My wife is a 90s democrat at heart, but I'm working my way through the weeds to explain to her the principles I believe in and why they're superior values to the ones she sees around her in society.
It's working. I'm fairly certain I got her to vote Trump today. So I'm making good progress.
United we stand - divided we fall. Our nation is being ripped apart because of a corrupt and lying Main Stream Media that is intentionally gaslighting half our nation, interfering and manipulating in a presidential election. They are truly the enemy of the people.
I’m in a similar situation to OP and that’s what I did. I’m in the Bay and my GF cried when she found out I was voting for Trump. It took her the day to collect herself, and she said she wasn’t sure we had shared values. That she didn’t want to raise kids that called other little kids ‘illegals’. She was crushed. I tried to take it seriously but was mostly containing my laughter.
A month or so later, and she’s saying she likes seeing Trump dance. She still doesn’t like his immigration policies because it’s going to directly impact her and her friends, but at least understands now that Trump supporters aren’t the image they’re made out to be. I’m not even sure I’d consider myself a hardcore Trump supporter so much as someone that actually looked into things and found him to be the objectively superior candidate for America and the world. I’m sick of all this creepy 1984 bullshit on social media and the news and all else. I’m lending Trump my energy to make a spirit bomb to throw directly at the anus of everything I don’t like.
It helped that a lot of my friends that are really nice to her and good people are all doing the same.
If you mean the term "liberal" in the classic sense, then yes.
However, the terms "liberal" and "progressive" (and others) were co-opted by communists back in the 1930s. (Read F.A. Hayek's book"The Road to Serfdom" first published in 1942.)
My brother had a feminist girlfriend for years. She had a masters degree in women's studies, no joke. After they broke up, my mom said to me "She was never impolite to me and I had no problem with her personality, but because of her views the thought of her raising my grandchildren terrified me."
Oh, and after my brother broke up with her, she came out as a lesbian.
I’ve known a lot of studies major types that later ‘came out’ as lesbians/queer. I’m sure plenty are gay, but among many I’ve known, I think they were just brainwashed into thinking men were evil and that being a lesbian/queer would be morally superior. One I used to date always dated big buff guys like me, hyper masculine types. When she ‘went queer’, she got with a big butch chick that looks like me and dresses like a dude. I’m not sure how lesbian you are if you leave a lifetime of big buff men behind to get with a big buff girl that looks like a man, then ask them to strap on a big buff penis to fuck you with.
She’s currently in charge of convincing young kids that they’re trans, gender bread man teaching, and assorted nonsense. When she was engaged to a nice guy that moved across the nation for her, her main concern was raising their potential kids with gender-neutral Disney princesses. She was a nice and impressionable girl that college royally fucked over.
It all reminds me of the book by the lady that was criticized on Rogan not long ago about how a lot of awkward teenage girls are being told they’re trans and having operations and hormonal therapy they can’t reverse when really they were just awkward kids that walked into the wrong classroom.
It's that sort of shit that maintains my belief that being homosexual a choice, at least for some. It's for attention seeking. I remember back in high school (mid-2000s) when being bisexual was a trend running through the groups of less popular girls. Most of them that had relationships still had boyfriends.
Yes, it just takes 15 years or so. Best case scenario, you bend the knee and she likes you... for a while.
Then, on top of all her other complaints, she starts criticizing your lack of initiative. More than likely, her demands for stability and your lack of backbone meant that you didn't take chances at work or go through extended periods of upheaval trying to gain ground. She starts noticing that you aren't making as much money as she is, which is suddenly and unexpectedly a huge problem (unless or until she starts making less again, then it's suddenly a non-issue like before). All of the direction in the household ends up coming from her, as she demanded.
Unfortunately, this leads to pretty severe cognitive dissonance: suddenly, she resents you for not taking control at some level. The saddest part is, it still takes a long time for the men to start resenting them back, and by that point the women have often started to actually hate them.
