It's 24/7 coverage of Trump's trial to motion the motion the motion to excuse the motion to file the motion to appeal the motion. And liberals are all like "oooh get his ass!" when in any functioning country like China Trump would have been executed by now.

Yeah we've recommended (purchased for her) so many books over the years but it's clear she's never going to crack one open. We have spoon fed her basic concepts that she will seemingly understand and completely agree with in the moment, but 10 minutes of MSNBC later it's like the conversation never happened because they're totally going to nail Trump this time, and we've really got to do something about all the shoplifting. We mostly just try to avoid politics with her, but it's fucking impossible because cable news is like her entire conception of the world now.

Has she heard about that hot new True Crime podcast called Blowback? ๐Ÿ˜‰

look I appreciate what you're trying to do here, but she's not going to budge on her political views lol. We'd really just like to get her away from politics entirely for the sake of her relationship with my partner (and everyone else around her), but since that doesn't look possible either we just try to not engage with it because even our dissent is taken as a green light to exclusively talk about cable news politics.
