My sister is the only conservative in our family. Her husband's family are all conservative. My mom loves to push their buttons about Trump, I'm less willing to engage because I'm not going to change their minds, so why bother?

I was at my sister's house while her MIL was there, and our mom was not there. I guess my sister and her MIL were feeling cheeky, so they started talking politics at me and asked if I believed in Hunter Biden's laptop.

Yep, I believe he had a laptop.

Did I believe the photos were real?

Yep, that dude's a moron and overall pretty crappy person. If he did something illegal, arrest him, prosecute him, fire him into the sun for all I care.

I have too much sense to follow that up with "... just like Trump and his kids", and thankfully my niece came around to chat and the politics conversation ended.
