Because you don't support criminal, rapist, racist, felon grifters?
Yes, at least the criminal part.
The biggest focus of the opinion piece was about money and jobs, with a vague offhanded comment about civil rights and the rights of women without saying what those things are.
She doesn't want to lose the nutjob vote, she just doesn't want to let the nutjobs run the whole asylum.

Because you care about your state having the federal support it needs?
... So why are you a republican then?
I had an ex who voted conservative because her dad told her to. She didn’t see a problem with it and got offended when I questioned her. My guess is, that as much as I hate the idea, the truth might be that there are a fuck ton of people voting a certain way because of shit similar to this.
Well said.
I don't use/block twitter. I wonder if #RINO is trending under Giles' feed
Poor guy just gave up on reelection. Not enough democrats will see this to vote across party lines to make up for the amount of crazies in his party that will not only not vote for him, but quite possibly send him death threats. I live in rural Arizona, I would love a sane mayor.
This is true. He fell on his sword as much as Biden did.
Edit: well, unless he just recognizes the tide has changed and he is voted back in by the dems in appreciation.
Why, as a Lemmy post title, is this text so large?
They put a # behind the first letter of the post, giving it the "header 1" formatting.
#Like this.
It's annoying, but I think it only happens in the Lemmy apps.
The title is normal sized for me on voyager but
this does format as a header
I'm confused, doesn't it look like this for everyone?
The post title was also this big.
The title for me looks normal
The comment I replied to had the hash sign without a space so I see it as
#like thisAnd I posted with a space
# Like thisThanks, interesting

You're sane.
