While walking this morning in our racist little town that is littered with trump shrines.... [View all]

Our local veterinarian who is now retired joined us. He has been a Republican his entire life so we have never discussed politics with him nor have we ever socialized with him. My one friend we walk with put a Biden sign in her yard yesterday and they live in the same neighborhood. He asked if he could walk with us this morning and mentioned her sign....we thought, oh, here we go..but he immediately started bashing tRump. We were gobsmacked...it gave us hope that a died in the wool Republican is voting for Joe Biden. I am hoping this is a good sign for PA.
