An ice cream shop in Port Jefferson, N.Y., has removed a pro-Trump banner after initially refusing to back down from a stand-off with town officials.
The store, Roger's Frigate, was ordered by town officials to take down the 3 feet by 20 feet sign, which read "In Trump, We Trust," after the mayor said it violated a local code because of its "size and substance," according to News 12 Long Island.

I'm from there and was shocked to learn this a few years ago. People I went to high school with, many are reliably rethug.
