just kidding. i played poker with one of them this summer in LA. really nice guy we played together for hours when suddenly he proclaims trump the best president we ever had. clearly extremely low info. We had a rousing discussion during which I got way too emotional...he pulled out his phone to show me a video of fox news blaming the child kidnappings at the border on Bill clinton. why didn't i pull out my phone?? instead i just said something contemptuous about fox news.

most of all i blame myself for not simply telling him, you're a black man. do you really not know that trump would sooner see you dead than to govern in your best interests??

anyhow. it never got hostile (well maybe me a little, but he was more amused and told me he loved me). on the other hand i doubt i was able to teach him a single thing. maybe planted a seed. it's so hard for me to get why any POC or woman for that matter could support a man so thoroughly dreadful, sick, twisted, and disgusting. trump hates us all.
