I don't need the hair shirt or excessive self flagellation. I am often reminded of that meme though........"Well, well, well, if it isn't the consequences of my own actions.'
My struggle is with how loudly, harshly, vitriolicly, and with gusto they pushed their agenda 24/7/365. That doesn't go away quietly.......

I struggle with this issue on an ongoing basis. On one hand I think everyone deserves a chance at redemption. We all make mistakes, and we should have the opportunity to atone for them and show that we have learned and changed. On the other hand some of us still live every day with the consequences of what they had a hand in creating, and while they may have moved on and even regret what grew into the toxic weed of MAGA and DJT, we still are stuck with the damage from the storm. And they don't necessarily disagree with all, or even most, of the conservative policy issues and decisions that were utilized as part of the GOP divide-and-conquer tactics.
I'm one of those in Wisconsin who still feels the pinch of what the Walker regime did, aided and abetted by a GOP legislative and Supreme Court majority (at that time), from hyperpartisan redistricting through Act 10 through vigorously defunding and handicapping the UW System through Judge Gableman and 2020 fake electors, and on and on. It is hard for me to turn the page when so there is so much discord and dysfunction in this state. It didn't have to be that way. As Charlie himself used to like to say in this space, they were warned. That sentiment certainly is a two-way street.
