(2,949 posts)My family gatherings also consist of many Republicans. Primarily they 50ish males. The females are Democratic leaning with the exception of one lady evangelical from the south. She shares most if not all Democratic values, but votes Republican.
Topic on hand. None of my Republican family members shows any support for Trump. Even the southern belle.
As for Kasich from Ohio, we have a similar bum in Michigan. Snyder, who is enjoying his second term of screwing the common folk in this state. The 50ish males all tell me he is doing a good job. Sadly they are in the dark as to reality. We avoid politics for the most part at family gatherings as we all agree family is more important than politics. Hasn't always been this way but fortunately, we all came to this conclusion before we broke apart as a family. A couple of us are very strong in our convictions.
I have not asked any of those scoundrels
what they think of Snyder poisoning the children of Flint, Mi. I did however respond to one when he said something about Snyder being a good governor. "He and his Republican partners have created a state with numerous local communities and school systems falling into bankruptcy."
This brought silence and a change of topic.
Trump does not scare me as far as the election goes. His opinions and support do scare me a bit, what has happened to our country?
