      When I first saw it, I thought it was in suport of him until I realized who was posting it

      Same thing for “all lives matter” where I thought it was someone agreeing with black lives matter the first time I heard it. Didn’t realize someone could get so close to the point and miss it there

        Same, I didn’t get why All Lives Matter was a bad thing at first. I’m like “yes! we’re all humans and everyone matters!” Then I saw who was posting it and had to reaccess.

        There are campgain signs out that say “Law and Order Matters”

        … sponsored by the local Republicans.

        I assumed it was a Dem sign then I saw who sponsored it, then I assumed it was a joke, then I realized that no, it’s real and they are just that deluded.

      Anecdotal, but relevant: I had forgotten what the “smears” were supposed to be until I saw this and went “oh, right, they did that”.
