11. I have 5 brothers and sisters 2 out of 6 of us are Trump lovers

My oldest brother Trump lover just never talks about it...he never talks about anything. And my little sister is a conservative Jew. She lives in never, never land and ignores all the antisemitism and only pays attention to the Israeli support. We rarely talk. Funny how those 2 are the richest of all of us. Money makes you heartless and cruel.

The other 3 hate Trump as much as I do and we 4 are always talking to each other.

My big sister sent me this image this morning, she said it made her cry. I understand.

Really glad I don't have to worry about anyone in my family voting for Trump mr_lebowski Jun 2019 #1
