Everyone is trashy to someone else, only the women care. Smoking weed and hunting off the front porch is the American dream.

If I even suspected I'd have to deal with a person that had TDS to the point it would be brought up, I wouldn't be around them... that includes family. I've cut off communication with idiots.

Is your wife now conservative? That's interesting if she was raised in an uber-liberal household.
No only my wife, but her brother is ultra Maga.

I have a cousin that I'm close to who is an old school liberal. He's a super intelligent attorney and I'm looking forward to hear his take on the election. But he's not one of the modern sky screaming Democrats.

Everyone that will be around my dinner table this Thanksgiving are MAGA AF. We will be toasting the Orange One.

Well, not this year since I'm still in long term recovery from a pretty invasive ankle surgery and still getting around on one leg for at least another month at best.
My usual gathering is around 25 people, so a very mixed bag of political ideology and I'm more than glad to not have to deal with any of it.
I've never been fond of arguments over politics or religion since most people are firmly set in their beliefs and no amount of arguing is going to change their opinion.

Interesting. Do they clash with their parents a lot?

My lesbian in laws who love Trump will eat happily at my table, as they always have.

We don't have any crazy libs in our immediate family.
We don't hang out with or talk to my mom's crazy family in Minnesota.
She grew up on a farm with 9 brothers/sisters. Somehow they all ended up in the brainwash cult.

Our whole family knows how I feel. My nephew just got engaged to a lib from Delaware or some other shithole and I've been told she's a whacko. Don't understand why he'd go that route (he's a duck hunter - or was) but hey, pussy's undefeated.
It'll be ok if she keeps her mouth shut. If not it's on - Trump dance and LGB shirt.

My wife and I will be visiting the in-laws next week for what could be an interesting Thanksgiving. Their both liberal but my MIL is of the Gloria Steinem cut and we haven't spoke since the elections.
What I have discovered over the past several years is some of the topics I wouldn't necessarily consider to be political are perceived as political by those on the left.....it's not easy being around those on the left for any lengthy amount of time without risking saying something they would deem offensive.

Isn't that nice? If I have to change my behavior to be around someone, I dont want to be around them especially at the holidays. I've got better things to do with people I like and love.
Agreed…
It wan’t behavior though. They simply took it upon themselves to alienate themselves because they are the ones who couldn’t tolerate conservative opinions, and seeing the overwhelming majority of my extended family are pretty staunch conservatives, their opinions are what apparently offended them. One wrote her entire family off, a really confused human being, and the other was just a true believer who preaches tolerance but hates putting it into practice in her own life.
