GRAND JUNCTION, Colo - A billboard on the side of us 50 just south of the Colorado River, is causing quite a stir in our community.

The controversial image depicting Donald trump as a dragon slayer is attached to the side of a private building in full view of the highway where thousands of people pass each day.

The billboard is 10 ft high and 20 ft. wide and is attached to a building just south of the US 50 bridge over the Colorado River on route to orchard mesa.

The man behind the billboard is Arvid Mosnes. He commissioned the design, and funded the costs.

Mosnes says that the depiction highlights how the heavily influenced media has ruined this country.

"Freedom of speech is everything, and that's why I really put the media in there, it’s politically correct Muslim Marxist influence media".

The actual artwork itself was created by Paul Snover. Mosnes and Snover teamed up in 2010 for a political Obama in 2010 that drew media attention around the world.

The political poster in the same Grand Junction location from 2010 depicted the president as a bandit, an illegal immigrant, a terrorist, and a homosexual.

Video on the page shows the billboard in which Donald is the dragon slayer with the constitution as his sword.

The front of the dragon has the words, PC, muslim, marxist media.

The dragon is composed of all the agencies, such as IRS, DHS, EPA, NSA, etc.

If anyone can get a screen grab and post it would be appreciated.

Hey, they stole my theory. Heh!

___________________________________________________________
Until a couple of days ago, I didn’t understand it. Now, I think I do. I’m going to call it the “Dragonslayer Syndrome.”

People see him as a would-be dragonslayer. The evil dragon (D.C. cartel, GOP elite, whatever-you-call-it) has been terrorizing the people for so long that they will support anyone who claims he will slay the dragon. They will overlook his past misdeeds and current ulterior motives so as long as the dragon gets slain. That’s the only goal in sight.

As you probably know from reading fairytales, if the Dragonslayer is successful, he is celebrated as a hero and greatly rewarded, but he never gets to be king.

So, when you see conservatives defending him and overlooking what would normally be a nail in another’s coffin, realize that their focus is totally and solely on slaying the dragon.

I don’t know if he can slay the dragon or not. Time will tell. But rest assured, he will not be king in this fairytale.

Hmmm......not sure that the Donald has even mentioned the Constitution once, let alone using it as a weapon. Taking projection to a new level.
