Drove through Allentown Pennsylvania and saw something I wasn't expecting

I had a landscaping job up near Allentown last Tuesday, and after I finished I took a detour through the downtown area. I noticed a ton of houses had Trump yard signs that were faded and beat up from the weather, like they'd been up since 2020. It got me thinking about how some folks just don't take them down no matter what. Anyone else seeing this kind of thing in their towns?

Noticed a ton of houses had Trump yard signs that were faded and beat up from the weather" - maybe those people just don't care about keeping up appearances and are more focused on other things. Plenty of folks leave old signs up for all sorts of reasons, not just politics, like laziness or thinking it's a waste of time to take them down.

Honestly those signs look rough after a few rainstorms, but it is what it is. People get them for free at rallies or from the neighbors, so they're not exactly invested in keeping them pristine. Probably just got stuck in the lawn and nobody bothered to yank them out after the election. Not like it's hurting anyone sitting there either. Could be worse, could still be a bumper sticker from 2008.
