Me dino got a couple of red Roll Tide Alabama shirts to pick from.
Twenty straight wins as of last Saturday.
Hope Trump also rises to #1 in his category.

I will have my blue Star Trek shirt on underneath as a mythical precaution.

  Because the red Star Trek shirt is for the expendables?

Strangely, Lenin's supporters also wore red... and until recently, as in the last dozen or so years, red was not only the color designating communists but also Democrats, the GOP being "true blue"...

So be very careful the subconscious message you are sending... comrade.

  Actually, it's a ploy, all who wear red will be automatically inducted in the the Red Chinese Army... or sent to a FEMA camp

I wore 'Red' shirt when I went to vote last Thursday [in NC we can vote as of 20 Nov]
There were long lines and I noticed several holders of 'blue sheets' [the color of the paper the dem pollsters were handing out], were in line saying I'll follow the sheet but, I won't vote for the top; Hillary is wrong for America.

Thought I would give you the smile I got while waiting in that long line.

  I wore my MAGA cap (and a red shirt with a GOP elephant on it).
  
  Was disheartened when a woman asked me, in all seriousness, whose campaign slogan "Let's Make America Great Again" was.
  
  When I told her, softly, "Trump" she said "Oh" softly and turned around.
  
  Low information voters are the deadliest form of electors.

    I went with my wife yesterday so she could vote..at 0930 the line was already 10 people out the door, so about 20 people deep with cars circling to find parking [small voting area].
    
    The amazing thing with the mixed crowd was the conversations of Donald Trump; the 10 outside [which were all I could hear] were all solidly Trump even though several were Democrats.
    
    The DNC pollsters [4 of them standing there] were looking very disheartened. This is looking really good from my small pond in NC anyway.

I have several red shirts, but I vote by mail. Turns out I'm going in for an outpatient procedure, having some pre-cancer skin cells removed, so I will be able to display the red. But --- Why? Elucidate, please.

  I have no idea where the thought came from, but, if nothing else, wearing red will be interesting. OF course, don't do it where the DOJ is allowing/planting Black Panthers to intimidate.

    That is actually among the BEST places to wear the red. Let them know that you are NOT intimidated ... hearten others with your own fearlessness.

    Okay, that just tells me that when I wear red on election day, I will also be carrying my S&W .38, loaded with Winchester PDX1 Defender ammo. I have no idea where some BP may be (and I live in a very white small town environment, but who knows, right?), but if assaulted with a "billy-club" - well, never bring a knife or a club to a gunfight, you'll lose every time!

      Most polling places have signs saying "no firearms allowed." Here in Oklahoma, however, it is legal to carry a sword cane. That would be a shocker to a club carrying BLM/BP thug, suddenly facing a couple of feet of cold steel. I was a sabre fencer in college, so it would be just like old times, but with more blood.

      FYI Check out R.I.P. ammo for your .38
      it's amazing ammo that stops culprits DEAD in their tracks even at .38 cal
      found this on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gmy7V...
      then found the ammo at a Gun show

    Hell, I'd love to encounter a Black Panther. I can see the headline: Panthers intimidate 82 year old man.
    As an aside, do you know how black panthers attack their prey? They go for the tongue first. Yech.

  Best of luck on the surgery, Herb!
  
  I'm guessing it tags onto the "Red State" thing.

  I have a 'deplorable me" T-shirt. Leaves little to the imagination when it comes to the election.

I heard it was to honor the blood our veterans spilled protecting our freedom. I think I saw it in the fast moving comments on a live feed from a Trump Rally. Im all in for wearing red regardless as a sign of being a Trump supporter and that my vote counts.

I don't actually have any red clothing; the closest I have is a burgundy-colored chamois shirt. Maybe that is "close enough?"

I've been thinking about buying one of Rush Limbaugh's "Deplorable" t-shirts to wear on voting day.

  Best one I've seen is from I think Phoenix tees- A takeoff from the Minions movie- says Deplorable Me.

That's easy, when I was a little whippersnapper all I would wear was a red sweatshirt .Mom had 5 of them for me.
57 years later I still go to the red shirt often.

  As a Star Trek fan, I avoid red shirts whenever possible. :-)
  
  (For the uninitiated, "red shirts" were Starfleet members in the Original Series who wore red uniforms and had a high risk of being injured or killed in any given episode. Sort of like Kenny in the early seasons of South Park.)

    As an original series Star Trek fan, it was fairly early on when I laughed whenever Capt. Kirk ordered Security to do something that killed off them in their red shirts.
    But let's consider (well, attempt to consider) this rationally, for this is the Gulch. Consider this YouTude video that explains (well, tries to explain) how red was (may have been) the safest color to wear on the Enterprise from a mathematically proportional perspective.
    (May have been because the video admits not knowing how may red shirts were assigned to the Enterprise).
    Hmm, maybe this video was made by a government funded manmade climate change climatologist trying to think.

    Dude, Starfleet is quite some time in the future. You can no more live there than the past. It's one thing when its a fantasy life ... quite another when it becomes reality.

I haven't read anything about Red Shirts for Trump.But, I'm going to wear my Pro-Gun Tee, Black with a white graphic A Rattlesnake coiled around an AR-15 and below a phrase "Come And Take It". for shear intimidation.

I live in Canada, so will be voting Trump online. Can't even mail it in a red envelope.

And hopefully I won't being seeing red the day after the election.

BTW, this is my first time voting abroad. Do I get to pick a State? How does that work? My birth State? Or does Candy Crowley pick for me?
