In reply to the discussion: What was the Specific Event that Made You Realise that Republicans Are Evil? [View all]CrispyQ
(36,460 posts)I've tried to keep politics from affecting personal relationships, but as the repub party gets more & more extreme, it's gotten more difficult.
How anyone can support a man who mocked a disabled person is beyond me. I thought Trump was toast with that, but no, he went on to insult just about every other group, so when the Access Hollywood tape came out, I wasn't as sure as everyone else, that that would take him down. And it didn't. When I read the 53% of white women voted for Trump, I thought, what the fuck? I have three republican friends, "who could never vote for Hillary Clinton," that I haven't spoken to since the election & I don't know if I will.
If one continues to support republicans, even though they want to cut Meals-on-Wheels & hot lunches for school kids while giving tax breaks to the rich & building up the MIC, that's kind of evil, imo.
