Yup, boarder towns in red states are going to start stopping women as they travel through their towns to make sure they aren’t pregnant.

    most republican voters don’t even know what tf they’re supporting through their votes, other than their personal trigger issue. they just vote for the R.

      You are so depressingly right. My father is very pro-choice, but once Trump happened, he stopped giving a shit about anything other than getting Trump back in office and/or making sure no Democrats are elected ever again. He has no idea what is actually going on other than what fox and Newsmax tell him, and he doesn’t care.

      He’s the only family I have, and to see him like this now has just destroyed a part of me.

        I lost my mother. She was always an idiot when it came to politics, but my step-father was progressive and toned her down a lot. He died and she married a reactionary and now she’s a die-hard Trumper alternative-facts maniac. I hardly talk to her any more - I hope it was worth it for her.

        Me too. I love my father, he is an amazing dad and always helped me when I needed anything, anything at all.

        But the last few years every single conversation ends up in politics. He just talks about how Trump is the most amazing thing that ever happened to the states, and that he waits for him to get back into the office once again because he was the best president ever.

        If I tried to object he would yell at me for being wrong, so nowadays I just silently stare at him until the subject changes.

      “I took your rights away through intentional ignorance, not malice.”

      Well, it does not sound good no matter how you put it.
