Went to Latrobe, PA for a friend's wedding. We drove throughout a lot of backwaters towns and areas on the way. Everywhere was PLASTERED with Trump banners, signs, etc. When I went home to liberal Chicago Suburbs, there were almost 0 Clinton banners or lawn signs. Not sure if meant a lot, but the enthusiasm gap between the two candidates was huge.
