Union Township, NJ – A billboard referring to Republican President Donald Trump as “Our Leader The Idiot” is making waves in a New Jersey town.

The billboard has been up since last week in Union Township, a town of roughly 60,000 people about 12 miles (19 kilometers) west of New York City.
Under the title it reads, “a new film— coming soon!”
New York-based activist Neil Harrison told News12 New Jersey that he’s paying for the billboard to promote the documentary film he’s producing.
Township spokeswoman Natalie Pineiro said Tuesday that people began noticing the billboard late last week and that she returned to work on Monday to find “dozens” of voicemails from residents. Pineiro said there were more than 100 comments on the town’s Facebook page.
The response has been “overwhelmingly negative,” Pineiro said. She added that she wasn’t sure how long the billboard was expected to stay up.
OutFront Media, the company that rents space on the billboard, didn’t immediately return a message on Tuesday.
Pineiro said township officials felt it necessary to send out a tweet explaining that since the billboard is privately owned, the township has no role in approving what is placed there. The tweet called the billboard “potentially offensive.”
The New Fuhrer said to an evangelical xtian mtg yesterday that ‘there will be violence’ if the GOP loses the midterm elections. What a horrific irresponsible thing for anyone to say, no less a prez of the USA. What’s his reason to predict su h a bizarre unfounded and dangerous prediction. He’s clearly unstable and politically insane. Should be removed from office for this idiotic statement alone, for inciting violence. RESIST NOW!
Anti – Trump hatred of full display.
Dimwit leftists can’t figure out that these kind of stunts only strengthens the resolve of Trump supporters.
ONE BILLBOARD OUTSIDE OF UNION TOWNSHIP.
May their numbers increase.
really disgusting how low the loonie liberal left will sink. However when their leader Obama was in the WH, if someone put up a billboard decrying a dumb black in the WH, he would probably be arrested for racist slander,,
It was a different atmosphere in another part of New Jersey on Election Day 2016. I was at the polls 6 AM and there was a line of people. Snowflakes like to sleep in. At 8:30 pm, coming home from work, I saw two elderly women walking arm in arm in MAGA T-shirts and cars tooting their horns in support.
Alice Stockton rossini fromABC radio went there and said it’s on private property off a road that is hard to find and most locals didn’t even know about it except from social media.
This is why liberals don’t win elections …..
Talk about truth in advertising!!
