Bob Cesca pod cast Thursday? Butt Baby trump was said dozens (multiple) of times. Gotta wait until Tuesday for the official count. David Ferguson even wrote a song on cue and Bob and Jody Hamilton were roaring with laughter.

14. One level of scaffolding to go up

before the offensive stuff is removed.

Some of those workers don't look too fit or light, I hope their safety harnesses are up to the job.

Hopefully the holes left after the letters are removed can be patched up properly.

Not great use of taxpayers money, the putting up more than the taking down.

That lady reporter is going to be there for a while longer.

Somebody bring her a comfy chair, coffee, food, and stick around to talk to her.
What is the local time there anyway? 11 pm?

No members of the public nearby?

They had a cherry picker or something and his name was up in just a few minutes. This scaffolding is being put up it looks to me to slow his name removal down.

They seem to be stalling. Some are speculating they are going to hang tarps so we won’t be able to see the letters being taken off.
