Trump lawn signs to 90% Trump - 10% Harris/Walz along with Tammy Baldwin. And some of the Democratic signs are BIG. And - perhaps this is not coincidence but in fact partial explanation - they're often in the houses next door to or across the street from houses with Trump signs.

My favorite so far, sandwiched between two Trump + Hovde houses, is a sign almost as tall as I am that reads "Harris/Walz - OBVIOUSLY."

Not sure if that yard sign was made by the user or which state it's located. But be that cat!

If you know people in swing states but haven't been in touch with them for a while, there's no better time to reconnect than NOW.

People are far more likely to be influenced by those they know than by some ad.

And if that person is a slightly Trump-leaning bro, this clip might help a bit. 😆

and one more thing

just to be clear I couldn't care less about what exo's gonna do without jongin. They better work it out. That boy has been their workhorse for years and instead of appreciation they threw him under the bus consistently for cheap laughs. Better get some background dancers or something. This aint one direction and vocals aren't the draw in of the group its performance. The fact that they had one member carry a group for that long while the others were allowed to chill doesnt even make sense. Whatever happens to the group in the next two years isn't on kai he pulled his weight with this group ten times over.

I thought my whole neighborhood and even city was pro-dump as hell, and sure there's alot of Very Loud R's out there, there's a gunstore with "God Guns Dump" that looks so tacky and in everyway antithetical (might as well say Water, Fire, Slime) and a buncha signs, the occassional mega maga supporter trailer home.

But since the Kamala v Dump debate? Slowly, I'm seeing more and more signs for Kamala. I've not seen anyone flip, but I have noticed compared to Kamala signs, the Dump ones are almost always edited to remove Pence, not even adding Vance, 'cept one dude who censored Pen and drew over it with Van, funny guy.

My point is, Dems were deafeningly silent in my neighborhood, it's just a house, hell I don't even have a sign, but seeing dems pop up with theirs makes me want one. And I feel like that's what happened. Someone put one out, another put theirs out, and it snowballed.

Point being that I have never seen a sign for a dem before. Not once. Never since moving here, never since moving from the south, and yet this state is securely Blue, definitively, Blue. Only now (however long the debate was) am I seeing signs.

Dump supporters are loud. Their signs are meant to intimidate, meant to inspire a fear of one's future and for one's health. It's meant as a warning to others not to "tread on them" and that goes as far as simply existing anywhere. Literal Nazi signs plastered half by dumb mother fuckers and half by knowing mother fuckers. It's purpose is clear, intimidation, normalization.

Don't let them intimidate you. They're loud because they don't know enough to lack confidence. The reason dems seem less loud in these moments is due to having more knowledge and thus more hesitations and inhibitions. An R doesn't believe they'll ever be targeted for their sign, no matter how much they larp about sleeping with a gun under their pillow, none believe a sign will cause anything towards them, other than the Larp that enables them further. Some, however, are willing to cause harm, and their sign is the warning.

So when they put out a Dump sign, recognize they've not got the same fears, inhibitions, or reasonings as someone blue putting out a sign, which has an actual chance of vitriol occuring. When you see R signs, what you're seeing is confidence in their position, and seeing a woman of color going ahead of Dump has them extra spooked. The normalization of their beliefs slipping more and more.

I'm not saying to put a sign out for anyone mind you, but I am saying if your neighborhood has a few signs, you might cause a ball to continue rollling, joining in. Maybe not you personally, but others.

To put it simply, in a way that I really enjoy, during Covid we had some 3 nearby neighbors with flags on their mailboxes. One of then had some kinda hateflag, if not a dump related one, it was pretty apparent racist stuff, with 2 neighbors across from them having a "hate has no place here" flag on theirs.

These conversations people have with these methods is rather interesting, but to me, dems have always come off as the silent majority, scared to speak too loudly lest they be judged for not knowing enough on the spot or assaulted for their beliefs. An R has devoted confidence in everything they've been told and could remember, and it's usually turned to baby food for ease of digestion. Dems actually, like, have to research history and compile evidence to believe something.

