You do you but I refuse to embrace family members who vote for someone like Trump. It’s like turning a blind eye to people in the South who threw rocks at Black children integrating schools or Black people sitting at Whites Only lunch counters. Nope
DP.
Ironically, this means that you would exclude from your table my BIPOC FIL who was not allowed to attend integrated schools until high school. He voted for Trump.
Seems your lunch counter is exclusionary.

Here's how I see it. I love my husband, and I love my relatives who voted for the person I detest and totally lack respect for. #47 has cost me plenty already, because I think he has greatly weakened my country. (And I love America! even though I don't put flags all over myself).
We won't talk politics, at all. We will appreciate being together, the kids being a year older, the good food, the traditions. Geez, some of these people may not be alive next year. (We're getting up there).
I don't understand how anyone could vote for Trump, and I loathe him, but I also love people I have known for years, and I hope they'll figure out how wrong their vote was. But we're not talking about that on Turkey Day.
Sorry, but I would consider divorce. Voting for Trump in 2024 is inexcusable. And I'm friends with someone who voted for Trump. I draw the line at being married to one.
DP. I wouldn't want someone like you in my house. No extremists, and you are most definitely an extremist.

Your grotesque hyperbole is doing you no favors. Don't forget to compare him to Hitler and throw in a few "concentration camps" for good measure.![]()

Masked men abducting people off the street and sending them to foreign countries without due process is not hyperbole. You’re the obe who mentioned Hitler. Maybe try some anti-cult therapy. Seems like it could help.
But that's not what you said, is it? You claim that voting for Trump is the same as "turning a blind eye" to segregation and to people throwing rocks at black children. That is indeed disgusting hyperbole. You seem to have no concept of reality, the reality being that NONE of that is occurring, or even close to it.
And I have no idea what an "obe" is, nor do I care.
Obe is a typo for “one”. Maybe look up the term simile and then seek help. The fact that you don’t know that Noem and Trump and Miller are allowing ICE to abduct people off the street and send them to foreign countries without due process is VERY disturbing.
