▪️ I'm #Republican. Because monarchies belong to the past.
▫️ I'm #Democrat. Because democracy, even flawed, is better than the alternatives.
▪️ I #VoteRed. Because PSOE is way better than blue (PP) or green (Vox).
▫️ I love #America. But I despise one single country from there, called #UnitedStates.
▪️ I hate #Liberals. Because public services are to be defended, not privatised. #SocialDemocrats can be trusted on defending them.
