What was with the asshole waving a Trump flag on an overpass above I-5 near Eugene today?

I always thought that area was fairly liberal. I made sure he saw my one fingered reaction.

Must be from Springfield. Although most of the 1% in Eugene will be voting for Trump.

My spouse, who campaigned for Dems last election, said political signs are prohibited on public property until 30 days before the election, but not sure how that would be enforced. Over here in Central Oregon (one of the redneck hotbeds in the state), someone has posted a sign in front of his/her house stating "Get off your rump and vote for Trump". Classy, huh??

We got work to do, folks! Oh, and as we used to say back in my hippie days, Keep the Faith!
