it's 30% of America. 30% have always been racist, bigoted, misogynist, and Trump brought them out of the shadows.

I golf with an 88 year old Korean war vet, did work for the church, did military funerals, did meals on wheels, after Trump I found out that he hates minorities, gays, trans, women, Democrats.

He asked me one day, what was the day that will live in infamy and I replied Pearl Harbor Day, he said no, 1920 when they gave women the right to vote, he was serious.

I try to change him by being nice to him, bring him mineral water to keep him hydrated when we golf, visited him in the hospital, went to his house when he didn't answer his phone. (he lives alone) Then when he starts bashing people I remind him, hey, I'm a Democrat and I never got anything for free, I worked all my life and pay my taxes. he can't say anything bad about me so I guess I got him liking 1 Democrat, it's a start.
