82. I live in a very small town - half Republican & half Dem

Wed Oct 22, 2025, 02:21 PM

Wednesday

I’m nice to everyone. If I know a person is a Republican, I do not bring up politics. Our mayor is a Democrat but he’s such a great guy, he’s even loved by some Republicans in town. . When I was sick, who brought me soup ??- 2 Republican women in my town and 90% of my friends are Dem.

I would never cut off family for political views - Actually- most of my family, except for my granddaughter, just do not pay as much attention to politics as we do.

Trump is one of the most evil people on earth along with Netanyahu-

At least the young - both Republican & Dem youth are anti-war so hopefully the future will be more peaceful.

Genocide is what keeps me up at night - thousands of kids with no legs & no food - not White House ballroom narcissistic stuff. When a narcissist acts like a narcissist - we can’t be surprised 🙃 Of course he will want a gold gold gold best ever ballroom. He thinks he’s a Saudi prince.

That’s really gross & shitty about the White House but it will pass - but the tens of thousands of Gaza kids will have no limbs and many will be orphans forever.
