Narrator: Neither of them voted.
Our friends husband teld her he voted Trump.
It was one big nail in the coffin of that marriage.
Anyone who voted for trump deserves to get divorced. The lack of morals, the lack of basic human empathy is present in all trump voters.
Even in the best case scenario of a well-intentioned-but-ignorant person that didn't think critically about what a Trump vote meant, I still wouldn't want to be married to a fool.
You've gotta use your brain if you want to ride this train.
You can't use that excuse for the last election though.
Nope. This time, everyone knew what voting for Trump meant, so they're either irredeemably evil or irredeemably stupid (or both).
How would I not know the political views of my husband?
there are entire departments at companies trying to turn people into insane conservatives
It's possible that his views were conflicted.
I have family whose politics I understand pretty well, and I don't know who they voted for. What I do know is that they were torn between: "Trump's blatant antisemitism is a danger to us here in America" and "Trump is good for Israel".
Ouch, two reasons not to vote for Trump, IMO...
Genocide the natives and take their land? It does sound very American to be fair.
... can't argue with that
A friend of mine went on a date Sunday night. For some reason they started talking politics. This bitch ass cry baby mommas boy walks OUT on the date, WITHOUT paying for his drinks/food. Luckily my friend only had to pay for her stuff. I'll give you one guess what his political leanings were. These maga morons got no balls
Your friend dodged a bullet.
For your own safety you should really ask about their political ideology before meeting them. Make sure to not let them fool you either, never tell them yours first.
Man you'd think. Some ppl just use politics to hide shitty behavior. Polis don't mean shit. See how friendly and helpful they are to strangers. Ppl thank can't offer anything.
It's not the end-all-be-all for filtering out assholes, but nobody was suggesting it was. Most of the remaining filters are done before or during dates
Morons And Genuine Assholes
I'm glad I live in a place where this would give you almost no info.
Because there's more than two options.
I think a lot of us in the US have had this experience some time in the last 10 years. A work colleague or relative you don't know that well. People tend to avoid talking about politics directly, and often the euphemism (as seen here)bis ambiguous enough that it's a coin toss for what it actually means.
Was it me? I bet it was me. That's okay, though. I probably wouldn't vote for me either.
