I revealed to my family that I’m voting Democrat a few days before the election. In a Hail Mary attempt I pleaded they ask themselves what happened to the party of Romney and McCain. My grandpa responded with “they tried to kill Trump”
8 years ago today Senator John McCain gave his epic thumbs down vote to repealing Obamacare

My grandpa was a page in the Michigan legislature with Mitt Romney. He knew him as a kid! There was no bigger Romney fan than him.

All of this to say a lot of OG Republicans have never grappled with the party change. They’ve just rode the wave.

I genuinely do believe that Russian social media campaigns, especially on Facebook, largely decided the election for the American people. The cult of personality surrounding Trump could not have formed naturally and must be the result of constant bombardment of information to the point of dulling people’s senses
