Twitter header images of Trump supporters
I have for quite some time made it a practice to proactively block on Twitter every Trump supporter I could, mostly because it felt like a tiny, if pointless, "fuck you" to each of them. I was struck by the images these accounts adopt as their identities, especially the ones that Photoshop Trump into heroic, militaristic, or sometimes simply surreal scenes. They are a very specific kind of vernacular art, and I wanted to document it as much as mock it (but I very definitely want to mock it).
