Nothing will change and I am sure that most of those members voted Republican and will continue to vote Republican out of fear and ignorance.

I know its easy to feel helpless with all the nonsense thats going on right now but we all have to think about what we can do to fight back and get the representation we need!

The answer to your question is exceedingly simple: vote blue no matter who. The GOP doesn’t give a shit about you, and will continue to not give a shit about you. Time to kick your addiction to voting republican, it is literally the only way to save yourself.

I used to vote for the unions endorsed candidates, then the republicans tried to take away collective bargaining in Ohio. No I only vote blue, won’t even vote for an unopposed republican
