Gosh, aren't we in good hands with these Republicans...

Sigh.

In 2024, if women, Millennials, GenZs, LGBTQ people, educated people...pretty much everyone except the MAGATs, don't literally crawl over broken glass to vote D no matter what, then this country will have the government the MAGATs and other ignorant, apathetic Americans deserve.

The problem is, the rest of us DO NOT deserve that government.

Vote.

Blue.

Straight Blue.
