1. Welcome to DU!

Sorry about the Auntie, though. I have a couple of cousins that I'm separated from, thankfully by miles, because of their ideology. I have neither the time or the patience for dealing with the mindset of a trumpelthinskin.

2. WELCOME!

3. WELCOME

4. Welcome to DU Tbear and Happy Holidays

She said that Obama and Hillary are going down? Down where?

Forgive my lame attempt at humor. On a serious note, it's too bad you had to deal with that nonsense today. You don't have to put up with that in your own home. Maybe it's just as well that she left. She sounds toxic.

6. Welcome to DU and believe me,

your story is similar to MANY of your fellow DU'ers! Fortunately, I'm not one of them as my entire family (including cousins) are a bunch of "bleeding heart Liberals" (thank God).

[Aristus]

5. Welcome to DU!

I'm a union-supporter, 100%.

[WomanWhoRoars]

8. The Trump Davidians....

...have wrapped their egos around Don. They simply CANNOT even entertain the idea that their supreme leader might go down.

[Demtexan]

9. Did good.

The truth bothers some people.

10. No. Dessert. For Her.

14. Welcome to DU!

So many people don't know that most of the rules and benefits that workers take for granted now exist because of unions fighting for them.

[StevieM]

15. Welcome to DU!! But I don't know if it matters to some people if the truth comes out.

They will just reject the facts and the evidence.

16. Welcome Tbear

i know how you feel re: your aunt. I have a brother in law who proclaims himself as a republican but doesn't quite understand the issues, and is only republican because his parents are. I don't talk to him when we have family gatherings and for the most part ignore the loud mouthed idiot. Sometimes the truth hurts but you have to break it to them.

17. I do not know if he will go down for money laundering but I do think he will go down as

the worst President in US history but regardless welcome to DU.

20. Welcome to DU

but the relatives that would have said something like your Aunt in my family would have been my brother and sister. We don't speak anymore. We really haven't spoken since 2012 when Obama was re-elected.
happy holidays.

[Laffy Kat]

21. Welcome, Tbear.

You may always take comfort here. Most of us have at least one of those relatives. Did your aunt honestly think you'd agree with her? LOL. I'm sure you had a better time w/o her.

[elfin]

22. Yes, "comfort" is the key word for this hidey hole, when we are buffeted by current events...

or friends who surprise and disappoint us with their heretofore undisclosed beliefs, or family who decide to make family gatherings a platform for divisive and excited utterances that are contrary to logic and human decency.

Take comfort and wallow in sanity here.

[raven mad]

23. Welcome to DU!

Daughter of a union leader and lifelong Dem here, too!

[A HERETIC I AM]

25. "that's when she got mad and immediately left."

Sooooo...all in all, a good evening, eh?

[dflprincess]

26. Welcome

I must be behind in right wing fantasies I had't heard about "Hezbollah drugs" - what's that supposed to be about?

[gopiscrap]

27. Welcome to DU

[Historic NY]

28. Well it is a way to get rid of undesirables.

who want to spoil dinner for others.

[orleans]

29. hey, republicans are generally annoying

btw--i don't think "cedar savage" was anyone's name here

[orleans]

34. not that i can tell from a google search

you'd have to ask someone with a star by their name; they can do a search for members--i can't. not anymore.

[Rhiannon12866]

35. I checked and we do have a member by that name who joined DU.1 in early 2003

But hasn't been here on DU.3 - and we moved here in December 2011. Could this be your Dad? BTW, welcome to DU! It's great to have you with us!

https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=profile&uid=122030

[Rhiannon12866]

37. Well, that's the only member with that exact name, so it probably is your Dad

Welcome to DU, Tbear! It's great to have you with us!

[Shrike47]

30. If you see her again, ask her when the crimes were committed. Statute of limitations.

It’s 5 years after the crime was committed for many crimes, whether or not it was noticed at the time. Hillary’s time has probably run out. She left government service more than 5 years ago.

[lame54]

32. Should have brought up Trump's demise sooner...

More leftovers for you
