Deplorables

The deplorables outweighs the republicans in the elections it seems. Knocking out the republican congressional who voted the right way to impeach Trump. Those righteous congressionals should create a party that hold values and make it what it is, a two party right wing. They would lose in the general, but would prevent their deplorable primary opponents from winning; creating a democratic victories.

Don’t twist yourself into a pretzel. Just fucking vote for the Democrats, soon as we get these guys out of there you can go back to being Republican. It’s not rocket surgery. So many of them think that if they vote for a Democrat, the great Satan, God is watching and will punish them

But the right-wing is two party now. Fascist and GOP. Facist are more prevalent than the GOP. We fought Fascism and it back.

They populate small businesses. They can often be your mechanics, insurance brokers, restaurant owners, medical professionals. If they are silent about it, you are lucky. If they are overt, I walk away. Their loss, not mine.

She was a certified trumper, but it was bizarre hearing her in a class, making convincing points about being PC.

I will say, she would make a great actor.

I had no clue she was a rumper until after I wasn't working there anymore. She was great at her job, ran the whole HR for the county and, with an assistant, was on top of it all the way and then some. I was very impressed with her skills and foresight. SO I was shocked to learn she was a rumper when she mentioned it in a conversation. I tried to cover my surprise, I hope I was successful. I run into her once in a while, she quit the HR job, they didn't really appreciate her because she knew the rules and the county was more interested in kissing up to wealthy land owners and participating in nepotism. I'm thankful I was a temp, I knew better than to apply for permanent work there... including that there were too many rumpers.