Thank you. I've suffered from "nice guy syndrome" and I can tell you first hand, people actually like when you stand up for yourself MORE than being pleased (even if they claim otherwise).
It’s less about the particulars of who is voting for who and more about an overall belief in our nations values. You can’t build a marriage with that kind of disagreement.
Mom wants to put little Billy in a dress and give him hormone blockers because he once enjoyed Frozen....
I'm deep in Northern Virginia, my county was 75% Dem in 2016 and 80% Dem in 2018... Can unfortunately confirm that the very few conservative women I've met are never single.
I bet that’s a lot of fun for the girl! You had your entire 20’s to fuck around and sow your wild oats, but you marry a girl right out of high school who has never ever lived on her own. What are you, a Muslim or something? Better to marry a girl in her late 20’s who has also sown her wild oats and has become the person she was meant to be, not a fucking baby factory for some pervy old man who likes young pussy.
Never give up pede! My husband and I actually met in Northern Virginia (work). You'll find your diamond in the rough!
Though I do feel your pain. I thank God I met him otherwise I would still be single (spez: thankful I found who I consider to be my better half and best friend, not that I'm not single anymore kek). Sooooo many leftists in NoVa.
leftism is just default setting for most women. they can be redpilled, and the ones that are usually end up talking the most shit to leftists afterwards
Birds of a feather, bro. These men who think shit like that doesn't matter are silly. You're going to spend years with this bitch. Don't do it.
Leftist chicks are good for fucking, though. They love that MAGA dick. The soy penis doesn't make them feel any emotion, and the guys are more feminine than them.
Yep, and don't try and play mind games with yourself "well it's a good thing to have variety in a marriage". Sandwhiches are good for variety too but I don't ask them to put rat poison in it.
If you're willing to hear me out, let me tell you a personal story.
Back in 2015, I met a very beautiful and wonderful woman that I thought I would marry someday. We seriously hit it off like never before - our first date was something like 20 hours long and that was just from us talking with each other. We just fell so in sync with one another. She had some philosophies I disagreed with, but I'm a pretty "live and let live" type of guy - she can think however she wants to think and I feel I'm owed the same pleasure. Well, eventually as I began watching more and more of the political circus that was going on seemingly everywhere, I began to (quite literally to my own amazement) find myself agreeing more and more with this guy named "Donald Trump". He had a funny way of saying a lot of stuff and certainly had a knack for phrasing things poorly at some of the worst times, but when I started listening to the underlying message and paying more genuine attention to what he was really trying to express, I found myself standing more and more behind him. Before I knew it, I was donating to his campaign (something I've never done before). Then I started buying some of the campaign gear because - for the first time - there was someone in the political arena that I genuinely agreed with. But there was my girlfriend - a person I deeply loved and had only been getting more and more serious with. And I had learned from past conversations and random comments that she absolutely hated this man and, likewise, could never understand why someone would support him. So I more or less hid my support. I didn't lie to her, but I didn't wear the shirt around her or bring up topics around her that I knew would lead to that conversation. Until one day she near point blank asked me who I supported and, not wanting to lie, I told her directly that I supported Donald Trump and planned to vote for him. She was clearly shell shocked and at first thought I was joking, but when she realized I was serious she began grilling me on different issues, trying to find a "gotcha" question or moment. Trust me when I say this, I had done my homework and felt very well versed in many of the key issues facing the 2016 election. So with each question, I replied with a respectful answer and made sure the reasoning was solid. I was trying to walk a fine line of not get her anymore angry but also stand my ground and be honest with my personal philosophy. For awhile, she overlooked it and we "worked past it". Trump was eventually elected and for a few years we kept together while she occasionally did what I call "hunting for an argument" - she'd throw out random jabs or insults attempting to stir the pot or ask me a question she already knew my answer to. For example, she asked me how I felt about his handling of North Korea when he warned that he would rain fire and fury down on them if they did something. I responded that I think showing that you will fight back is a strong move and one that is necessary when engaging in tense moments like that (and a commonly utilized thing by many past presidents); she couldn't believe my answer and replied that she was "going to throw up" - I never rubbed it in her face when he met with Un for peace talks only a short while later. Anyway, this one sided harassment went on for awhile until eventually - much like you - I was given the ultimatum. I was naturally very sad about this, I had invested several years of my life with this person, but realized that if she was this controlling with differing political opinions, how would she treat our children? Would she attempt to control every aspect of my life? Where would she finally tolerate something that's different from herself? So I took it as a sign that she wasn't the one for me, that I needed someone more open minded and less controlling, and we went out separate ways.
