The only way my two Trump loving,
evangelical born again brothers and I can coexist is for us to not discuss politics or religion.
I'm 74 years old and in the past they've cut me off for a number of years because I won't agree with them.
We each live in a different state and call each other three or four times a year and get along as long as we do not talk politics or religion.
But I sure as hell would like to know what they are thinking this week.

(147 posts)Last time we group chatted my conservative right wing nut sister from FL started her whataboutism on the BLM, radical left, demented Joe, loser Hillary can you believe that, rants when I mentioned the DC riots incited by her deranged god. She also claims that her cheetolinni would be billed as the best president ever when its all said and done. 😀

(14,962 posts)We are pretty much split red/blue. The way we get along is we don't talk politics, religion or sports. Too divisive. We are all in our 70's now and still get along. Yeah sometimes shit slips out but there is no retaliation, just silence at the "faux pas"... Works for us!
