According to Neil Harrison, who had initiated the move, the billboard that describes Trump as “our leader, the idiot” cost him nearly $1,000. The Twitter community naturally rushed to comment on this, with many reposting the news and offering their assessments.
“Truth!!” one lady emotionally exclaimed, with another one reiterating the idea saying that there should be more of these billboards around:
“LMAO! Bloody Brilliant!” another Twitter user joined a chorus of praise.
One Twitter account even features statistics on the extent to which the news is currently trending in the media and social networks.
However, there were also voices against the move, with one person noting such a billboard is “a disgrace,” traditionally picking up the “crooked Hillary” rhetoric in this context:

He also discussed having paid “hush money” to silence two women speaking out about Trump’s alleged extramarital affairs.
