Have had a long time (35 yrs) on line Libreal Texan woman friend. In the Dallas area.
She goes back to like ?nearly The Pilgrms time.

Had quite the dust up when her hubby voted for drumphf!

OTOH, this is what she said after Biden won...
I'd go outside, and dance [in her yard] but I might get shot.
