Tried to stay out of this mess.....
Tending to lean right most of my life, my position has changed. The Republican Party only exists in small corners. They have now become the party of Trump.
Whilst, in most cases, privately disparaging him, republican/trumpists publicly show support. Their sycophantic rhetoric is beyond disgusting.
It's about getting elected or reelected at any cost. Democracy be damned.
Here, in this forum, some are using terms like 'poignant' and 'substantive', yet when given facts, they respond with insults, racism, (I reported a post for using a racist trope yet he/they/it is still allowed to post) with no poignancy or substantive reply.
The above is a trait of Trump himself. He says things, and when confronted with facts he turns to insults. It's all he has.
Having not voted for president in the last two election cycles, I held my nose and voted for Harris/Walz.
I'm not happy with this. For me, it came down to preserving democracy. Trump is about himself.
I'l be moving back to the states in late 2025 and hope things will be better with my party when Trump is gone.
