(16,110 posts)My one remaining friend from high school, known her since about the 6th grade. She's gone from apolitical to full on anti-vaxx MAGAt, mostly because her husband is.
I don't speak to her anymore. I also don't speak to my right wing brothers either because there is no point in banging my head against that particular brick wall. I have nothing in common with my brothers or with this former friend. The last straw was when she (former friend) told me I was stupid for being vaccinated, because it would "change my DNA". Whatever.
But, I honestly believe that Republicans are taking things too far. They are overshooting and I think (hope) that it will come back to bite them in the midterms. I would hope that women don't want to become second class citizens.
Iowa? Well, probably a lost cause for a while. I have more hope for Texas than this benighted state.
