This couldn't be any truer for me. While I have never skipped voting on an election since I've been old enough to vote, I have voted with more determination for the past two elections than I have in a while.
In 2015, I was a jaded conservative (with libertarian tendencies) voter who hated the GOP and deemed herself a #NeverTrumper. Then, March 2016 happened, when one of Trump's rallies in Chicago had to be canceled due to violent protests by the opposition. As cringy as the term has become, that was a "red pill" moment for me, as I had realized how damaged and fucking crazy the left has become.
I've said this many times before, and I'll say it again: My ballots are going to bleed RED for the foreseeable future. The Democrat Party is fucking nuts, and as long as they remain this way, I will never consider voting Democrat ever again (which I had done in some local, smaller elections before).
