Presidents are temporary, Wu-Tang is forever

(The Center Square) – A modest two-story house on the outskirts of a university town in North Carolina has a sign that looks like another for the presidential election but is not.

"Presidents are temporary, Wu-Tang is forever."

Call it a comeback, a breath of fresh air, maybe just simply needed.

Election Day was 60 days away on Friday, former President Donald Trump was making another visit to Charlotte across the state, and his date with Vice President Kamala Harris in the City of Brotherly Love on Tuesday offers the lone scheduled debate.

Tensions run high in seven battleground states, North Carolina one of them, along with Pennsylvania, where the duo hits the dance card next week.

The sign is a reminder and a throwback to the election's beginning four years ago. That election, too, was cast as “monumental” or some other hyperbolic adjective.

About $30 is all it takes on Amazon to secure one. Maybe less in other places. They’re throughout the country, either in yards or along America’s roadsides.

And, they are not linked to the Wu-Tang Clan’s brand. Credit Rafael Medina on Staten Island for the original concept.

“I made them up with an inadvertent message that no matter what side you vote for we are still all Americans and most importantly [Staten] Islanders,” Medina in 2020 told SILive.com. “We should have each other’s back and maybe even have a laugh together.”
