How to deal with the deplorables....

...after the election.

They loudly and stupidly identified themselves by placing their huge ass signs at their houses and their places of business so the solution is pretty straight forward.

Buy nothing from them if they own a business. Don't patronize their employers places of business. Shun their goods, products and services.

It's called tough love and it's about time they were held accountable for their actions.

The only way to change them is to fuck with their cash.

Keep out meaning large DJT signs.

I'll NEVER shop at one of those places again.

There was an elderly woman wearing a button that said "Food not Bombs" in the vestibule of the church. Thinking she was interested in social justice, I told her that I was wearing a Hillary shirt under my jacket.

"What kind of person would vote for that BITCH?" she asked.

"The kind of person who would never use language like that in church. It's deplorable," was my answer.

I think everyone should photograph the businesses that are supporting trump and share those pics on social media after the election. It would be nice when traveling to know businesses that I should avoid.

5 or 6 different businesses in each, with giant T/P signs on the property. Not sure if all the businesses in the buildings support this, but I will never again patronize any of them.

Guess I'll take pix for future reference and proof.
