They get angry and don’t vote. You’re not just voting for you, you are voting so we don’t have to to witness people being snatched off the street, children who will never know who their parents are because after they put them in cages they dispersed them without records. We need to care about everyone or we become 1 issue voters like MAGA and that is just as self centered and cruel.
