2 Trumpers were telling me about how terrible California was, full of Democrats. Now I know from experience that it is impossible to debate stupid so I just told them a story. I live in a small rural borough in central Pa. we always have a 4th of July parade. I told them about one parade back in the early 70's when our 2 state Reps., 1 a Republican, 1 a Democrat, rode in the parade in the same car.

The one Trumper said now they hate each other. I asked him why, he had no answer. I told him it is crazy to get so riled up over politics. I told him that his side wants him to hate people just because they are Democrats. I said back in the 70's our Republican Rep rode in the same car with our Democratic Rep., what changed? I said to him that if I hated Republicans I wouldn't have anybody to golf with today.
