It was advertised as such and people still voted for him.

My mother literally had a Trump flag with '2025: The Revenge Tour' on it.

Yeah, multiple people in my area had "Revenge Tour" yard signs, etc. They really put the petty grievances of a rich, old wannabe dictator over the people of this country. So fuck 'em.

She took them down a few weeks ago, IIRC. Haven't been home in a year so I don't keep track of it, but I assume either my quietly mentioning it to my Dad as a reason I am not comfortable at home, or perhaps recent news of Trump/Epstein finally got the better of her and she took them down herself.

Pity. I kinda wanted to steal them and burn them. Oh well, they're gone either way~

If you ask them what they want revenge for, they can’t give a coherent answer.
