Something like this doesn't exist in Poland, well not in the shape or form it's in the US. At most if someone has the ability to, you will see officially printed banners from a party being hanged on someone's fence.

Here's an example how this even looks like, straight from a banner printing service: https://www.taniebanery.com.pl/

Of course they are an eyesore, a waste of materials, and are littered fucking everywhere during election season.

Okay, sometimes there's exceptions

But they aren't novelty items that are stylized to look like straight out of Barbie.

So again. Why the fuck is America such a weird and wild country? Why the fuck would anyone promote a politician out of their own pocket in a "quirky" and "cutesy" or "relatable" way???

Jesus I hate the US. Yes this is a bit of a vent post, cry about it :3

It’s because politics is just sports for the worst nerds you know.

My favorite sign I’ve seen tho just reads:

“Kamala high prices, Trump low prices”

That’s it, that was the whole sign…

Really showing the illiterate nature of the voter base.

edit: spelling/grammar

There's a bunch around me that just "cats for kamala", or "dogs for walz". They have nothing and they're just banking cutsy bullshit.

Absolute fucking freaks...

I already assign fake personalities to my pets. Assigning them fake political ideologies would be abusive.
