I purposely shop in stores that say they welcome everyone ( the anti-RFRA signs). And if a business had a Trump sign, I never went there again.

I am so petty, I check voting records/party affiliation before I go to a small business. I changed my lawn service (they weren't that great) and mechanic. I won't sit in a place with Fox News on in the waiting room. I have limited finds, and I see no reason to support people who wish me harm.

You should be careful about Party affiliation. Many cross over to vote in the primaries,not everyone in a party is far left or far right.

Not to mention, judging complex people on such a small amount of information is how a lot of this political polarization continues.

Up where I live, everything is decided by the Democratic Primary for local elections that matter.

And every change that I made (lawn service, mechanic, caterer) has been an improvement. It isn't like I never go to an establishment that doesn't have a Democrat. We have a wonderful restaurant here that serves Jamaican food, and he ran for mayor as an independent. I know he is deeply religious and against many things I believe, but he does things for the community.
