Frankly, we no longer discuss politics. We (my in-laws) are all aware of the polarization. I have no illusions of changing their minds and I'm sure they know they couldn't change mine. The issue is now avoided.
The tax cuts were very helpful for them. They are in the high brackets. I find the focus on this incredible selfish and self centered because we all know the damage it will cause in the long run.
The RW hatred of the Clinton presidency, emergence of Rush and RW radio along with Faux news have created a polarized environment where we can no longer even establish a "reality" to discuss how to deal with it.
