A post from FB from the west side of Cleveland which leans kinda red.
Screenshot of a suburban house's front lawn with several signs including two political signs for Sharrod Brown and Amy Acton. 

The signs in the middle say "Republican for COMMON SENSE" and 
IN JUST TWO YEARS of MAGA:
• Unnecessary War with Iran
• 775 Dead or Wounded
• Higher Gas Prices
• Higher Food Prices
• Less Affordability
• Voting Rights Rolled Back
• Am Citizens Killed by ICE
• Attacks on the Free Press
• Cuts to Medicaid
• Attacks on Universities

These People are IDIOTS!
THIS HAS TO STOP NOW!"
