(10,885 posts)18. I feel for you.
Last week I had a similar encounter with my BFF for 58 years, and I'm still reeling from it. Mine was over the phone as I called to wish them a happy 55th anniversary, as I do every year having been a bridesmaid in their wedding.
Our conversation turned to COVID, and the tRump crap came spewing forward. I had to tell her that we couldn't discuss anything tRump as I wanted to come away from the call loving her as much as when I went into the call.
The shock is that I had no idea she and her entire family are tRumpers. We live a distance away, haven't been together since their 50th anniversary party in 2015, and never spoke of politics during our calls. I shake my head in disbelief.
