I already know you don't like President Trump.

You're wrong, Starider, I don't dislike 45, the psychopath. I despise
him. But, contrary to erroneous belief, it has nothing to do with any
political affiliation, his or mine. I despise the person, and I use that
term very loosely. I despise what he has done to this country and
what he hasn't done.

In fact, of all the politicians I've voted for in the decades since I
turned 18, I never knew what party they were affiliated with and I
never cared. I always chose the person I thought would do the best
job, the right job.

It's kind of funny, really. After months and months of posting in the
Covid-19 topic, I never knew, nor even cared what party 45 was
affiliated with. Although, I will say this. People like you and your
cronies on this site are rapidly turning the tide. If the lot of you are
examples of what it's like to be a Republican, I would never want to
be one.

I never cared for politics. Even in high school, I didn't like my class
in government. I've never kept up with current events. I've never
been a member of or backed any political party in this country. I
won't join a political party, but if I had to choose one to join, it
definitely would not be the Republican Party, thanks to you lot.