Fast forward to today, and my life is a million times better. I have the love of a wonderful girl that openly accepts my beliefs and is genuinely interested in real discussions rather than arguments. My family loves her more than my ex, and I never have a nagging feeling in the back of my head that maybe I'm just selling myself out because I don't want to lose my girlfriend.
Don't let her control you, it won't end at who you decide to vote for. Best of luck, friend. Glad to be riding the Trump Train alongside ya. Feel free to PM me if you ever need to talk.
Don't leftist women just end up resenting you in the end if you bend to them anyway? By the way, what if she heard about a GUY who demanded his GIRL vote his way.
Interesting ... but from my pov I do not think that was the strategy that he used. Trump has done business in Asia and Korea is no different. Madman does not work when your opponent is also well versed in it. Madman is NOK's entire foreign policy.
Trump (imo) used a asian variant of carrot+stick while doing similar with China (NOK is entirely reliant on China for survival). The carrot is stroking Kim's ego ... the stick is the US forcing China to shutdown relations with N. Korea.
He threatened to nuke Kim on twitter with his big red button.
That's exactly what the madman theory is. Forget Wikipedia. The idea of Nixon was that America would have won in Vietnam if the enemies were convinced that Nixon would use the nukes.
Trump, for anyone who is not a Trump supporter and knows him well, was definitely a credible threat of nuclear warfare.
I recall the red-button exchange being a tit-for-tat where Kim threatened missiles and Trump called his bluff. The Madman game only works when you believe the guy on the other side is out of control.
Vote Trump then tell her to go fuckoff. You don't need people trying to control your life like that. It's literally what we're fighting against this election.
Good lord man! Find a real woman. One that has the same moral values as you. Lose the liberal chick, MAGA babes are better in bed anyway. Geez get a grip.
After you have voted, mill around the area and look for knots of people who obviously are Trump supporters. Latch on to them and go for a beer or something. Have a very beady eye for any women with them who look single. Look for a happiness and a light in the eye and don't go for hotness. Try to get the numbers of more than one. On sober reflection later after seeing them you will decide which you like. But at least this issue will be out of the way.
Find a Trump party to go to. There will probably be some near you. Don't drink much, and get around, get to several Trump parties. Collect numbers.
Trump women here: go find this dude at the parties. He will be less drunk, and will have a searchy look in his eye.
♫♪♪ If you wanna be happy
for the rest of your life
never make a pretty woman your wife
so from my personal point of view
get an ugly girl to marry you ♫♪♪
The integrity of the nation is more important. I want to have a safe and strong nation 10 generations from now as my ancestors from 10+ generations did coming to America. I'm in a similar boat with my gf of 4 years, we're keeping it together but she thinks of Trump supporters as stupid people and I just can't let that slide.
Thats not a sacrifice, thats a privilege, to vote for best ever POTUS. And time to wake up and find a new gf. She doesnt dictate who you vote for. Keep your balls, ditch the gf.
The unknown has never let me down!! Dumb that communist and find a good conservative woman to marry!! 💍 What makes a strong marriage is common values and compatibility. Good Luck patriot!
Honestly, not much of a sacrifice. Anyone who threatens to leave over a vote is a piece of shit and would have left you eventually down the road anyway. If petty shit means they'll dip out on you, they could never be in a long lasting stable relationship.
