[quote=Anonymous]Not to get arm-chair shrink on you OP, but I do think this is some sort of a middle-age crisis. I have seen many, many men your DH's age who are hit with the realization that they are older, their bodies are failing, they haven't accomplished what they want to in life, it's all downhill from here, etc, who succumb to the "old white guy" syndrome, the classic stereotype of the right wing GOP. They realize the world is no longer as they once knew it and they are no longer "in control," so to speak, so they react like this, to give them a feeling of control and power. I don't think it's that unusual, although your DH sounds a little extreme. In other words, I think there is something more going on here than just a political reaction/ statement. That may be how it's manifesting itself, but I think your DH is either depressed or suffering from middle age angst.[/quote]
