Aston Martin Posted May 27, 2023 Posted May 27, 2023 He's long been an outlier amongst the rest of the GOP. Pro choice, pro-LGBTQ+ rights, and pro-gun control. Vermont voters would not tolerate anything less than that (Vermont honestly seems like one of the best states in this shithole country).

We need to celebrate people when they support human rights and criticize people when they undermine human rights. It's more effective when we do both instead of just one.
