"Hi Dad. Your vote verifies that you are OK with me living in a world where Trump is a role model for success. Trump stands as a reminder that I can be the world's most qualified woman, and still be defeated by the world's most disgusting man. He stands as a reminder that a man can insult and mock every cultural group but his own, and still rise to power. Your vote makes me wonder if you want the world to change for me. Your vote makes me question if you have any concern for people who are dissimilar to yourself."

Dana, 23

"Dada: Your vote lets me know that my future isn't your concern. You let me know that as a woman whose career is in fighting for access to safe and legal abortion care — as a woman who had an abortion a month before you cast a vote for a candidate who thinks both providers and patients should be punished for personal health care decisions — I am not a person whose safety or wellbeing you take seriously; that I am not a person you want to protect; that I, the daughter who you raised to challenge the word 'no' and take pride in my strong will and individuality, am not a person who matters to you."

"Dear Dad, when you express support for Trump because 'that's how the Church says you should vote,' it tells me that you are so interested in being what you think is a 'good Catholic' that you forgot how to be a Christian."

"I've never doubted that you love me. Your vote makes me feel like you don't respect me."
