Short travel report from the deep red dumpster

My significant other and I made a trip of about 125 miles on Saturday through five very red counties in Southwestern Virginia and East Tennessee. In previous elections of 2016 and 2020 the highway scenery had been inundated with tRump signage, However, this trip we saw only one house with tfg paraphernalia. This house has previously been overdone and is again which speaks volumes about the inhabitants. I am hoping that this is a sign of better things to come.

- are the delusional McMansion dwellers who seem to think they are members of the elite of wealth who benefit most from Trumps' tax breaks and the people who live in modest homes and manufactured homes who put up such displays.

The house that I mentioned in my post is best described as very modest. It does not bespeak of wealth in any way.