Don’t tell her who you’re voting for. Say it was Kanye, or any other person on the ticket. It’s your vote. She won’t be in the booth with you. Then keep her around until you find a true woman that understands economics, freedom and America.
Get you a fine MAGA woman. Sharing values between partners is extremely, extremely important.
Cannot stress this enough. This person will be raising your future children
My wife is a 90s democrat at heart, but I'm working my way through the weeds to explain to her the principles I believe in and why they're superior values to the ones she sees around her in society.
It's working. I'm fairly certain I got her to vote Trump today. So I'm making good progress.
If you're already married, then you just do the best you can. Be an example of love and fortitude and im confident she'll come around 😊
United we stand - divided we fall. Our nation is being ripped apart because of a corrupt and lying Main Stream Media that is intentionally gaslighting half our nation, interfering and manipulating in a presidential election. They are truly the enemy of the people.
Liberals can be reasoned with. Progressives cannot.
And we're almost all out of liberals!
I’m in a similar situation to OP and that’s what I did. I’m in the Bay and my GF cried when she found out I was voting for Trump. It took her the day to collect herself, and she said she wasn’t sure we had shared values. That she didn’t want to raise kids that called other little kids ‘illegals’. She was crushed.

On illegal immigration ... you really ought to introduce her to this:

Cool, thanks!
Yes that would be disappointing. I’d feel like a failure of a parent if my kids didn’t report them to ICE first.
If you mean the term "liberal" in the classic sense, then yes.
However, the terms "liberal" and "progressive" (and others) were co-opted by communists back in the 1930s. (Read F.A. Hayek's book"The Road to Serfdom" first published in 1942.)
It's easy to pretend values aren't important when the country at large still holds those values FOR YOU. Once the bottom falls out, she'll miss them.
Thank you.
It may help to tell her Trump was a member of the democratic party until 1987 :)
Trump is closer to a 90's Democrat than the 2020 Democrats.
90s democrats were the Clintons.
My brother had a feminist girlfriend for years. She had a masters degree in women's studies, no joke. After they broke up, my mom said to me "She was never impolite to me and I had no problem with her personality, but because of her views the thought of her raising my grandchildren terrified me."
Oh, and after my brother broke up with her, she came out as a lesbian.
I guess the ol' "stick the guy with a huge child support order for life" screwaroo didn't work this time.
I’ve known a lot of studies major types that later ‘came out’ as lesbians/queer. I’m sure plenty are gay, but among many I’ve known, I think they were just brainwashed into thinking men were evil and that being a lesbian/queer would be morally superior.

I've always said, people that don't believe in God will believe in anything. If you don't follow the Lord, something is going to pull you down.
It's that sort of shit that maintains my belief that being homosexual a choice, at least for some. It's for attention seeking. I remember back in high school (mid-2000s) when being bisexual was a trend running through the groups of less popular girls. Most of them that had relationships still had boyfriends.
“womens studies” was the clue, fren.
if i was a “male studies” student in college, id probly being going to all the straka events, and scoping out more than his arguments. haha.
Anyone that eats pussy can't be all that bad.
Right! I'm a lesbian, trapped in a man's body!
I remember when that guy went on Rush! It was hilarious.
+1. Schools and peers are enough to contend with. You don’t need a mate undermining you, too.
Correct answer. "Losing" a woman who leaves you over voting for Trump is actually a victory.
This. This cannot be understated.
When I saw how leftist a GF was, the discussions really started. Don't mind stating I dodged a few bullets before I found the one.
Do leftists GFs resent men who bend to them?
Yes, it just takes 15 years or so. Best case scenario, you bend the knee and she likes you... for a while.
Then, on top of all her other complaints, she starts criticizing your lack of initiative. More than likely, her demands for stability and your lack of backbone meant that you didn't take chances at work or go through extended periods of upheaval trying to gain ground.

I'm deep in Northern Virginia, my county was 75% Dem in 2016 and 80% Dem in 2018... Can unfortunately confirm that the very few conservative women I've met are never single.
