It's sad to think that both of my parents would have supported Trump. That's about the only thing that's good about them passing away before the arrival of the orange turd.

@dauphin87 funnily enough (not ha ha) both my parents were liberals. as i grew up, i more associated as small c- conservative. i was a fan of mulroney. was intrigued by reagan.

then i saw the data & learned more. i had chretien/paul martin as the liberal govt in my 20s & they reduced our deficit significantly & it was a long period of prosperity for us under their govts.

i've shifted more left as i've learned shit & evolved as a person.

maybe they would have changed, too?

@singlemaltgirl I grew up in the racist American South. Leopards keep their spots.

@dauphin87 oh damn. but hey, atticus finch was based in the south. i have to think there were real peeps she based him on.

they may be the minority but i do think there are some non racists there, no?

also, how did you make it to cali?

@singlemaltgirl There are people in the south like that. Minority of course. I've always been fascinated by the west.
