Clothing store advocating hate has billboard of Trump depicted as Hitler removed in a day
NOTE: This isn’t the normal fare for WUWT, but it has happened in my town, and this website is still connected to the local newspaper, the Chico Enterprise Record, where it got it’s start, so I’m covering it
In less than 24 hours, a billboard comparing President Donald Trump to Hitler was installed and removed at East Third and Mangrove avenuesThe advertisement, paid for by local clothing store Rouse & Revolt, depicted Trump with a 45 fashioned on his sleeve in a swastika-style armband, his face stony amid nuclear explosions occurring behind him on the billboard’s red background.

Stott Outdoor Advertising took the display down after people erupted on social media.
The advertisement was called disgusting, despicable and “plain stupid,” by some, while others expressed support for Rouse & Revolt."...

UPDATE: It gets worse. The website for the store sells T-shirts depicting cop killings see below
One hopes Watts will report this deeply shocking development to frequent WUWT contributor Viscount Monckton of Brenchley, here seen presenting a slide of his own design that must surely be another clothing store billboard, as the noble lord is a noted shirtmaker, and as befits his considerable powers of embroidery, a Liveryman of the Worshipful Company of Broderers.
UPDATE: WATTS & BREITBART ARE FOLLOWING NEWSWEEK'S LEAD
Rouse & Revolt owner Nicholle [Haber] told Newsweek that she didn’t sleep much last night. Her phone wouldn’t stop going off with the persistent buzzing of death threats for her sign, which stylizes the number 45 into a swastika and features Trump posed in a Hitler-esque stance.“I’m living in a small, podunk red town and I’m already getting death threats,” said [Haber], whose store is in right-leaning Chico, population 90,000. “My business has completely floundered. Overnight I had more one-star reviews than all the reviews I’ve received in a year.”The sign was up for less than 24 hours before Stott Outdoor Advertising took it down amid a backlash that featured online attacks.“WOW you have some cute clothing,” someone posted on the store’s Facebook page. “I never heard of your business until you put up your poster board. I would never support your business because clearly you are a divider and a hater.”[Haber] said one man told her that if she didn’t hang herself, he would do it for her.
