Couple Divorces After 22 Years Over Husbands Trump Support

[marc123]

My dad voted for Trump. We're still cool with him, but political discussion has now been taken completely off the table for family peace. It doesn't surprise me, he is white, or so he thought. He took a Ancestry test a few months ago because people always tell him he doesn't look all white. Turns out he 40% black, which comes as a shock to him since he didn't so much as even know any black people coming up. Both of his parents are dead to so no one can even come clean about it. Needless to say, hilarity has ensued.

smh. stopped reading after bolded.

no need to insult ur pops over the internet. so imma jus keep it movin

This makes sense. Liberals / democrats are up to 3 times more likely to unfriend someone over differing political views. They like their safe spaces.

My dad voted for him. Moms, too. My sister would've more than likely, but she was too fuckin lazy to vote. This was the aftermath.

I know this might sound fucked-up, but I just lost a TON of respect for my father over the last two days. Or maybe I'm just furious at this negro for letting Jesus con him (and my mom, and my sister) into voting for that cac fuck. I think what really did it was hearing him say he actually wants Stop & Frisk to go nationwide. I know the neighborhood they live in (Hilltop aka Zombie land) is bad but screaming for genocide by "Law & Order" is almost akin to sellout shit to me.

I'm so GLAD right now we booked our plane tickets to Montreal last week for Thanksgiving. I don't think I could face them without cursing someone out. Maybe Christmas.

I haven't spoken to any of them since X-Mas....

Dude where y'all family from?

You cut your folk off because of their beliefs or religion. It's expressed all in your post. The Trump shit was just the final straw.

Nah. He been in the pulpit for the majority of my life. That doesn't bother me. The Stop and Frisk thing is what's surprising to me, mostly because he has almost no idea how ineffective that shit was, but clamors for it now. To actually WANT that to happen to fellow black folk just seemed off as fuck, no matter how crazy the streets get. No one fucks with him in our neighborhood anyway. He's like the mayor up there.

Fuck a "safe space"...how about simply not wanting to surround yourself with fucked up people/ideas? This warped sense of having to purposely subject yourself to shit you don't like is stupid as fuck. No life ain't always going to go your way, but you're an idiot if you purposely make it harder.

Lol this bitch 73 years old choosing. She just don't like that nigga anymore. She was a prison guard, she been not giving a fuck. Trump ain't change shit.

Your dad low key hates you tho... fucked up. No disrespect. Explains a lot about your posting tho.

Nah, explains more about him. He's basically spent the last almost 40 spending 95% of his time around black people. Ain't that many white people that can do that. He had to have something in him. Still got the other side too though and that's clear from time to time.

And nah, it doesn't explain anything about my posting. Anybody with a brain that reads my posts knows that I'm indifferent towards whites at best.

Yah and since he opporunity presents itself.. them cacs better get out of there with that neo millenial bullshit "safe spaces" that shit is gay as fuck.... it amazes me how certain things become "THINGS" an where they come from

 

[TheNuttinProffessor]

Y'all niggas some fuckin vics and you brainwashed

 

[Mr.LV]

not surprised

personally the last election has impacted relationship with co-workers, family & friends and overall impacted my daily disposition.

couldn't imagine being married to someone who I vehmently disagreed with to that extent

I know some people who stop following each other on facebook because one of them were a Trump supporter.

 

[longhairr]

Welp. We all have different priorities, I guess.

 

[PanchoYoSancho]

Man, I see niggas really taking this shit to heart. I aint a Trump fan, but I wasn't a Hilary fan either so this election was fucked both ways.

But to end relationships, friendships, and relationships over Trump is beyond retarded. It just shows you are not mature enough to respect other people's political opinion.

Bullshit. Trump is a scum of the Earth piece of shit and people who support him, most of them ride or die, get no respect. Most of it has nothing to do with politics even tho his supporters try to use that as their shield with that "bitter libs" speech. If you can ride for someone like Trump, I can't fuck with you on a personal level. Strictly business. Either you feel the same way he does or it doesnt bother you enough to stop you from supporting him.

 

[R.D.]

Why is Trump the scum of the Earth?

Excuse my ignorance, I don't keep up with this shit

i know alotta guys that voted for Trump and they straight in the coon category now or for the white ones racist. At the gym no one takes them seriously. Doing pickup games they the last ones picked and get looked off this shit is real out here.

Theres this white kid at the gym who wore a Trump Pence shirt the morning after the election cheesing and gave his opinion on why he voted for Trump...fast forward to last week I walk in and he's talking to the front desk guy. Front desk guy says damn man you've been here all night, kid says I'm not working. So I step in and say you fuckin leach on society you better get a job before I report you to Trump. I guess I pissed him off because he told another member that Black guy Jairo called me a leach man...LOL

 

[blue_london]

Someone I grew up with voted for brexit and backs trump.

This brings a perfect opportunity to say this..

Alot of people divorce themselves from politics and choose to keep their heads in the ground.. Black people dont have this luxury... or shouldnt carry on like they do.. Politics has effected every facet of our lives as Black people since we were brought here.. We have the unique burden/responsibility to take a keen interest in politics ... from the black codes.. to voting rights, zoning laws, redlining, eminent domain,job placement, education... its endless the reach of white supremacy... (or just an indifference) via POLITICAL maneuvering ...

So yeah i take this shit to heart for me and my people.

Political opinion ... No its ideology shit i got a friend who im on the verge of cutting the fuck off because of his leanings. Mature enough give me a fuckin break

Good point,The more we disengage ourselves from the process the more we get a severely incompetent bunch of representatives with racist tendencies who could give 2 f*cks about our well being. As black people we seem to be in this never ending conflict of fighting the good fight (engaging) or retreating into a utopian world somewhere in Africa free from suffering.

Niggas still trying to convince themselves that Hilary Clinton would be out here doing just as bad as Trump is doing? Ya'll got to let that delusion go. I was never a fan of Hilary Clinton, but you grasping at straws still trying to push the "she would've been just as bad as Trump" narrative.

Also, not all opinions deserve respect. You out here giving respect to white supremacists opinions? You out here giving respect to folks like Richard Spencer or those who share his thoughts?

I just said I aint like Hilary. Both Clintons are fucking imbecials. But thats besides the point. I strongly believe you and everyone else in here is missing the big picture. How these white people were so tired of Obama they went and elected a troll as presiedent. All you can do is shake your head at them niggas. Aint nothing to get upset about. The ones who hate us always hated us, but these cowards feel the courage to speak up now because of whos in office. That says a lot more about the white race than who or what they hate. And do I believe Trump is a nazi racist? No. A fucking idiot troll? Yes. These white people are gonna regret voting him in.

How is having Republican friends making your life harder? You're an intellectual weakling if you can't engage with people who hold opposing political views without getting butt hurt. All that "rah rah acceptance, tolerance, and diversity" shit goes right out the window when you wanna send everyone with an opposing belief system to the fucking gulag.
