“I agree with just about everything Trump is doing except for transgender people,” Rick told CNN.

I agree with just about everything Trump is doing except when it effects me or my loved ones.

There, fixed that for you.

I know of at least 3 trans people who are in this weird space where their families are actually really supportive but at the same time are die hard trumpers. It’s an amazing level of dissonance

One of them does the “well you’re really trans but all these fake trans ruined it for everyone!” thing but the other two seem to be fully into denial. Like “he’s not that anti-trans” being said like 2 weeks ago. It’s mind boggling

I'm in that boat too. My dad insists he's only voting for tax reductions. >_<

I don't understand why people believe the republicans are good at the economy. They lose a ton of money and give most of the benefits to the rich. They eat the seed corn by gutting the foundations of society. Sure, you can save a little money now by cutting that pesky "free college tuition" thing but then you're going to pay for that in other ways.

That Trump isn’t giving him? Or does he plug his ears and sing La-la-la-I-can’t-hear-you when you point that out?

He doesn't like to talk politics with me. XD

Well you get what you vote for. Sad but true. Maybe more people will think about who they are voting for next time.

voting for next time.

I've got some beachfront property for sale in Yuma if you believe there'll be real elections again anytime soon.

Well, there was that promise that you would not have to vote again….

It sounded like a promise.
