Republican friends, This is my “coming out” t, there’s far-right Trump supporters, Republicans, Democrats & far-left Liberals. I always self as in the middle, but to identify as one, I’m democrat (although I still have some republican beliefs).And I do not need to be ashamed of it or scared of what anyone thinks. I’m not a baby killer, socialist, gun stealer, or hate America. I’m the exact same person that y’all know. I really hope you all continue to see me that way! I only keep Facebook for certain articles, and for my distant family to keep up with my children. But, I should be able to share things without getting ridiculed. I would never, EVER make nasty comments about something I disagree with. Please do not be rude on my posts or try to “teach me” that I am wrong, and Republicans and Trump are right, about everything.

You will not change my mind. I am not stupid. I understand facts, data, numbers, science. (That’s part of the reason I am a democrat lol) I love and respect every one of y’all! That’s why I have been so hesitant to share this, because I do not want to offend anyone. But, if everyone else is proud of who they are, I should be too! I beg of you, please do not blame my family for this (they had nothing to do with it lol), do not judge my intelligence, or think less of me. Again, please keep any ugly comments to yourself. If I offend you that much, please delete me, I promise you will not hurt my feelings.

***if you need to know, the policies I care most about: plans for drug treatment and drug court (fix their problem, not bandaid it), plans to transition oil industry (as humans, we have constantly evolved our way of doing things when we find out it’s not the best for us.) Free healthcare (after watching my mom die, I realized the importance of access to healthcare. She did not qualify for Medicaid bc she had too many assets) Covid plan. **Jesus fed the hungry and healed the sick. For Free. And God said take care of the Earth. So, let’s do it.

Odd she quotes Jesus there but speeds right past the Democrat tent pole of abortion... not really shocking I guess
