An important factor in the upcoming U.S. presidential election is the vote of traditional Republicans who have enough intelligence and integrity not to re-elect Trump.
As suggested in the meme here, Liz Cheney is the unofficial spokesperson for this group; one has to respect her courage in standing up to what is essentially the entire GOP and categorically rejecting Trump, his crimes, and his lies.
The question, of course, is what actually happens at the polling places. There are plenty of Republicans who understand the national and international catastrophe that Trump represents if he gets back in the White House, but who would rather vote for a baboon than a Democrat.
Physician Democrat Amy Acton’s run for governor in Ohio appears to be well-timed. The state’s economy is sputtering and, though the state normally votes bright red, there is considerable concern that the Republican party is run by a lunatic whose economic policies have hurt Ohioans badly.
When did the United States abandon intelligence and civility, and start acting like a nation of stupid assholes?
Should we be concerned for our personal safety now that violent, hateful ICE agents may be given immunity from prosecution for murder?
It’s hard to conceive of anything more unAmerican than what’s happening here.
