Maybe it’s a generational divide or something, but I would lose my fucking mind if my partner for life were braindead enough to support trump. Maybe Clinton v Dole was just a more reasonable thing to disagree with your spouse about (idk, I wasn’t there, and I don’t care enough to look into it, don’t @ me), but a disagreement in 2024 fundamentally is about democracy v fascism, helping people v hurting people, and decency v shameless petulance. A politically split household in 2024 is not a team or a partnership in any meaningful way. Just fucking get a divorce already because you’ve clearly married the wrong person! There’s absolutely no fucking way I could cohabitate with, let alone share a bed with somebody who wants women, children, immigrants, minorities, LGBTQ+ people, and poor people to be punished in every aspect of life for not being financially comfortable, straight, white, cis men. Truly incomprehensible. “But taxes! But gas prices!” No. Just no. You’re clearly not actually paying attention if you think that literally anything would be better for you under trump. There would be short term gains at the expense of long term collapse, just like what happened when you gave him the keys last time.
And I don’t mean you specifically. Just the rhetorical “you” for anybody it would apply to.
This could be its own post. I posted there about going to get a haircut and asking if sport clips is more or less the Hooters of haircut places. (I’ve never been to sport clips)
