Elderly white lady with deep Southern accent bashing Trump and government shutdown. (We had slow lines at metal detectors, nothing to do with federal shutdown) but I wasnt going to miss an occasion to chime in against trump. She mentioned trump wants to be like a Russian dictator and I said I dont think Russians are stupid enough to shoot themselves in the foot and that we might have zero growth this quarter because of the shutdown.
I live in a 70% Democratic county, but it encouraged me to see a woman older than I am who was not a Fox News aficionado/a. Hoping that any Republicans within earshot know that we will blame them for the slow down of economy since money (theirs) is all they care about.