Well, my dad always told me, date democrats, but marry a republican!
Don't have time to date democrats when the republicans get married early
I bet that’s a lot of fun for the girl! You had your entire 20’s to fuck around and sow your wild oats, but you marry a girl right out of high school who has never ever lived on her own.

Actually you are talking about someone who has lived under communism and doesnt want it happening here. We must reform our K-12 system.
leftism is just default setting for most women. they can be redpilled, and the ones that are usually end up talking the most shit to leftists afterwards
This is why people are better poised to find a wife in church than on Tinder.
Tell her that if she votes for that pedophile Biden you’re through.
THIS x200,000
Best advice here! #walkaway
Well played.
Lol - "demanded". Can't even imagine letting my wife even finish those words.
I would literally explode into laughter.
Amen
Don’t leave us hanging! Was there proof?
>Gf: I DEMAND you vote for Biden
>Me: You are in no position to make demands, I take what I want (bite her on the back of the neck)
>Gf: swoons
That's how you solve that problem
when people give me ultimatum I do the opposite as what they want
And how would the women know, anyway. You are alone in the booth.
Yes, this is unfortunate.
That's besides the point. If you tell your wife you're voting biden because of her demands, you're a cuck
Agree.
And it's sad.
There will be a lot of parties to meet someone else, soon.
YOU SHOULD MOCK THEM EVERYTIME YOU SEE THEM
Not only is that absurd, but voting is private. How would they even know?
They don’t.... undercover Pepe!!!!
100% kek.
Married a lefitist, I didn't know how deep I was until 2016. Save yourself now!
It may not seem like it but you'll be glad down the road. Big disagreements in money, religion, and/or politics = bad.
This is the way
Birds of a feather, bro. These men who think shit like that doesn't matter are silly. You're going to spend years with this bitch. Don't do it.
Leftist chicks are good for fucking, though. They love that MAGA dick. The soy penis doesn't make them feel any emotion, and the guys are more feminine than them.

Funny that. I was just eating a sandwich. I always eat the ingredients separately so I can inspect them. I like to see what goes in my mouth.
It'll be worth it. You need a chick you can MAGA with.

BULLET DODGED, liberal women will ALWAYS betray you
Sorry to hear that man. Hope it all works out.
walk away, find someone else.
If you're willing to hear me out, let me tell you a personal story.
Back in 2015, I met a very beautiful and wonderful woman that I thought I would marry someday. We seriously hit it off like never before - our first date was something like 20 hours long and that was just from us talking with each other. We just fell so in sync with one another. She had some philosophies I disagreed with, but I'm a pretty "live and let live" type of guy - she can think however she wants to think and I feel I'm owed the same pleasure. Well, eventually as I began watching more and more of the political circus that was going on seemingly everywhere, I began to (quite literally to my own amazement) find myself agreeing more and more with this guy named "Donald Trump". He had a funny way of saying a lot of stuff and certainly had a knack for phrasing things poorly at some of the worst times, but when I started listening to the underlying message and paying more genuine attention to what he was really trying to express, I found myself standing more and more behind him. Before I knew it, I was donating to his campaign (something I've never done before). Then I started buying some of the campaign gear because - for the first time - there was someone in the political arena that I genuinely agreed with. But there was my girlfriend - a person I deeply loved and had only been getting more and more serious with. And I had learned from past conversations and random comments that she absolutely hated this man and, likewise, could never understand why someone would support him. So I more or less hid my support. I didn't lie to her, but I didn't wear the shirt around her or bring up topics around her that I knew would lead to that conversation.

Don't leftist women just end up resenting you in the end if you bend to them anyway? By the way, what if she heard about a GUY who demanded his GIRL vote his way.
Women in general tend to resent and lose attraction to men who are too willing to bend to them.
It's like they don't know what they want and are testing you. Bend too much and they lose interest (but don't know why).
Good story, I enjoyed reading it.
And your ex is dumb and ignorant.
