Talking to an old friend this morning, I have known

him all my life. He is a good guy that would do anything for you but him and his wife are Trumpsters. He says he is not going to shop at Kroger any more he is going to a local chain. I said their prices are high and you won't get your fuel points. He said I don't care they shunned the My
Pillow guy. It was like the Amish or other religion that shunns someone that offends the church. Like I said we have been friends forever so I didn't say anything just I gotta go I have work to do. I don't understand these traitors tried to have the VP and Congress murdered and Faux News has brainwashed them to think they are the Patriots.

feel that those companies who do not support him should be boycotted.
What this does in reality is make their world even smaller and closed off to the mainstream of life.
They are the ones that will suffer from their actions.

7. Maybe getting the check from Biden will mellow them some

If things get better under Biden and people start seeing the benefits for them materialize they’ll probably change their minds. AND on the other hand, as Trump gets convicted over and over again maybe they won’t think he’s god’s gift to humanity much longer.
