My sister went full blown right wing “Christian “ Trumper. We barely talk. Haven’t seen each other in years

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 year ago

Nearly my entire family went full-tilt Trump and it blew me away. He was everything I had always been taught not to be and here was my family, that I loved, all head-over-heels for this conman.

I withdrew from the family and stopped talking anything politics with them for years. It's only been the last year or so that everyone in my family has woken up to what a pathetic girfter Trump is. Everyone except my brother who I don't talk to anymore. I hope some day he grows up and realizes how many vulnerable people he has to hurt to feel like an "alpha".

I miss him. He used to be a genuinely sweet person.
