Yeah, this guy is bizarre. He's like compassionate, gun crazy and a little up Trump's ass. It's this bizarre mix. He's a huge LGBT supporter and I'm not sure he cares much about abortion. I'm honestly not sure if he isn't just trolling me.
My mom was a mostly lifetime voting republican. My friend John who lives in Oklahoma whom will be visiting me in June, also has the same issues with his own family. You ask them about certain issues, without mentioning party and they will agree with you up until you mention party.
I love my mom deeply as everyone here may know.
She was for gay marriage.
She was for higher pay for workers.
She was for affordable health care.
She hated the idea of guns in schools.
Bernie was the first time I knew of where she didn't vote republican. That party has for 40 years have been masters at getting people to vote against their own self interests. I really do believe, knowing lots of todays republicans are still old men who were young supporters of Nixon and I think a lot of their stubbornness and obstruction is modeled off that bitterness. The good thing is that those politicians are getting old. I am just sorry that those assholes sold their shit to my mom.
