In reply to the discussion: To my family who chose Trump over me: Was it worth it? (CNN article) [View all]hkp11
(287 posts)This part about his opinion really was emotional:
"We had allowed a complete stranger to vaporize our family. A bond that spans The Beatles and swing sets, Frisbee tournaments in the street, sitting front row together at "E.T.," late-night cruises in your car while blasting Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run" album and me nervously pinning on your boutonniere on the day of your wedding.
So, here we are now, on the series finale of "The Apprentice: White House Edition," after millions of citizens in the single largest election in American history have united to say, "You're Fired." As he now shuffles his sad shell off the national stage, what happens to us and our family?
The question remains: "Was it worth it?"
I don't know. You're the only ones who can answer that. I also don't know what the future holds for us or even if we have one. You were the person who closed the door on our relationship -- and you hold the key to reopening it.
I just know this: A resolution and reconciliation can't begin until you can say the words, "I hear you and I'm sorry" and most importantly, "that's not who I am."
Then and only then, will we be able to begin to heal our relationship.
Whatever you ultimately decide, please know this -- I love you. After everything else he's taken from us, he doesn't get to claim my love for you. That's forever."
This will be the hard part - love - the former love from Drumpf supporters for their families/friends who they dropped for this narcistic non-human that they haven't even met. Throwing away their relationships for this monster. You have to wonder when they will see the light of the con.
