Sure, there are sometimes a few campaign T-shirts and bumper stickers or the like floating around but nothing like the "Red hat club" and Trump flags. There are Trump merchandise stores set up everywhere, including in Milford.  There are literally hundreds of Trump flags on docks on Okoboji and people drive by in boats with one, two,or even three Trump flags.  It's one thing to support your candidate but it's super odd to be so obsessed.  I'm honestly not sure if it's a cult-like obsession, an attempt to "troll" Trump haters, or a combination but it SUPER seems strange to be so fanatical in your support or trolling.

I left a Buttigieg group on facebook because it got too weirdly fanatic, but even that was like a fraction of what we see with MAGA.
