2. About Damn time women realize the Republican Party is NOT for them.
Tue Dec 9, 2025, 05:20 PM
Dec 9

Never has been. The GOP has ALWAYS been AGAINST women......

being their own persons
having bodily autonomy
having credit cards in their names
owning property
obtaining an education
VOTING
THINKING for themselves
having jobs
having other rights and freedoms as detailed in the US Constitution

It is about time Republican women break away from the party that has been hell bent on holding them back for well over 100 years.
