New electronic billboard with absurd message [View all]

I saw it this morning where there was no billboard or post there 5 days ago. It's smaller, maybe 60% the size of regular ones and the graphics/text were kinda shitty. This is on a busy county road in a very red state but just outside a city that votes blue.

Upon a red white and blue background were the words:

"Donald Trump has done more for American citizens than any other president in United States history!"

First thought was JFC any fuckin rich Chump supporting landowner can just erect their own billboard and program it in oh I don't know COBOL because they're cheap and stupid and put propaganda on it.

Second thought was I wonder how many of these there are? I suspect it's just this one because it's in an area that has seen a huge increase in new housing and a large influx of people in the last 2 years. The thing is, the new folks are mostly black. Do they really think they can convince them with their billboard?

Final thought: Man they must really be gettin' nervous that their base and maybe a lot of MAGA are seeing the DOGE attack for what it is. The rich stealing from the poor.

I bet that billboard suffers some damage sooner rather than later.
