I have had a number of political signs damaged but at least, here in our city, people are fined pretty heavily for damaging or stealing signs. I am getting to the place where I prefer not to have political information in my yard or stickers of any kind on my car.

So, the comity who nominates has a group of 5 sub categories they can choose from:

The only people I can think of who put political stickers in their rear car windows are both halves of one couple in my family. They are about your age. They are Republicans, and they live in the SF Bay Area, but they live in a very low crime country club community where the smallest SFRs start at probably $1.2-1.3M. Their HOA fee is about 1K per month, and even with the naturally very low crime, and lots of neighbors who are similar to one another, security people driving around, often in golf carts, are very visible.

Added: I was in California for a few months at the time Trump came down the escalator, but I didn't get a chance to visit them. I haven't had a chance to physically visit since, and I haven't asked them if they support Trump, and neither of them has broached the subject.

Fair trade, I think.
After all, Trump has taken a chain saw to Obama's legacy.

Using the word finally.........it sounds as though she is under the delusion that Trump won't make sure it is replaced (one way or another).

Why such drama over something that costs a few thousand dollars to replace?

There’s a reason these are not being guarded.

They are not that expensive to replace.

Strange that a poster who has the attitude that as long as its not expensive , feel free to destroy has a position of fairness.
