Saw my first Trump sticker today. Guy pulls in with big flags on both sides of his van up

in the air. Big Trump sticker across the back. Militaristic bellicose type looking guy jumps out like he owns the US and struts across the parking lot. Just another of my many WTF's each day.

And not dressed in some gear of sorts. I think he was retired US military. I saw his car tag, but I won't mention the branch.

I can't pass it without thinking -

"What is that person thinking?" or
"What kind of person would put a Ben Carson sticker on his/her car?"

My neighborhood is highly Republican, but I would have thought most would be more mainstream or "Establishment".

6. Last week I almost asked a guy I saw in the grocery store parking lot if he ever got laid.
