My Best Friend is a Trump Supporter

[Siwsan]

16. Life, my patience and my temper are too short, so I avoid them whenever possible

I have a couple of cousins who are pretty right wing extreme. One is a big time trump* supporter, and he always carries a gun. Everywhere he goes. And he's paranoid. His own sister is afraid to go to his house, unannounced. He no longer comes over to my house.

My late aunt's niece (by marriage) is a big trump* supporter. She thought it was funny to call my mother, who was suffering from the onset of dementia, at the time, and get her all worked up over ridiculous Breitbart 'talking points'. Then I'd have to deal with the aftermath. And, yes, she knew about my political beliefs, which is why she thought it was funny. I'll give her credit that when I confronted her, and demanded she stop doing that, she did. I was shocked.

The day after my aunt died, we were cleaning out her room at the assisted living center. This woman showed up, knowing I would be there and I'd be grieving. She was wearing a big trump* campaign button. She never, ever visited my aunt. This was just a cruel gesture, on her part.

I chose to ignore the vicious immaturity, for my own sake - definitely not hers. My brother escorted her out and I haven't seen or heard from her, since.

I won't even go into my experience with a former co-worker. All I will say is this trump* supporter is the most vile individual I have ever personally encountered, during my chocked-full of experiences lifetime. Her Karma will likely be epic.
