disagreed. my wife, when we met, was right wing. but also very smart. also very empathetic. not very politically aware.

we were friends for a decade. dated for a bit. got married. talked politics for a few years. i asked a few pointed questions over the years. in 2015, agent krasnov's response to the attacks in Paris in November of that year were enough for her to leave the republican party, without any of my prompting. dear gods i love that woman. i remember, the responses were all about him being right about some bullshit and nothing about calming and unifying people. nothing what a politician is supposed to do.

nowadays, yeah, never date anyone more right than Rick Allen.
