(8,445 posts)He actually said he was wrong, but now I'm suspecting he's just saying it so I won't divorce him. That makes him a Trumpkin and a liar. If we weren't so intertwined with business I'd already have him gone. I'm honestly still in shock that everything I thought I knew about him is wrong. I don't know him at all.
Like you, my brother is also a Trumpkin. During the primaries he told me he didn't like Trump at all, but now he's all in on Trump. That makes him a hypocrite, so I'm thinking I don't need him in my life either. More than anything, like many right wing nuts, he is anti-Hillary. I just don't have any patience or tolerance for a grown-ass man who has never been open-minded enough to allow the facts into his mind. So I'm done. We've never been all that close anyway, so I won't miss him much.
What saves me is that my children (all grown) feel the same way I do. And they think my husband is bat-shit crazy. I'm not alone like you, but I do understand your pain. I hope DU is a place that gives you some sense of inclusiveness. I can't even express what it did to me to not be able to come here and read (I don't post much, but read often) on election night and the nightmare days that followed because of some f-ing loser horrid person who couldn't stand that we're allowed to having differing views in this country....at least for the time being. Time will tell on that issue.
