24. All it takes is having tee shirts on hand and a screen printer with paint supplies

One of my local candidates got a screen printer to set up graphics for her campaign shirts. We just go to his website, order which shirt style and size we want, make payment and the shirt arrives in the mail in 3 days. That way, he doesn't have to 'eat' any unsold product.

So, even faster if shirts are made/sold locally for various things. Just set the graphics, I assume computer graphic programs make it easy, then set up the screen printer. Fast, easy, good way for people to just do it. There are also printable Iron-On transfer available.

And, oh, if you want fast DIY bumper stickers or signs, there is printable MAGNETIC paper. Search to find it online or your local office supply store. Different sized packages, some with just a few sheets, several vendors. I am seriously thinking of trying some of that. Great for local campaigns or events.

Maybe they got woke & you just didn't know it yet. Or maybe by "young people" you forgot the ones with a uterus... Hekate Jul 2024 #23
