(24,372 posts)I hate the fucking idiots who did this out of sheer ignorance and only watching Faux Snooze,. I hate even more the traitors who did this knowing it puts Putin in charge, knowing the tariffs will destroy us economically, but not caring because they will get lower taxes and pay lower wages and that's all they care about - hurt everyone because it helps them and it's fun hurting women and minorities - the other!
My repug best friend called wondering why I was so upset after I left a message cancelling our usual Friday lunch. I couldn't return her call because I was too full of rage - still am. I love her, we've been friends for 25 years and she's a real standup person, so smart in everything but this. She was telling me last summer that she knew that tcf was a traitor and had sold all our national secrets, then turns around and votes for him over a black woman - I just can't! My counselor said to just give it time to process in my head/heart. We usually never talk politics because we know we disagree and it's ok - usually. But her action of voting for the R this time hurt others, including me and my family, so don;t know what I'm going to do. I have hardly any friends left here, they've all passed or moved away, so I really hate to lose her, we've been important parts of each others' life for so long. It's breaking me.
