Yesterday, a retired white neighbor finally removed his Trump 2020 and Don’t blame me- I voted for Trump signs that have been up since he was defeated by Joe Biden. Only a matter of months since his hero’s return and the only thing now on display is an American flag. Careful what you wish for.

This won’t go well—we love our parks.
