I work on a ship and when the crew is on their break and they have the TV on, it's almost always on the news and they are almost entirely cracking jokes and laughing about this madness.

Even people who I considered to be relatively conservative are shaking their heads and throwing their arms in the air.

Among my friends, my FB has actually been quiet... and that's AFTER I deleted all the Trump goons. But I notice a lot of people who have not traditionally been political, voicing their opinions and sharing political memes. It really flared up with the Muslim ban, though.
