I follow intelligent folks + those who make me 😂
I block the stupid and uninteresting
Good luck on your journey.
I’m rooting for you… for all of us. 🕊️

I think the other thing that really helped was that I would ask probing questions like “what is it you like about Trump?” and he didn’t have a good answer. In his mind, he was voting for the GOP agenda which he now understands is a racist farce.

Plus, the golf guys convinced him he was nuts. 😂

The first implosion to his thinking was trump’s treatment of Zelensky / Ukraine invasion followed by the events of Jan 6.

He finally saw trump for the conman that he is and began to read more factual info as opposed to the Fox-QAnon nonsense that saturated his newsfeed.

Thank you for sharing this. 🕊️

Exactly ! One of many reasons I find it so baffling 😕

You're sure a feisty one.
I love that 😉

Sending you a holiday hug from this old Nana.
I hope you celebrate in ways that lift you up.
PS. Don't let the bastards get ya down.

No problem. We've probably covered all the ground we can and I appreciate your honesty and your viewpoint, even though we can't agree on certain points.

I wrestle with my hatred of DJT every minute of every day; but he's a single tumor, not the root cause.

I can only imagine the hurt you feel toward them. I'm so sorry.
You have to do what is best for you.
I wish you nothing but peace and kindness for your journey.

The conclusion that people -- all people -- are inherently flawed.

The conclusion that people tend to fight for their own worldview, no matter how right/wrong.

The conclusion that it is through finding common ground and challenging the evil thinking in that person that has the power to change them

Try not to beat me up so hard. I may not do things your way, but I can do my best to sway people who have trusted me as a friend or relative and take them on one misguided rotten thinker at a time.

Not only that, I was born into and raised by them! If only you knew my life story.

But now, I'm an old woman with a few good years left in my life.

And for the record, I've had a few successes, including friends who have changed to democrat or independent party voting and have begun to evolve.

...which would simply secure them even more fully to their trumpian belief system.

What I will do -- only up to a point -- is point out how desperately wrong they are and help them understand why.

We do agree on this -- for some, I would not expend the breath it takes to tell them otherwise.
December 20, 2025 at 6:15 PM
I disagree. I have no where stated that we are hanging out on a daily basis. What I have not done is shun them or angrily dismiss them from interaction because of their rigid and deeply ingrained political and religious views.
December 20, 2025 at 6:15 PM
You are quite mistaken. I loathe him and everything associated with him. Next question ?
December 20, 2025 at 6:10 PM
Respectfully, I'm uncertain as to how, based on my original post or responses, that is the conclusion you've reached ?
December 20, 2025 at 6:10 PM
Your vantage point appears to be as narrow as theirs.
Peace to you. 🕊️

We must stand together, educate, and fight for the Rule of Law and demand that those who are truly Evil meet the just ending they have earned. 🕊️
