Dark Secret

My mom is in love with Donald Trump and we fight over it constantly. I tell her not to take candy from anyone on his campaign team, she says I’d she doesn’t answer then I will know they finally came for her.

@SatuUnelmia I'm sorry, that sucks. My wife can barely talk to her sister now, for that very reason.

@TwiHusband We still talk, it’s just at a much higher volume than others would find healthy 😂

@SatuUnelmia @TwiHusband My family has a “No politics, no religion” rule for all family gatherings.

Alcohol is encouraged.

@cjcrew @TwiHusband I don’t drink but my family doesn’t gather much either. My mom just starts yelling she’s getting heartburn and I stop talking for a moment and change the subject completely. So does she.

She is 100% certain the election was stolen from him, that’s my are you stupid button and we start up. I love her but she’s not the same person as she has aged.

If I can deal with her, nobody online even phases me now.

@SatuUnelmia @TwiHusband My older brother and his wife live Rump. My sis-in-law and I almost got into it at Christmas but she calmed me down. I can’t deal with him. His evil is so deep and so intense I have trouble understanding how everyone can’t see it. I had enough psychology to understand most of it but it still puzzles me that we are sometimes unable to see what is right in front of us.

@cjcrew @TwiHusband I’m independent and have voted republican before.

My issue that will stop me voting for any republican from here on is the Supreme Court unbalanced and partisan voting. I just can’t trust because I think highly of someone that they won’t screw me and vote with their party to take any more of the rights I feel should be my decision to make. My body my choice, I would choose pro life for myself under healthy and safe circumstances. It should be my decision though.

@SatuUnelmia @TwiHusband All we can do is vote, well I suppose working in campaigns of candidates you support too if you have the time. And you won’t find anyone who agrees with you in everything which is why we have to learn to be accepting, although I find a lot of what Republicans hold dear to be greatly offensive and cruel. I have voted Republican, I was a Reagan Republican in the 80s, but I’ve grown and I’ve learned that we all do best when all of us have actual equal opportunity.

@SatuUnelmia @TwiHusband BTW, I’m not too thrilled with the Democrats right now either. I say pick a damn side and quit compromising with evil. There is a line that must be drawn and it is here.

@SatuUnelmia @TwiHusband I’ve never had to make that decision but I want it there in case my nieces or other young women need it. That is a personal choice and should not be dictated by religion. Religion is NOT how our laws work.

@SatuUnelmia @TwiHusband I haven’t found a Teoublican worth voting for since the early 80s. And if I’d j own then what I know now I wouldn’t have voted for those Republicans. Until they accept that it’s as important to take care of the human Americans as it is to take care of the American major corporations, they are dead to me. These are not the same Republicans we had in the 50s and 69s, and they are far worse than the ones from the 80s.

This is all Newt’s fault.

@SatuUnelmia @TwiHusband We do major holidays and if I could get my coworker to share Thanksgiving hours with me I’d be down to just Christmas.

Thanksgiving is with my brother’s in-laws and they’re nice people but they are people and I’d rather stay home. But it’s a major holiday and etiquette dictates you be social of you get visited by three ghosts.

@cjcrew @TwiHusband my brother and sister took different routes than I did in life, they are very republican. They are very involved in the community with successful businesses. We don’t argue though. If any of us asks to change the topic, we just move on. It’s actually great in that area.
