For as long as I can remember my father and I have often agreed and disagreed over political issues. See, my father is an Independent and I always leaned Republican. I felt warm and cozy in my thoughts about where the party stood. I thought smaller government was better. I believed they were going to keep our guns safe. Abortions were wrong in my eyes. I loved me some Jesus (and still do). But parties change. I have witnessed this first hand.
I didn’t leave the party. They left me. So here I am. A never Trumper. The disgust I have goes to my core. Now I’m looking at my options. I choose Independent. Although I’m agreeing with Democrats more and more. I’m The Outsider. I still love this country. I just wonder if we can survive four more years of this whining, lying, disgusting man we currently call President.
I was just the opposite! My dad leaned republican and I am a democrat.
I was born into a Republican family, and I’ve been a Reagan Republican my whole life. As in “tear down this wall”, not “build the wall”. As in free trade, not tariffs. As in patriotism, not nationalism. That’s why I’m an Independent now. The party left me too.
I heard that! lol For sure!
My whole family are republicans, meh, but at least they aren’t walking around wearing MAGA hats or anything like that. ew.
