My dad used to listen to NPR but somewhere along the way NPR got replaced with Rush and Drudge. Thankfully he died before our relationship could be ruined by Trump but I know he would have been and I know it would have broken us.

You should watch, "The Brainwashing of my Dad" documentary. Sad reality for so many.

This is spot on. Mine is still alive (mom too) and Trump made me realize who they really are. It’s not pretty.

Basically yeah.

I was married for 30 years. (Not to a Republican, tho.)
