re: Just got into it with my mom..

I have plenty of family members and family friends that recently have been talking the same way. These people never liked Trump to began with but over the last few months, they talk daily about how mean and crazy he is.

Every sentence with them begins with people/they (media, social media, friends) are saying this. No original thoughts. Can’t name most of the policies Trump supports, and why they dislike them. They’ll see some negative news piece or even theory regarding Trump, and they’ll take it as 100% truth. No speculation, just accept it right off the bat.

They’ll blame him for every little thing. I’m not a huge fan of him but it drives me crazy. You can’t argue with them because won’t listen. Won’t even give a simple rebuttal to anything I say.

The only good thing is they do acknowledge Biden sucks too but they hate Trump way more. But even with that, they criticize Trump for things Biden also does. Either they don’t know or they don’t care. They believe what they want to believe.

I completely understand if people don’t like a politician. Especially Trump. But at least be able to articulate why, and have an open mind. If you look at situation with your mind already made it, you’ve lost.

All of this sums up politics in this country and it’s sad and scary.
