I remember a high school friend's father saying something to me like, "You'll get more conservative when you start paying taxes." This was around 1993-1994 or so.
I'm 45 now, modestly wealthy, and pay plenty of taxes. I can't envision ever voting for a Republican for any public office ever again...and the current circus of bullshit around TFG just seals that deal for me.
Because being a criminal is a selling point for Republicans.
Just wait until they find out that the guy with the four indictments and the mugshot doesn't look as good to the swing voters.
