"I was still a Republican when the TEA party thing happened. I thought they were misguided."
I have 1 enduring memory of the tea party. They held a local rally in my town, outside of the Post Office, and I walked down there. Many men who looked infirm, a few lugging oxygen tanks behind their wheelchair(s), and all of them old and most certainly on Medicare or Medicaid Disability. They held up signs stating: Keep the Government out of My Health Care. They were
most certainly on Government Health Care, but they wanted the Government to keep out of that Health Care,lol. I had zero respect for the tea party after that. Bunch of poor fools doing the bidding of the Koch brothers and other billionaires. Didn't think the GOP could do worse than that, but they proved me wrong with the current version, it's much worse.
