Even the one who is now my brother... could you imagine the obstacles she'd face under a Republican administration and Congress. Apparently, she/he can't. And on behalf of my green card S.O. and everyone else. Their prescription is for austerity, on us.

Before the gay club starts getting their backs up, me and the S.O. are both boys. Her Republicanism is the source of conflict, not her choice to be a boy - she's militant Republican. Yeah, I don't get it either, but I voted (D) for her.

The S.O. gets it, the sisters don't.
