Choices have consequences; support Herndon

| May 5, 2024 1:00 AM

A stranger started up a conversation with us while we were buying plants. She said she was voting for Jim Woodward who has one of his expensive ubiquitous big signs across the street from the greenhouse

I asked her why not Scott Herndon, as I think he’s done a great job for us, our county and state. "Herndon is a jerk," she said. I asked, "Help me understand, what makes him a jerk?" She repeated, "He's a jerk." I asked three more times for her reason, but she just kept repeating her opinion.

Just like TDS: You ask why they hate Trump, you get an emphatic pejorative, you ask for what it refers to, and all you get is the pejorative on repeat. I call that programming. People capable of critical thought draw conclusions based on evidence.
