33. When I vote

Sun Sep 28, 2025, 02:24 PM

Sep 2025

I vote for everyone. I don’t vote for my pet issue and sit at home and sulk because my issue wasn’t front and center. I don’t vote for the candidate that will do the opposite or will not win. America is suffering from a self centered me addiction and after Trump and his destruction if that isn’t enough to make you get out and vote to help the world. Well I’m not going to fret or try to make you see how your blindness is causing so much pain. You will get what you vote for.
