Before the 2024 election there were maybe a half dozen Trump flags within a mile of my house, and a truck who regularly drove down my street with a bunch of Trump flags flying. Three or four months into 2025 and every single Trump flag had come down from the houses, and I haven't seen that truck in probably a year. I'm guessing he's still driving on my street but I don't recognize the truck without the flags (which provoked a visceral reaction in me every time).
