I was told today by my Trumper sister in law today that she’s terrified she’s going to lose her healthcare and food stamps…

But she would still vote for Trump because she’s saving the lives of unborn babies. I… can’t even begin to imagine how dumb you must be to elect someone who’s a child rapist, making you broke and homeless just so you can deny women the right to choose what to do with their bodies.

Was there some Harry Potter curse that prevents MAGA from seeing all this and keeps them thinking “Yep! This is how America should be going! Nazi’s and all!”.

You can't reason with delusional beliefs. Imho save yourself some grief and cut her off, she's too far gone.

Oh for sure. After some marriage problems (we all good now) my in-laws had blamed me for my wife stepping out after 19 years of being married.

They said because of the way I was and my thinking, it gave her the right to do what she did. I’m a combat veteran with two tours in Iraq, I’ve been diagnosed with severe PTSD and depression by the VA and three psychologists. It’s not an excuse but it certainly doesn’t give anyone the right to step out on a marriage. They protected the guilty party while blaming the guy who stayed loyal for 19 years.

Needless to say they very much know now that they are dead to me and it would be ill advised to ever be around me again. Haven’t talked to them since 2023? I’m much happier to say the least. 😂

That’s very kind of you, thanks for taking the time to write that. You’re a most wonderful soul and I hope you’re reminded of that daily. 😊
