Just traded stink-eyes with a Deplorable over our mutually exclusive bumperstickers

I was in the left lane with my CLINTON-KAINE sticker in the lower right corner of the rear window, with my Vietnam sticker in the left corner standing Watch ("watch" Navy word for Army word "guard&quot , because wingnuts DON'T DARE vandalize my Dem stickers when they see "Vietnam." These are in prime sight locations to all behind me.

So this battered pick-up, am not denigrating honest working owners and their vehicles, speeded up to pass me on the right, then slowed down in a way that gave me a clear view of HIS rear window's sticker in his lower left corner, which was for the execrable Ted CRUZ, plus there was a sticker in the center that said something I couldn't decipher about Hillary. As we both approached a stop, he pulled in front of me in my lane so that I would have to stare at his CRUZ crap.

Luckily there was a turn lane to our left, and I pulled into it, and for the duration of the stop, my sticker was planted exactly in his view.

When I passed him, he was ready for me, had his face turned to see me. He had a grizzled longish beard, ball cap, looking like the Duck Dynasty dudes.

He didn't scowl, just had that tired, disappointed, enemy look. I had sunglasses on, so was all blank in expression, but we both were liable for StinkEyes, like from the kitty below. And when I got home, I unleashed my Mati mug on him.

who goes ballistic when she sees anti-Hillary bumper stickers. She is so disgusted with tRump she has had a couple finger flipping incidents. To top it off - she is a Chinese citizen - appalled at the crudeness of tRump.
