    My wife’s family was all Republicans. The matriarch is even a politician and was elected as a Republican.

    With my goading, Trump’s four years in office was enough to convert all of them to Democrats.

    They see it like, to the extent they were ever Republican, that’s not today’s Republican party, period.

      That’s great, but unfortunately that’s only a temporary victory since once trump is gone, it’ll be seen as if the problem has been rid of, when in reality the problem is republican policy as usual, which trump is following to a T.
