Supporters of President Trump voiced concern over putting up yard signs supportive of President Trump for fear of retaliation and violence.
“I really want to put a Trump sign in my front yard, but I am honestly scared about the left mob attacking me, my family, and home. Am I alone on this?” wrote @Phreadys.

Many users echoed the same sentiments:
I looked down my street yesterday & saw no American flags at all! This is scary to me. And I’m concerned for the same reasons you are about the Trump sign. I’ve had to put up security cameras & get protection bc of a death threat.

I feel the same way and it makes me sad. My neighborhood is full of snowflakes😢

I’m giggling, because I live in Oakland, not on a golf course in an economically prosperous area.
I was assaulted twice for public Trump support last year.
But I don’t JUST count on my single vote to support Trump.

But many rallied supporters of the president to put their signs out and show their support with pride:
Let me add: We have nothing to be afraid of. Let not your heart be troubled. You believe in God, believe me. Trump is winning now and he will be winning in November, guaranteed, you can take it to the Bank !
