Drivers hitting the road in Dallas after Memorial Day weekend were greeted with a cold-blooded assessment of the presumptive GOP nominee.
The hacked road signs, which typically direct motorists about construction or other temporary changes to the flow of traffic, flashed “Donald Trump is a shape-shifting lizard” and “Bernie for President” shortly before 6 a.m. on Tuesday, NBCDFW reported.
I’m not sure this is what @TxDOT meant for this road sign to say… #Dallas @NBCDFW pic.twitter.com/4iPldtM9gJ

A third sign told drivers that work was cancelled and they should head home. The prank lasted until shortly after 7 a.m., a reporter for the NBC affiliate tweeted, when state officials pulled the plug.
And we have a third hacked sign – though I think this one is a little less divisive politically. #Dallas @nbcdfw pic.twitter.com/TUp1Vj2M1G

Contacted for comment, the Drumpf campaign twattered. “We will win the shape shifting lizard vote by a YUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE margin.”
A huge insult, of course, to shape-shifting lizards everywhere.
Did I miss it, or did TPM not tell us where this took place?
They didn’t, but this occurred in Dallas, TX.
