Indiana
Related: About this forumA drive in eastern Indiana. 1 rump flag.
Took a drive on a two lane state road from Indy into eastern Indiana yesterday. Setting out I intended to watch for Trump flags and signs. In 2016-2021 this road was covered with them, every other or at least every third house. They used to be in farm fields at the fence. Used to be planted at crossroads. Yesterday I actually forgot about looking and only jogged my plan when about 4 miles from my destination, I saw 1. One. When I saw it it reminded me I was going to look and I thought to myself, Hell there wasn't any until I got here! I'm not saying we win Indiana, but Obama sure did in 2008.

(2,793 posts)When I first visited Atchison, Kansas in 2020, prior to moving here, I visited The Flea Market that's located between here and Saint Joseph, Missouri. Big, interesting junk shop. The whole back of the place was turned into a shrine to T...p: huge flags, yard signs, bumper stickers, ridiculous posters, all sorts of tat. I stop in from time to time, because flea markets are my kind of place. (Don't get me started on Tucson's glorious Tanque Verde Swap Meet!) In the past four years, I've watched this display dwindle very slowly. Crap gets sold, and not reordered. Right now, it's down to two display cases and the walls in a corner.
In Leavenworth, there was a hill on the main drag where every house on the block had some huge, low-taste TCF banner flapping. They're gone, now.
Progress.
