Dec 2016

voted for Trump so he would appoint a Supreme Court Justice to overturn Roe v Wade. There were many churches blatantly holding meetings to GOTV for Trump. In general talking to them they also vote against taxes for welfare, childcare and minimum wage for working parents and/or any form of support for poor babies after they are here. One woman told me that Churches would meet the needs of all the poor people in the country.

They are
1)Religulous Forced Birthers
2) Wealthy Elitists: "I've got mine fuck you"
3) Yellow Dog Republicans: One woman told me I always vote Republican, period.

Good Luck penetrating this nest of vipers and why would you want them on your side? Do you really want to work with them?
