We went to high school together. She was a fun-loving bundle of energy, kind of tomboyish. The most contact we've had since high school has been on FB where we never discussed politics. I do recall a post of hers on election night 2012 saying "I think I'm going to be sick." I met her husband once back in the early 2000s and immediately heard some RW BS that night.
The majority of what I post on FB is political. I don't care. Most of those friends I don't really need. I know she sees my posts, but she never responds to the political ones. Then on Sunday night I got a DM from her simply saying "at least no one in my party is trying to kill presidential candidates." In my typical fashion I just let it linger into the next day. I thought of what I could say to convince her simple maga mind that just because two different beings attempted to take out the rapist, it doesn't necessarily mean that they're from "my party." But I figured that was useless and just responded with a simple "?"
Her response was totally apologetic and regretful. I didn't respond. I just hope she's safe with her maganut husband. And I hope she feels sick on election night like she was in 2012. Or better still, I hope she found the light by then and will be happy with President Harris.
