    This is great and all but…You are an elected official with an office budget. Get a sign professionally made or have a friend with nice penmanship draw the sign FFS. Going up against such sloppy thinking opponents doesn’t mean you make sloppy signs. Do better so as to look better and be thought of better and,dare I say, professional and serious.

      It is amazing how completely this comment misses the point, the joke, the meme, shitposting, trolling, just absolutely every nuance of context.

      i don’t think she has an ‘office budget’ yet. she hasn’t been sworn-in and seated because tiny mike johnson refuses to allow it since she represents the vote needed to force a house vote on the pedo files.

      Whilst she makes a real and serious point, if she belabors it by dressing it up as something official, then she weakens whatever authenticity she has with the people that see it.

      Making it as ad-hoc and sloppy as possible, genuinely sells the idea that it was done on the spot, without AI fakery, and leaves it open to debate on whether or not this is an official position of the Democrats.

      I hear you, but I think the way she did it was absolutely perfect all things in consideration

      How about don’t waste taxpayer money on doing a meme professionally before you’ve even been sworn into office? Thanks
