My sister is a Texas trumpanzee

She saw my "I voted" sticker and said, "I have to go and cancel you out."

Then she said, "I hate Ted Cruz, but I hate Beto O'Rourke, too."

Then she said, "Why is there so much hate in this country?"

Sigh.

Her brain no longer functions properly because she has swalled so much trump logic, which is not logical.

I know that Lyin' Ted has done a lot to make people hate him, but what has Beto ever done?

That's another difference in us and them. I don't think there's ever been a Democratic candidate that I can say that I "hated." There may have been Dems that didn't excite me or bored me to tears, but I didn't "hate" them and still vote for them. I just can't get into that mindset!

I doubt she knows a single one of his policy positions, but we don't get into indepth discussions about politics (to avoid fights).

Weird having a family member's brain sucked out by the Dumpster Monster, though. She's always supported Pukes like Ray-gun and Shrub, but this is insane.
