DC, not me. Once a Democrat always a Democrat. I was always socially liberal and fiscally conservative. No I never voted republicans in my life. Always democrats. I do not see Trump as old school republican. He also voted both sides of the Aisle. He endorsed and supported Bill Clinton tremendously when Bill was in trouble.

 

Me too. When I saw what the Republican Party became during Bush / Cheney era and how they lied to American people and how they lied to the world and how they ruined lives of many I said enough is enough. The Enron fiasco and the scary financial crisis were unbearable. But I Was Jubilant to see a great young man rising and turning things around after the 2001-2008 disaster. Barak Obama. And was happy to see that those dangerous evil politicians are gone once in for all.

 

It did not take long though and this time they came in as wolves dressed as sheep. And sure enough wars and destructions again all over the world. And that is why me and millions of my democrat comrades had to cross the aisle.

 

It is indeed a sad story to see how far the party deviated from its values and principles. They still kept the slogans the same but actions revealed 180 degrees difference. They lost many supporters.

 

Anyways. I hope Nancy and Maxine turn things around for you.
