To my family who chose Trump over me: Was it worth it? (CNN article)

30. I hope so. It's very hard in my family, even though we all try to refrain from politics when we are

togteher. I hope I am not going to have to write a letter like this soon. I have been gracious and have kept my mouth shut during the Trump years around my family to keep the peace (well, for the most part, however they were the antagonists). We have had a few minor spats, but mostly my MD brother and I were on one side and the rest of them on the other.

I would just leave the room and go to my own room where I was staying when things heated up. I don't know if they are going to be able to do the same for me. They seem to enjoy inflicting cruelty.

It's really sad, but I don't think they will. My republican brother and sister have not returned my friendly calls about the holidays (no mention of the election was ever made or implied - I would never rub it in their faces). It makes me so upset that they would choose this horrible, evil person over a member of their own family. In fact, it makes me sick. But if that is what this is, then there is nothing I can do.

I will just have to accept what is right now. I'm ok with it. But very sad.
