Jeri Chilcutt, so true. My opinion of the man also. And it can be so disconcerting when we read history and because of our recent past ( ~ 40+ years) my critical thinking (and probably others) gets tangled as we read these letters and Republicans & Democratic “titles” are used. The two have flip flopped completely.

The flip flop has apparently confused many, especially during Jim Crow and on until WW2. Reagan may have had some sense before Nancy got hold of him. When I became “woke,” the repubs were the elites (couldn’t stand arrogant Bill Buckley). Rupert did a masterful job (some already greased up by Rush), of convincing people that Dems were demons. From some of the interviews I’ve seen, that BS is still gospel with MAGAts

I always enjoy your comments Jeri! I've been appreciating the voting process here in CA. Everyone got a ballot in the mail. You can complete it and take it to the polls, drop of at a large choice of places - Firestation, library etc (locked Drop boxes of course) or go vote in person. I got a text from the Secretary of State the day after I voted that my ballot had been received and counted. If only everyone had this process

Thanks for your kind words. Wow, that is awesome. The fact that repubs try to discourage and do everything they can to make it difficult, should be reason enough to never vote repub again…
