The fact that this is legal, and these people are walking around free to intimidate people and conspire to interfere with elections are atrocities and should not be tolerated by anybody.
I’m taking Tuesday off, and after voting, I plan to spend my morning with my boys working in the yard. Then I’ll take them to their mother’s so they can play with the neighbor’s grandson. After that, I’m treating my kids to their favorite restaurant, finished off with some local ice cream.
Maybe I’m being over dramatic, but I worry that by the time Wednesday rolls around, the shit will hit the fan regardless of who wins Tuesday night.
At least, I hope I’m being over dramatic. 😔
Saturday will be the day shit hits the fan.
The only person saying they won on Tuesday, will be Hërr GröpenFührer.
Tolerated... We got a major party ready to dismantle what little democracy we got. The GOP collectively lost their shit cause their orange gibbon lost 2020 and could handle it. So in 2024 they've doubled down on the geriatric man child.
If we get this wrong we should apologize to the King of England and rejoin the commonwealth.
