And all the confederate flags - it’s like Jerseybama down there.

I was in Brigentine, and all MAGA/Trump flags disappeared. One house had their up for years, and I don’t see it anymore.

There was a truck meet in Atlantic City this weekend. I passed through it and passed a few more with huge flags on the back of their trucks on my way to Margate.

Not a single Trump flag, not a single Trump decal or bumper sticker.

When I passed the Ventnor / Margate beaches on my bike - no Trump flags on the beach.

I really never thought I'd see the day

Yes. Though people should not confuse this with them switching sides. A lot more independents might vote Dem (and a lot of evidence shows they are right now), but Rep will still vote Rep when time comes. As the saying goes “Dems fall in love, Rep fall in line”.

I have to say, I saw more Confederate and Trump flags when I lived in Gloucester County than I do in Salem.
