yesterday, I saw maybe 3 or 4 trump flags in 6 hours. they are taking his shit down. What you see at those rallies is probably the extent of his base now.
I believe the "normal" right wing powers that be are letting him bleed out. They will essentially ignore him and let him slip from sight. Desatan has got to be drooling at donny's smaller rallies.

(1,955 posts)even up to 8 months ago there were plenty of hicks with there "F Joe Biden" / pro trump banners and flags out like the election didn't happen.
In fact, that's why I wrote this post because my ride Saturday saw WAY less trump stuff from spring until now.

(36,301 posts)The Great majority of Trump flags and signs came down within a few days after the election. There are a few holdouts but they are few and far between.
Also, in MI at least, 75% of the vote TFG got came from counties classified as urban or mostly urban. TFG got as many votes in Wayne County (metro Detroit area) as he did in all of Upper Michigan and much of the northern part of lower Michigan combined. If what you say is true, one then should have been able to see a lot of TFG signs around Detroit, Flint, Ann Arbor, Grand Rapids and other places. More then what you'd see in rural areas.
