In Ramona, she expected supporters of Duncan Hunter and Trump. What she found was more nuanced
How conservative is Ramona, Calif.?
At the Turkey Inn, the town’s oldest watering hole, there’s a portrait of President Trump in a place of honor above the cash register. “We’re just a good, down-home blue-collar bar,” bartender Erin Smidt said. “Lots of vets and military, and lots of people mad at the NFL for not airing the national anthem.”
Across town, at the VFW post, there’s a Jane Fonda target on the men’s urinal.
A couple of years ago, Isis Fuller Figure Fashion, a women’s clothing boutique in downtown Ramona, closed its doors after locals harassed its owners over the name. The shopkeepers, an English mother and daughter, had named the store after the Egyptian goddess.

great Christmas gift ideas!
"Friends, for the latest updates from “America’s Toughest Sheriff” on the Obama-initiated, full-scale foreign invasion of illegals from south of the border NOW UNDERWAY in Maricopa County, AZ (and elsewhere), Arpaio’s all-volunteer posse, the Obama birth certificate forgery investigation, Sheriff Joe’s tremendously successful jail inmate policies ranging from male chain gangs, bans on smoking, coffee, movies, pornography, and unrestricted TV — all the way to the (WORLD FAMOUS) pink underwear and baloney sandwiches Sheriff Joe provides for his “tent city in the desert” inmates, DON’T MISS THIS!
Not only does Sheriff Joe understand how to fight dangerous criminals AND WIN, he understands how to defeat a far craftier and more vicious foe — POLITICIANS! He’s been under relentless investigation since Day One of Obama’s first term. Joe’s response to this constant harassment has been to throw his facilities and his files wide open with confidence to every new thrust of these tag-team fishing expeditions. Not one shred of evidence has yet been uncovered to indicate there ever has been anything improper. What does THIS tell us about this man, what he’s up against, WHO’S ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE LAW — AND WHO’S NOT?
Now if THIS^ isn’t THE #1 REAL AMERICAN FASHION STATEMENT OF OUR TIMES….Well, then! WE REALLY CAN’T IMAGINE WHAT IS!
PLEASE ARRIVE EARLY! We’re opening the doors at 11:00 AM as usual. Up until our 12:00 noon program start time, in place of our usual preliminary video footage, we invite everyone to meet and greet Sheriff Joe personally! This will ALSO be your opportunity to purchase Sheriff Joe’s ORIGINAL, SPECTACULAR, WORLD FAMOUS, pink prison boxer shorts with Maricopa County Sheriff badge, personally autographed by Sheriff Joe for $15 each! Proceeds go directly to Maricopa County Underprivileged Youth Charity.
We expect ’em to go fast, friends. So make your purchases early. Once the program begins, there will be NO FURTHER SALES!
We hope you will be joining us to welcome our distinguished guest, Sheriff Joe Arpaio to Ramona TEA’D!"
