7. One thing I noticed

On my local TV news on election night (where rethugs swept just about every office here) - -

Every smug Republican candidate (all white, all male except for one Republican female) was surrounded by supporters at least half if not more, female — all clapping and smiling and cheering them on.

I sit here astonished. Don’t these Rethug women have daughters, granddaughters, sisters, nieces? Don’t they give a shit that our rights as half the population have been taken away by all these smug males? Does this even cross their radar? As long as I live, I’ll never understand why so many chickens vote for Colonel Sanders.
