Something strange in my neighborhood [View all]

I live in a super red area of NJ. The amount of Trump signs displayed was disgusting. I thought that they would throw a block party celebration when he won. But Wednesday morning every single sign and flag was gone.

I wondered why and then I found out. One of my least MAGA neighbors said they were are expecting him to lose and gearing up for a fight. But when he won, they were afraid they were going to be attacked and terrorized by us.

They believe we're every bit as deplorable, angry, bitter and vitriolic as they are.

They're shocked we're not rioting in the street and burning down their houses.

Go figure.
