3. My son told me this a few months back -- I said, "are you Fn kidding me?"

That's when I learned he believes a lot of this BS, so I suspect his new in-laws who live in a red part of the state, or perhaps his co-workers (he's a firefighter). Don't know and I didn't ask. I only told him to please please please check his sources and realize there is a lot of misinformation out there. Verify, double-check, don't believe everything you hear. It broke my heart but I had to get over it. I have not spoken of it since. I'm waiting until after the election.

There is simply no way to convince someone of a different viewpoint if they are seeing the misinformation daily. Watching Fox? Nope, not going to be interested. My sister's husband is a Fox fan. She's not really a believer in much of anything but goes along with him to keep the peace, and votes with him because she's not that interested. I know, right?
