Talk to your BF or Bull. More than likely they are voting for Trump!

Your husband’s bf, not likely.

He's voting for Harris

Both parties are awful.
I'm completely disillusioned with our "democracy." It's actually rather freeing to feel this way. And pathetic to watch a bunch of people get all self-righteous about how horrible Trump is but who can't bring themselves to give two sh**ts about children being blown to bits and starved to death with US tax dollars.

Honestly I agree PP.
And this prob sounds desperate-but I’m at the point where at least with trump he’s going to push an immediate end to the war.
Some will say “yeah but that will come
with huge casualty costs all at once in a final blitz attack” and that may be true. I don’t know. But people need to be able to stop living in constant fear, feed their families, and pick up the pieces of their lives and rebuild in Gaza. As it is, they are stuck in purgatory that has no end.
And Biden/Harris admin has shown us that they will just let it go on and on andin and will prolong it. She has said she was in the room and part of every major decision if consequence in his administration so I have to believe that she would do no different.

Your dh is being realistic. You are redirecting your anxiety about the election into anger at him. This is a you problem, not a him problem.

But then why do people do those things?

Agree with PP, it doesn't make a difference. People do it to feel engaged and build community... but you're not changing minds at this point. You should look to be more like your DH... this is beyond your control and you shouldn't be letting it impact your life and relationships like this.

We have very little control over the outcome and things like canvassing only soothe your anxiety. They don’t actually do much.

I love in Maryland, a solid blue state. My vote for either candidate, or to not vote at all makes no difference.

Could not agree more. Everyone on DCUM with their panties in a wad about this when it doesn’t matter one bit. VA and MD are going for Harris whether you vote or not. But go on berating your husband for not canvassing.

Believe it or not most people in swing states are not obsessed about this. Politics is a passing conversation not people’s lives. Ironic because our votes might actually decide the election.

Looks like VA is coming into play. Trump is moving on from NC and into VA to campaign. If he wins VA it is over.

I’ll have some of what you’re smoking. There is no way Trump is winning VA. Have you read this thread??

I love him but it’s infuriating. And for everyone saying all we can do is vote, that’s not true! Yes vote, but there are a lot of things you can do: donate, door knock, talk to undecided friends/family, sign up to text, volunteer on Election Day…

Your DH is likely voting for Trump and not telling you.

And I think this happening more than anyone wants to admit.

The amount of canvassing, non-stop ads, constant candidate visits in my swing state is so insane that everybody is sick of it all. Everyone has already picked their candidates anyway. I do think we’ll swing red this time, though.

Yep. Agree..it is looking that way.

People are calling her crazy.

Nope: crime is down, not up. The other two issues were exacerbated by Trump era policies that we are still dealing with.

How can people spout this nonsense.

Because no one fact-checks the left.
And when they do (like during the debate where Miur “fact-checked” Trump on this) and then a week later when the FBI says “oops our stats were wrong, crime did actually go up”—-they correct it quietly with a footnote that no one sees unless they are consuming “conservative” media.
Go ahead, Google it, PP. Crime is UP and FBI confirmed it.

We won’t hold our breath for an apology.

Anyone who couldn’t tell crime is up is a moron. All you need to do it be alive. I don’t need left or right wing news to tell me it’s up or down.

I am the meh spouse. It my DH asked me to canvas and write letters I’d probably divorce him. You are way too invested. No one is changing their mind at this point.

DH is probably secreting voting for Trump.

You need to divorce this loser. Not only is my husband canvassing and volunteering for Harris but he’s doing it with my boyfriend as well. I’m so proud of both of them!