What it comes down to is this:

You'll see more Dump flags because in politics, it's basically a threat. It's meant to challenge those around them negatively. It's purpose is to feel all encompassing, overwhelming. It feels this way because this communication isn't one leftists have much interest in. It's rather extroverted in theory, to put out your beliefs loudly and annoyingly, to push out harmful beliefs. Dems just by and large don't do that the way R's do. They don't want to give a bad image to their beliefs and "being a dick" with yardsigns is the default mentality because of R's.

All that said to reach this: There's likely a ton of Kamala voters genuinely too scared to put a target on their back, or to make their beliefs something they wear on their shoulders, and it feels more true seeing a growing number of signs spread linearly throughout my neighborhood. This form of communication, yard signs, is rather new to our generation, something rather loud, obnoxious, even egotistic feeling. But R's use it to burden those around them into thinking, being political at all, means to be like they are with Dump. In actuality, no. But once ya see someone else simply putting a sign up? You're far more open towards it because you no longer see the worst impression, there's not hundreds of flags on a dirty broken down property, there's just a Kamala Walz sign by the mailbox. Simple as.

Because of that, I sincerely believe we'll soon see more Dem signs come future elections. This is a conversation people avoided having because it only felt like wrestling a pig in the mud, and ya don't wanna get caught doing that! But seeing a subdued nature to it all, that's normalcy, and something dems can latch onto. A simple sign can say so much about a neighborhood. Bring such peace or uncomforting fear, and thus far, R's have had a lot larger experience with such communications to silence others.

Again, if ya don't feel safe, don't put up a sign, but if you do? I really reccomend it. You might be surprised to see more dem signs pop up over time. Of course you'll see R signs far more often, this is a conversation game they owned before us, but it's rather easy to take hold of it again.

We need to start having more yard sign conversations. Because even now, Dump is everpresent and thus normalizes his actions. Kids seeing Dump signs will HAVE to consider that maybe what he's doing has no longer term impacts after all, I mean, there's a lot of signs for him after all.

Putting up a normal ass Kamala sign would put into perspective the insanity of Dump Trailer Homes and what he's saying becomes less normalized. A neighborhood only feels majority R due to Dems not being loud.

For now. There's a potential storm coming. Disconnect, feel, be, and exist, there's no job for anyone to do, just patience, and fear during which is an exhaustive, if these are the last of our good days, live them fully.

With the election being so close I wanted to make this post. I’m really fucking scared right now. I live in a very red area where there is a trump vance sign every few feet and zero Kamala signs. As a very closeted trans masc person (thankfully I am very femme presenting so that’s not a worry), I’m too scared to get any gender affirming things (mostly a binder right now).

Im also even more scared that I will just be shot randomly since even though I’m not trans presenting I’m very obviously queer.

So as a result even though I’m hoping it doesn’t happen, if trump wins, I will be deleting this and all other social media accounts I have (including my ao3 account), since they all include political views/support towards marginalized groups. Please stay safe if you are in the us and if you are 18+ and care about people’s future and happiness please please please go and vote for Kamala Harris.

My state is ruby red. Last week, I put up a Harris-Walz sign in my front yard up close to the porch. Every couple days, as I got braver, I moved it a few feet closer to the street where the visibility is better. Two days ago, my sign achieved its curbside position with maximum visibility.

Yesterday, I was out digging in my front yard (I'm rewilding my lawn) and a truck pulled over. A 62-year-old woman gets out, thanks me for my sign, and admits how scared she is to put up her own Democratic lawn sign. She's a registered Republican who hasn't voted for Republicans in more than a decade. We talked for half an hour and I just texted her about the VP Debate watch party this Tuesday.

Things learned:

Not all registered Republicans are actually Republicans.

Boomers and Gen X age voters are changing their minds.

Having a yard sign makes a difference.

Even ruby red states are more purple than you might think.

Harris Walz and other political yard signs prior to the 2024 presidential election. As seen in South Minneapolis.

There's a few #trump signs in the neighborhood. I expected more. We do live in Redhatville. The ones that do have signs are more hysterical or desperate. Like this place. 1 just isn't enough! There are 6 or 7 more signs on the porch rail and in the yard, and there's a flag.

I didn't photo it because the house might be recognized.
