You’ve got to really not like Donald Trump to torch a Trump yard sign in the middle of the night while only in your underwear.
Video surveillance footage at Kevin and Jane Leighty’s Platteville, Wisconsin home showed their half-dressed neighbor setting a Trump/Pence yard sign on fire with a blowtorch last week.

Turns out the man was the couple’s neighboring tenant and he can be seen in the video footage trying to set the sign on fire with a lighter and then with a torch.

Two people appeared in the video and spoke to the man but did not stop him, offering a fist-bump instead.
Police were reportedly investigating, according to WITI-TV.

@NBCNews that took some pre-planning. You don’t just walk around in your underwear carrying a blow torch. Well. I don’t anyway.
