        Pure anecdote, but the GOP had me. A young gay black dude. But then they went and nominated Trump...

        Philosophy and logic (not to mention morality) tell me it's wrong to vote for a corrupt Putin shill who forcibly grabs vaginas.

        I don't see how anyone can look at the smouldering heap that is modern day conservatism and conclude anything other than that it's a big lie

        Great article. You know, Reagan was the first politician I hated. I was in elementary school in CA & saw firsthand the damage of Prop 13.

        Very good piece. Negative impressions of the Trump movement & (his) GOP will probably linger for a very long time.

        It's true. At least in our family. All the younger adults in our family left the GOP when Trump won the nomination.

        Not 1 Single Trump Voter will Vote for a Dem in 2018 2020. Guaranteed. Dems are the #AntiAmerican #AntiPolice Party Of Hate.

        In a few years Dems (& Indies leaning Dem) will have such a huge majority Rs will be unable to win races that aren't local & rural.

        I'm not a Dem so I can't speak to that. The demographics are in the Dem's favor in the foreseeable future.
