if they swallowed Trump's horseshit for years, a pinecone sandwich isn't too much to ask.

We should welcome all to opposing TACO. No they don't get a cookie but we should welcome their vote. Yes it will hurt to bite our tongues that hard.

The vote seems immaterial to this.

The entire GOP is completely servile only to
the good of rich white males...

period.

This will not end well for anyone at all.

That's the truth.
But a part of me hopes that there's an awakening within these people; a realization that we're all connected in ways that result in the consequences of hate being reflected outward in unintended ways.
Hate is it's own trap. It renders the hater incapable of seeing, hearing, or feeling what the consequences of their hate is.
And then comes an awakening event; a invitation to see what hate has done, and how it doesn't care who gets hurt; how the one who gets hurt can be family, friends, or even the hater himself.
Most of these hate bound people are too far gone to respond, but some of them will.

I'm not about to welcome them with open arms, but their awakening is the first step in stopping the destruction that will inevitably follow as the consequences of hate tear away at the fabric of society.
