I won't forget who supported this vulgar POS & I will never look at them the same. Even if they're family.

I only know three personally and they weren't people I saw or interacted with on a regular basis, but as soon as I learned they were trump voters, I have not had one interaction with them.

Also, I have a very good memory and I remember the houses and businesses that had the big ass Trump signs in 2016. So, I made a mental note to never frequent their businesses.

what kinda blows me away is that people, especially media people, still keep acting as if trump is going to stop being trump. it's not going to happen. he is not capable of remorse, he will never apologize for anything, and he really does hate POC, immigrants, and women

Replace support with opposition from either and Trump would fall. Remove Trump and leave the two as is, and we'd continue in great danger. I don't ever want to find out what Pence or anyone else far more competent to advance their plans would do with great power.

Is instead of seeing there is a problem with certain types of guns on the market and it being so easy for anyone to obtain them, they are buying guns! It's like watching your house burn and going out to buy gasoline to fix the problem.

I will never understand these people. And if anyone thinks three shootings in two days is going to make them think we need sensible gun regulation, you couldn't be more wrong. They just want more firepower to kill the 'crazies.' I stopped hoping after Sandy Hook. If they care more about their purchases than they do with innocent children, nothing that happens in a church, concert, Walmart, Waffle House, etc will ever thaw their cold hearts.

It is all astounding and disgusting at the same time.

But we can't worry about those people, we need to insure that our own differences of opinion don't kneecap the common purpose that we must show during election time. We change things by voting better people into office, they may not be exactly what we want, but when is something ever exactly what we want.
