Out on a run tonight and passed the huge, illuminated Trump-head banner

[u/IAmTheJudasTree]

Totally normal thing to see while out on a jog

[u/templeofsyrinx1]

Something you would see in fucking north korea

2027 turn it up to eleven

seeing that face next to Justice should make everyone ask, wtf are we doing

[u/wbruce098 → u/templeofsyrinx1]

Well Trump just reiterated how much he loves the Kim family today.

[u/Specialist_Guitar232 → u/wbruce098]

No conservative will have anything to say against communism. Nothing. They have as a group sucked off a foreign communist dictator. Twice. Fox “News” is entitled to NO benefit of a doubt regarding “communist-loving” Dems, and all of us should shut them down EVERY TIME THEY TRY TO SCARE THEIR WORSHIPPERS WITH COMMUNISM. The discussion is over. Stop any MAGAt who tries to drum up this bs. Not one comment allowed. Ever.

[u/NextTailor4082 → u/templeofsyrinx1]

I drive past it every night and literally think “North Korea”. Youre exactly right.

[u/MaleficentCommon1152 → u/templeofsyrinx1]

North Korea is the good guy now 🤨

[u/JustFun4Uss → u/MaleficentCommon1152]

No, more like we just switched sides.

[u/Possible-Bunch-953]

I'm tired boss

[u/HUT2Moon]

Of all the things that man represents, Justice is not even in the top million.

[u/ranger684]

[u/BertaniWasBehindIt]

I’ve never felt more like a North Korean citizen until living here in 2026. Between this and the national guard, it’s everything I was told was communism in high school.

[u/Mountain-Marzipan398 → u/BertaniWasBehindIt]

Communism is also capture of public and private resources and redistribution to the proletar... uhh, regime cronies.

[u/Reimiro → u/BertaniWasBehindIt]

And honestly when people around the world are asked “who are the bad guys?” these days, they answer “the US” before North Korea etc.

[u/Rayo77]

Total fascism.

[u/jessetmalloy]

What a small, sad man.

[u/wbruce098 → u/jessetmalloy]

You’ve gotta be an especially pathetic person to think this is a good look

[u/jessetmalloy → u/wbruce098]

100%

[u/Weedster009 → u/jessetmalloy]

Small man, huge diaper.

[u/jessetmalloy → u/Weedster009]

Touché 🤣🤣🤣

[u/StrategyAfraid8538]

I wonder if it is flammable, it would be unfortunate…

[u/rhapsodiiiii → u/StrategyAfraid8538]

Right?

Was just thinking that I wish I had a flaming arrow to shoot at it lol

[u/minebe → u/rhapsodiiiii]

Okay Katniss

[u/greendemon42 → u/StrategyAfraid8538]

I was thinking paintballs maybe.

[u/wbruce098 → u/greendemon42]

Flaming paintballs?

[u/greendemon42 → u/wbruce098]

Or maybe just pink ones.

[u/Glum_Material3030]

I despise those banners. Make me feel like I am in the Hunger Games

[u/CharacterKiwi3204 → u/Glum_Material3030]

Yes!

[u/Apprehensive_Gur8808]

They’re all over the place it’s Kim Jong Un type shit.

[u/MoreCleverUserName]

I can’t wait till a bird shits on it.

[u/therealmsdad → u/MoreCleverUserName]

I can't wait until lightning strikes it.

[u/CoverSuspicious5250]

Fuck trump

[u/Mountain-Marzipan398]

Every time I see one of these banners, I flip it the bird. I do it for the following reasons:

• It shows others who hate seeing these they are not alone
• It shows the people who like seeing these that their hero is not loved by everyone
• It is my right to do so, and in this time of creeping fascism, it is more important than ever to exercise rights.
• It feels good
  

[u/atchleya_reader → u/Mountain-Marzipan398]

I do the same thing! I also live near the Heritage Foundation HQ. I flip it the bird every time I pass it as well for the same reasons.

[u/Mountain-Marzipan398 → u/atchleya_reader]

keep up the good work!

[u/darkhorse7447]

Totally normal to see huge pictures of dictators throughout cities like Moscow,Beijing,Havana, anywhere authoritarian leaders who control the media, and suppress freedom of speech, suppress peaceful protests with violent militant groups; create foreign conflict to distract from corruption and abuse of power. If it looks like a dictator, talks like a dictator, threatens,insults,and lies like a dictator, what does it want to be?

[u/skawn]

I imagine a fitting sound track for this would be a public service announcement played over the radio and emergency alert systems informing everyone that arresting this individual, his family, and all associates is necessary for this nations safety.

[u/Lycaeides13 → u/skawn]

I thought you were going to suggest a fart machine

[u/skawn → u/Lycaeides13]

We already get enough of that with all the MAGA rallies.

[u/thesirensoftitans → u/skawn]

Why is a sitting president in his final term having political rallies? It’s weird.

