The Loudoun County thing didn't help either

Parent gets arrested, branded as a RWNJ, then it turns out to be more complicated, and the progressive majority looks like it's covering up a sex assault/railroading a concerned father. And it didn't help at all that the accused was labeled as trans or gender fluid (I don't know whether they were or not, but the story was going around). It gave wings to all the bathroom concerns the GOP had been ranting about.

People should vote. If you don't vote, you get this. It's not Manchin or Sinema. It's not the fault of out-of-state people who support the candidates not sending enough. It does not take that much effort to be informed.
