Our cat rescue organization got call a few weeks ago from a person who had adopted a pair of brothers. She was unable to care for them any longer because she had cancer. We got called in because their original foster wasn't available, so we took them back to our house. We got there and she was looking really bad. We also noticed the MAGA pillow on her sofa. She mentioned during the conversation that her nephew is a Congressman from Texas. I looked him up, and saw this guy.

Well, even though we have several strongly progressive people in our rescue group, the policy is that our concern is the care and rescue of cats. We take no position on politics. She is now in a hospice program in North Carolina near one of her friends. Fortunately, the cats are with another friend and are adapting well.

Moral to the story: MAGAs may be assholes, but cancer doesn't discriminate. And if you have to deal with them, just keep your focus on what you're there for.
