tbh I'm quite motivated by how much my mom will suffer, emotionally & otherwise, if Trump wins. Her life's work (legal aid) is hindered by GOP rule. But she also despises sexual assailants for good reason. Maybe your moms feel similarly; if they don't, please vote to spare mine.

My grandson works at Starbucks and every time I go in he puts my name in as 'F. TRUMP' so he can say 'F TRUMP!' when my drink is ready and I walk up and say 'F TRUMP?' and he turns the cup and says 'F TRUMP' and hands it to me. It's the little things.

Tim Walz: Here’s my life hack for all the guys out there: surround yourself with smart women and listen to them and you’ll do just fine. That includes my fellow cat owner Taylor Swift. It’s really great to have all of these women help us beat the smallest man in the world..…
