    This hits home because I just got custody of my gay niece from Florida. (I’m not sure if it’s much better in TN with me.). She asked me last night why I cared about politics. I explained to her that my votes now shape her life for when she is an adult. I try to use that reframing with all my conservative friends. It’s not about me, it’s about her.
