Fun? Yes, but booby trapping is of dubious legality and opens you up to civil litigation.
You could argue that you put them there as decoration.
To keep pigeons from roosting on your sign.
Fine. Post a notice that stealing the MAGA sign is theft and that it will be painful to the thief.
Acceptable "traps" are those used to deter animals, such as anti-bird gel or electric wires (the kind you use on cattle fences, not the 220V kind).
