    A Florida boat owner had a quick reply recently after the management of the community where he lives wouldn’t let him fly a “Trump” flag at the end of his dock.

    Carlos Gavidia of Jupiter got a star-spangled wrapping around the outside of his boat, with the name “TRUMP” in capital letters along the side.

    I have to sort of grin at this man's ballsiness, and at him having enough money for such a response. It's a clever move too, props to him. And it's a nice wrap! (And a damn nice boat!!)

    Does a wrap count as renaming the boat? Because we know that's bad luck...

    I think he better hope Trump wins in November, or he's going to look like one of those people you see still driving around
    with McCain/Palin bumper stickers.

    I remember when the right lost their mind because people sang songs about Obama.
    Such a reversal

    Interesting

    He can always just have it re-wrapped with something else, or just have the wrap taken off. It doesn't look/sound like he's hurting for money, so he's got options.

    More evidence of the cult-like behavior of Trump fans.

    The disturbing part of this story can be found near the bottom of the page where is lists some of the attacks against people who support Trump. I never heard of the right attacking people because of their political views, the closest thing I can recall is when a group of people wanted to attack Sanders supporters, but it turned out the group doing the attacking were also Sanders supporters. Remember that gem?