There's even a fucking Wikipedia page on the strategy that Trump adopted with Kim. It's a well known political strategy.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Madman_theory
Interesting ... but from my pov I do not think that was the strategy that he used. Trump has done business in Asia and Korea is no different. Madman does not work when your opponent is also well versed in it. Madman is NOK's entire foreign policy.

No, definitely madman.
He threatened to nuke Kim on twitter with his big red button.

I recall the red-button exchange being a tit-for-tat where Kim threatened missiles and Trump called his bluff. The Madman game only works when you believe the guy on the other side is out of control.
You cannot call a madman's bluff.
Plus his response was in the sort of verbiage used by them.
You're future wife should support you in all endeavors just like you should support her. Glad you found out she's not wife material for you.
TELL HER SHE'S VOTING FOR A RAPIST
You will find someone better. Really you will. Someone with you good sense and patriotism
Well done!
Sorry too hear this, but you’re dodging a bullet!
Vote Trump then tell her to go fuckoff. You don't need people trying to control your life like that. It's literally what we're fighting against this election.
You will not regret it. But if you knuckled under to her, you would eventually regret it very much. Stay strong, fren
Incorrect ...POTUS showed you that she wasn’t “the one”. You’re welcome
GIRLFRIEND; The greatest oxymoron since "Military Intelligence".
or "Postal Service"
She ain't a keeper.
Good lord man! Find a real woman. One that has the same moral values as you. Lose the liberal chick, MAGA babes are better in bed anyway. Geez get a grip.
After you have voted, mill around the area and look for knots of people who obviously are Trump supporters. Latch on to them and go for a beer or something. Have a very beady eye for any women with them who look single. Look for a happiness and a light in the eye and don't go for hotness. Try to get the numbers of more than one. On sober reflection later after seeing them you will decide which you like. But at least this issue will be out of the way.
Find a Trump party to go to. There will probably be some near you. Don't drink much, and get around, get to several Trump parties. Collect numbers.
Trump women here: go find this dude at the parties. He will be less drunk, and will have a searchy look in his eye.
Don't go for hotness is great advice.
♫♪♪ If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life never make a pretty woman your wife so from my personal point of view get an ugly girl to marry you ♫♪♪
Ben Franklin said in one of his letters on marriage advice to a young man: “Older women are so grateful” 😁
At least it’s just a girlfriend. Alimony and losing the house to a lefty is a son of a bitch.
Step 1: Dump liberal gf Step 2: Go to Trump rally Step 3: Meet MAGA woman Step 4: Vote Trump and MAGA together
Girl bye!
You don't need someone who supports a traitor and someone who wouldn't even protect his granddaughter from his crackhead Pedo son.
The integrity of the nation is more important. I want to have a safe and strong nation 10 generations from now as my ancestors from 10+ generations did coming to America. I'm in a similar boat with my gf of 4 years, we're keeping it together but she thinks of Trump supporters as stupid people and I just can't let that slide.
Thats not a sacrifice, thats a privilege, to vote for best ever POTUS. And time to wake up and find a new gf. She doesnt dictate who you vote for. Keep your balls, ditch the gf.
I lost my girl over my support for Trump last week. It's okay, 'pede, we'll find another.
The unknown has never let me down!! Dumb that communist and find a good conservative woman to marry!! 💍 What makes a strong marriage is common values and compatibility. Good Luck patriot!
Honestly, not much of a sacrifice. Anyone who threatens to leave over a vote is a piece of shit and would have left you eventually down the road anyway. If petty shit means they'll dip out on you, they could never be in a long lasting stable relationship.
Don’t tell her who you’re voting for. Say it was Kanye, or any other person on the ticket. It’s your vote. She won’t be in the booth with you. Then keep her around until you find a true woman that understands economics, freedom and America.
No dump her and find that girl when you find her. Keeping someone around until you find someone better is disrespectful to all.
She’s doing you a favor.
Imagine trying to raise children with someone who is philosophically opposed to you.
