Who votes but is not politically involved, she is my sweet, friendly, sewing, crafts, friend who loves everyone and use to be big in Girl Scouts as an adult worked for them. And very involved in her church.

She is writing me to tell me how upset with Trump she is. She doesn’t talk like that, I do but she doesn’t bring him up in our emails.

I think many are waking up.