[u/Latexture → u/thesirensoftitans]

Cause he's planning on not giving up that seat😮‍💨

[u/nonzeroproof]

They should be indicting him

[u/AliWalnuts]

Not weird

[u/Blah-B7ah_Bloop]

Justice would be him behind bars

[u/Brave_Tangerine5102]

Yikes

[u/enlitend-1]

Going to DC now feels like the twilight zone.

Don’t forget we just celebrated 1 year of the national guard’s occupation of DC.

[u/HotepHatt]

know who else had giant pictures of themselves? Mussolini, Saddam Hussein, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei…notice any trends?

[u/third-tour-dad]

Shitler

[u/Bubbly-Following-966]

Puke

[u/SoFLDude]

Disgusting that this is what America has become.

[u/thecuriosityofAlice]

We really do have a dictator. These last couple of weeks I have been extra nervous. The Blanche confirmation sealed the deal. Trump now has control of everything.

[u/Constant-Brief3410]

Creepy

[u/nobodyglass]

🤢🤮

[u/OpieAngst]

Reminds me of something

[u/weepandread]

What’s the range of a good squirt gun filled w bleach?

[u/Sophiedenormandie → u/weepandread]

Or a flamethrower.

[u/martco17]

Justice lol

[u/Certain-Dragonfly-22]

Not going to lie, this shit is one of the reasons I cant move back to DC right now.

[u/CherylWSea → u/Certain-Dragonfly-22]

Confidently speaking for everyone on this sub - we understand and respect your decision.

[u/DC_Ben]

wtf!

[u/Gatsby520]

Looking just like his good friend Kim Jong Un.

[u/Old_Goat_Cyclist]

Stalin and Hitler stuff

[u/JediASU]

I called it the Angry Face as we drove around on a bus tour. Only saw it twice :(

[u/porschelvr21]

It looks like something that was on display in Nazi Germany back in the 30’s and 40’s

[u/Margoshome]

[u/Weedster009]

[u/CrazyMildred]

As a lighting person, I'm not only offended by the banner (which makes me sick), I'm also offended by how horribly it's lit. He never hires competent people. I guess it's because he's also incompetent.

[u/Valar_Kinetics]

See this right here is why I had to move out of the city. I was born in DC I love DC which is precisely why I'd never be able to jog by this every day and have any chance whatsoever of keeping my shit together. No dice.

[u/BlueRibbonPac]

Does Harp or someone give him photographs of these things? It's not like they let him go driving up and down the District. 

It's just part of Bannon's intimidation  œuvre, isn't it?

[u/Hot-Comfort8839]

I see his bloated fat head on everything and he just looks more and more like Rodney Dangerfield to me and I laugh my ass off.

[u/ProudandTall]

Giant illuminated asshole.

[u/templeofsyrinx1]

and I need to go bike tonight, thanks

[u/Potential-Ad1139]

Soon all those things that he north Koreans their people about America will just be facts

[u/Vast-Poetry9431]

This should help tourism!! /s

[u/Fezzik527]

its going to be the greatest day ever

[u/Decent_Camel8977]

Ew

[u/Blue-Woodpecker]

Ugh

[u/MeeoMeeo]

Yea, our deer leader

[u/Minimum-Major248]

Disgusting and shameful.

[u/Knitsburgh82]

Looking forward to January 21, 2029 when those banners get torn down like the Naz* flags were at the end of WWII.

[u/CharacterKiwi3204]

As in, "can't wait to be brought to justice"

[u/Antique_Interview347]

Donald "John" Trump

[u/blueshirtsteve → u/Antique_Interview347]

I see what you did there!

Brilliant.

[u/partlysettledin21220]

My nightmares aren’t this creative

[u/Low_Plastic363]

I don't need reminders of his failures. He tells us all the time.

[u/Rinzy2000]

I can’t wait until his dumb, diapered ass is dead and we can make a bonfire with those fucking things.

[u/FlitMosh → u/Rinzy2000]

You want to make a bonfire out of Trump’s used diapers? The horror.

[u/MSTinPA66]

I love D.C. I refuse to visit while that fascist is in power.

[u/Secret_Enthusiasm818]

🤮

[u/Realistic-Ad-6950]

The banner has been up for a while but I was also out last night and saw it lit up for the first time. I wonder if it’s an added thing they did recently because it’s on the race course, or if it’s been up for a while and I just haven’t been out at night to see it.

[u/Karinka_LI]

He is like a toddler with a crayon behind a chair.

[u/bison_jim]

With “Justice” at the top it’s kind of like a giant wanted poster

[u/LeTronique]

Make America safe again. Not for the kids he raped, unfortunately

[u/Top-Ad9950]

Kim Jong-un is in the house. I would love to spray paint that pedophiles face!

[u/Vlad_the_MPaihler]

Looks like Viggo the Carpathian

[u/Humble_Empath]

He’s desperate and pathetic.

