Breakup over the orange one

Anonymous wrote:My mom and my cousin have both told me that my aunt & uncle have been fighting quite a bit, and it started leading up to the election. Both my aunt & uncle are Republicans. However, he's a Maga Republican and she's not. She did vote for Trump the first time but was disgusted with how his term went and the path he led the US.

She also has very strong feelings about abortion as healthcare because she suffered 3 miscarriages, 2 of which required DNCs and 1 of the pregnancies was very life-threatening to my aunt. It's why they never attempted trying to conceive again. My cousin also had a missed miscarriage and required a DNC. My aunt has said she refuses to vote for any candidate who supports banning abortion or birth control. That's not been cool with my uncle. He was also upset she did not vote for Trump this last time. I guess my aunt let it out that she voted for Biden in 2020 and my uncle was so furious that he left a spent a week at their nearby cabin solo.

My cousin thinks they'll get a divorce because my aunt is "seeing the light". My cousin is very liberal and has always been at odds with her parents when politics came into play.

Free at last, free at last.

My marriage may not survive the administration

I don't know if the Boomer generation will breakup. But I witnessed my in-laws have more strain and the MIL confided in me she never would've married FIL if she knew he'd end up like this.

I think there are a lot of couples where the man, instead of watching golf like days past, instead spends most of his time watching Fix News or on social media or listening to Rogan-like shows. The wives are generally still out in the community and involved as they always were with grandkids, churches, etc. So they are trying to stay apolitical and their husbands are getting more extreme.

Agree.

Younger generations, mine included, have lost their minds of politics.

It's not politics. The fact that you don't get it says everything. It’s not left or right. It's right and wrong.

Women are much better than men at hiding their extreme political views. Namely, women are less likely to share with strangers their political views. It's not until post election when we realize all these women voted in a way we didn't expect.

NP. This is exactly how I feel.

DH and I have different political views, but the basic values are the same.

I’m a democrat who is also critical of my own party. DH is an independent, which honestly annoys me a little, because I think independents don’t sufficiently acknowledge the current limitations of the system we need to work with. But our basic values align.

But we do fight about politics a bit. He’s more of an extremist and idealist. I’m more pragmatic and logical.

But if he voted for Trump, I’d have serious thoughts about divorcing. Because it tells me something about his values which completely goes against mine.

So you husbands values are, secure boarders, not funding wars all over the globe, an actual primary election process?

Trump bragged about deporting 300 people when Biden was deporting 700/day.

She isn’t divorcing her h because he wants the border secured, she divorcing him because he’s too stupid to understand Obama and Biden did a better job than Trump at it.

Correction the idiot TRIED to deport 300 but failed because the receiving country didn’t let the plane land so Biden 700 Frump 0.

It’s pathetic how bad he is at this.

I understand you guys dislike him and I your frustrations make sense. However to downplay his attempt at reporting more people dally is the fact reason why Democrats lost the election. A politician greatest attest is their ability to read the room.

I thought you guys liked him because you thought he wasn't a politician?

if those are his values, DIVORCE HIM IMMEDIATELY! OMG !!!!!!!!

Men or woman are pigs depending on your situation. Divorce them immediately or leave them if you are not married. I am 100% always right so trust me.

I am a Trump voter and lied to DH about it to keep the peace. He would probably be OK with me doing it, but it’s just easier this way.

People get so wrapped up in politics and cutting off loved ones who vote differently; they would be better served by building their identities in the community, church, or friends and familial relationships.

I can see how people w/political differences could have a relationship however Trump is in a league all his own.

He is (obviously!) a liar, cheater, racist, misogynist, homophobe as well as a felon….
And in my own personal opinion any person who is okay with someone w/those characteristics leading our nation is definitely not someone I would want to invest myself with.

To me it is just pure, good old-fashioned common sense that any decent person would not want to be associated w/someone with such immoral lack of character.

Opposite political views is one thing. Difference in morality is completely different.

This is what it comes down to. But Trump voters keep gaslighting everyone including themselves and saying “it’s just politics!”

No, it’s not. It was never just politics with Trump. If you are a Trump voter you’re either too dumb, full of hate, or selfish to admit or see it. Those are the three types of Trump voters. And as Hilary Clinton once said, they’re all deplorable.

This. And when they are in a space space where they feel comfortable sharing unorthodox political views boy do they come out swinging

I don’t care about personal stuff. I am a woman. I hated Biden. He has a long history of wars breaking out, including Iraq. I care more about foreign policy and people dying rather than what most men have done in their personal lives if they are of a certain age.

Oh this should be fun
