I have to vent. I have a big problem.

13. Agreed and well-said

Same situation between my younger brother and I. We don't discuss politics anymore, other than me occasionally asking him if he's learned to speak Russian yet. I can out-argue him with facts and figures, and he gets pissed. Not like his usual laid-back and humorous self.

Out of 5 kids, he and I are the only ones left. Parents are gone. Can't let go of so much love and history. He's always been there for me, no matter what, and some truly horrendous situations.

I attribute his attitudes to the people he works with, his in-laws, and Fox News. Our Mom was a hard-core Dem to the day she died (she loved Hillary, even before she ran for office). Our Dad was apolitical.

He's my brother, and I love him dearly. Even when he's wrong.
