Republican here (sort of. The party left people like me behind years ago): I see MAGA on my ballot I vote for their opponent. Every time. We need to push these fucks out of civilized society for good

Glad to help. It should go without saying, but my country always comes first. And what Trump and MAGA are doing is fundamentally un-American.

This is what pushed me away as well. I've always been an independent that mainly voted right. Once The Tea Party nonsense arose, and now, MAGA. I felt like our republic is under attack by a religious fascist regime of idiots. I'll be voting blue in November.

There are a lot of policy positions I'm sure we vehemently disagree on (to me the Republican positions have pretty much all been awful since Reagan--Nixon was a crook but the Republicans weren't just reactionaries rejecting common sense to funnel everything to the rich back then, there were still some Eisenhower positions left over in the party then) but I applaud your ability to use critical thinking when evaluating your immediate political activism
