    I’ve been able to convince a few of them to not vote for the orange asshole by passing them along this pic and link to Project 2025’s PDF. All it took for one was the mention of abortion rights being curtailed to change her opinion. A lot of people don’t bother learning about policy and that just makes them gravitate toward whoever appears to be “strong” or “righteous”.

        The time limit one is amazing. It took me 11 years to get the VA to process my shit. “We lost it, bro. Try again!”

          I’m interpreting that one to mean you just submit your initial application within 10 years of acquiring the disability, or possibly within 10 years of being discharged.

            Ok, so take my case (and the situation of thousands of other GWOT veterans) it took years to even get the VA to admit anything was received, and that was without losing anything. It took 14 years to get mine processed, and you know under this law it would hit year ten and they would do a “sorry, brah! Go fuck yourself!”

      Well, don’t mention abortion rights then, and let the other points bring the point home that Trump would be a bad idea.
