My parents, as well as almost all of my extended family, are diehard Republicans (as well as diehard "Christians") and have always voted red, no matter who's running. I do my best not to talk to them about anything politics or religion-related, though it's sometimes unavoidable.

Fun fact, my father told me the other day that my grandfather is rolling in his grave because I didn't vote for Trump, so I kindly reminded him that said grandfather regularly used the hard N word to describe any black person. He also seems to think that gas and grocery prices are going to go down because of Trump, so... fuck 'em. I'm only worried about my brother at this point, as he's been trying to get on disability and this is almost certainly going to fuck him over.

Im sorry you and your brother have to go through your family being like that.

I also forgot to mention that my brother was an idiot and voted for Trump. He has two daughters and lives in a red state. Dumbass thought the republicans were only banning abortions on the third trimester. He married a conservative woman and all of his friends grew up in conservative households.

Im checking in with my estranged half brother to see how hes doing. I havent spoken to him in years because of my parents. Really hope hes doing well. Hes married to a Mexican immigrant and has a son with her.
