and this old man by himself pulls up his truck right in front of the entrance, and angles his vehicle where anybody driving or walking by will notice his huge Trump magnet on the side of his vehicle. A huge picture of Trump's mug shot with the words Making America Great Again. This stupid old man was taking up two handicap parking spots. My wife says, don't say anything to him as we walked by. We were inside the store for almost an hour. When we walked back outside that old man was still sitting in his vehicle, and smoking a cigarette.

Seriously, this dude is suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome. WTF would make someone go to the expense to have a huge magnet sticker made up, just to park in a Walmart parking lot? These fucking people are nuts.
