Your experience with friends from the GOP is not a normal one for most of us. We have lost so many friends over Trump I have lost count. One of them my husband works with at the University, he glares at my husband every time he sees him now. We were friends, close friends for over 20 years pre-Trump.

Others we have lost over the science related to COVID. I'm glad your friends get it, but the large majority of Republicans do not!
