    We already know, they’ll pretend it was the democratic president’s fault

      Was really hoping to read something else. Something arguably less plausible… but something else nonetheless.

      I hope you have a good week though!

        Eh, not all of them. I have 7 brothers and sisters, all of us raised Southern Baptist and thus obviously Republican, and I think only 2 are really likely to vote regressively. A 3rd could go either way. The rest of us have seen through the BS. I know it’s only one anecdotal data point, and I suspect we’re the exception rather than the norm, but I think it illustrates that Republican policy and hypocrisy are massively unappealing to people who have a capacity for empathy and critical thinking, and thus that we’re not necessarily doomed.
