      It's sad that some people will always, always, vote republican. It's disgusting. Unless everyone goes out of their way to vote republicans will steal seats. They can have 20% of the vote, but get 60% control of the house. Everyone who can vote needs to vote.

Both of them are smart, compassionate, articulate, SOLID people of good character and intent. I felt strongly back in 2004, when I saw him deliver the keynote speech at the Democratic Party Convention, that Obama HAD to become our president. I feel the same way about Pete.

      @@susangolden7383 Right. My only concern, really, is the reality that though there's a great deal less homophobia and a great more acceptance of LGBTQ+ people in this country, there is a goodly chunk of people who are homophobic. Having said that, a lot of people told me that Obama was unlikely to win because of his race, but I didn't think that back in the 2006 - 2008 period because he was just so on the money as far as his ideas and vision was concerned, and he was highly articulate, not to mention charismatic and funny. And at the time, I'd lived in L.A. pretty much my entire life and didn't think prejudice was what it once was.
      But once Obama was elected and the racists came out of the woodwork, I realized just how much prejudice and bigotry there still was, and how naïve I was to have thought otherwise. And ever since Trump began running in 2014, the rise of hatred towards anyone who isn't white, male and Christian has further blossomed. Race and antisemitism-based mass shootings have risen dramatically, women's healthcare choices have been reversed or at least significantly curtailed, and the LGBTQ+ community is under siege, particularly the trans community. On top of that, African-Americans have traditionally been less accepting of gay people, et al, and they represent a sizeable and crucial block of Democratic voters. If they're not so hot on having Pete be president because of his sexual orientation and aren't motivated to go out and vote, that's going to be a HUGE problem. So TBCH, I am a little unnerved by all that. That said, the majority of people in this country DON'T have issues with matters gay, and Pete is a truly outstanding person of exceptional character, so it's not like I have no hope. I do. It's just a bit more weary and tempered than it was when Obama first ran.

      GOP Georgia Gov Kemp gerrymandered hard to get a Trumpist District 14 and changed the law so a non resident could run. That's how MTG got District 14. MTG has not sponsored or co-sponsored one single piece of legislation for her District her entire time in office.

    • @mtaylor7307
      @mtaylor7307 Рік тому +22

      MTG's GA District 14 relies on Georgia's two workhorse Senators Warnock (Black) and Ossoff (Jewish) for their legislative needs as MTG is too busy speaking at a Proud Boys Rally, supporting Oath Keepers and J6, and fighting against Jewish Space Lasers to bother with legislation. MTG was elected according to GA District 14, For Entertainment Purposes Only.

    In response to MTG’s comment about stepmoms not being “real moms”, I have a theory. I think Marge is feeling very insecure about the possibility that her ex might actually find a partner that is not batshit crazy, and will actually become a great parent to her children. The same applies to her comments about the country needing a divorce. Seems like everyone for her lately is projection of all her own personal drama.