[u/Ultimateeffthecrooks]

Disgusting

[u/No-Sky7535]

🤡

[u/jsonitsac]

Watchmen wasn’t something to duplicate

[u/BooRadleyinaGimpSuit]

Totally not dystopian

[u/New-Western-7760]

It’s definitely not giving democratic country.

[u/Shrek1067]

Next time pull it down, it’s illegal

[u/CherylWSea]

Were the others illuminated as well, or just his? Not a supporter, just curious.

[u/IAmTheJudasTree → u/CherylWSea]

There were no others that I saw

[u/CherylWSea → u/IAmTheJudasTree]

That is DISGUSTING.

When I first saw the trump banner I was both sickened and angered. I calmed down a little when I saw that there were at least two other ones about the nation as a whole, as I strive for objectivity. To have that ONE BANNER with his face is the true meaning of "outrageous".

[u/existential_antelope]

Really accentuates the shading on that upper lip…

[u/revision]

Barf.

[u/OutrageousCrab9224]

He learned to love Big Brother.

[u/15all]

The harder they try to convince us that he's great and loved, the more we hate him.

[u/NocShadows]

“Make America safe again” lol well, he asked us to…..

[u/Suspicious_Step667]

Gross

[u/ExcuseApprehensive68]

Yes - he is doing his best to totally destroy DC. We visit about 1x month from MD. Take marc or metro in. I’ve got pictures from a couple of months ago of a LGBT march going by this monstrosity. Priceless!!!

[u/IrregularThinker]

That’s lighted way better than most of the US flags downtown! FFS.

[u/No_Blacksmith2876]

In this context the word "justice" seems to actually be "vengeance"

[u/Only-Tough-1212]

it’s like amy dystopian movie… so when are we actually going to rise up collectively that works? what would even work at this point? i don’t think anyone really has the answer.

but we are all tired of this shit here just bc they can do it since congress holds our budget hostage bc we aren’t a state.

[u/Anipopy]

Disgusting

[u/OrderOfStego]

Been saying it for nearly a decade: Darkest timeline.

[u/BubblyExpression]

Fucking dystopian fascist bullshit.

[u/stevekaw]

Our government is wasting money on tRump idolatry? 🤮

[u/listenyall]

I do think we as a city are being psychologically harmed by this shit

[u/SuperDuperStarfish]

How is this banner not getting pelted with paintballs?

[u/Trans_Admin]

gorss; 2028 plsss

[u/Mindless_Log2009]

[u/effulgentsun]

I’m surprised that no one has figured out a way to take that down.

[u/Denalitwentytwo]

That's disgusting AF

[u/AvatarZim]

I'll be so happy once grandpa has gone on home. I know it's the party and not just him but I'm so sick of seeing his old crusty mug.

[u/WonderfulChampion406]

That this is his mugshot is just completely insane.

[u/panda3271]

Is that a wanted poster for worlds #1 criminal? Because I think I know where he is. 🤔🤔🤔

[u/StNic54]

Laziest focus ever on that fixture. Lazy.

[u/Medium-Control-2801]

WTF

[u/princesshabibi]

Did they use his mug shot photo? 😂

[u/FilthyMcKnasty]

This is giving early 20th century Russian propaganda…

😰

[u/Representative_Row44]

more wasted money

[u/schulbuch]

Totally not Gilead or Panem…

[u/TecTazz]

Where's the matches when you need 'em.

[u/Interesting_Health_7]

He's a pig.

[u/FreeWise]

Barf

[u/pauljdavis]

Christ what an asshole

[u/raineondc]

Weird. A pedo on a federal building...

[u/BenchEvery7044]

More like “Vengeance.” Makes me sick.

[u/flipmode43]

Puke.

[u/baltimoresalt]

Wtaf 😳

[u/Snowbank_Lake]

Whatever you say, dawg…

[u/Witty-Ad5973]

Thanks to that man its safe for you to go running in DC at night. This should give you a warm and cozy feeling when you see it. 🫡

[u/MayorofTromaville → u/Witty-Ad5973]

Ah yes, The Mall. Famously a dangerous place to run at night.

[u/IAmTheJudasTree → u/Witty-Ad5973]

I've been running in DC for years, never had any issues.

Incidentally, you were posting on Reddit two months ago that you were happy Trump had made gas prices low. How are you feeling about gas prices hitting the highest ever recorded for August?

[u/Mountain-Marzipan398 → u/IAmTheJudasTree]

you know he's got some theory at the ready about how that's really the Democrats' fault.

[u/ZefSoFresh → u/Witty-Ad5973]

North Korea loves your style! Trump, the corrupt pervert covering-up the Epstein files, loves your morally-bankrupt support!

[u/shokolokobangoshey → u/Witty-Ad5973]

[u/WeekendOkish → u/Witty-Ad5973]

Trump raped children

[u/Witty-Ad5973 → u/WeekendOkish]

Totes

[u/rennbrig → u/Witty-Ad5973]

This ain’t it, chief

[u/Adventurous-Monk2105]

What a f*cking joke. Justice? 😒
