Just got into a bit of a nasty argument a couple of minutes ago. I asked my mother let's pray together and pray for Trump and the country for tomorrow. (She is pro-Trump)

Instead of acknowledging what I said, immediately got a snotty tone of voice completely out of nowhere "We need to pray your grandmother didn't get the virus!" Just abruptly said this. I myself haven't spoken anything against this, I figured we could pray for our family as well as we often do. But it was just nasty to immediately cut off what I said.

(By the way: she thinks my grandmother will get the virus because my grandmother went to a Christmas thing 2 and a half weeks ago. Someone there she exchanged a gift from was apparently diagnosed with the virus today.)

Like I said, no problem with praying for my grandmother, but completely uncalled for to shoot down what I said about Trump like that. This has grand importance and a lot more people will be killed depending on the outcome.

But she was too busy accusing me of "not wanting to pray for her mother" - ridiculous nonsense that I said nothing of the sort. I made it clear I didn't like how she shot down the importance of the presidency tomorrow, but that I had no problem with praying for my grandmother.

She wouldn't apologize or acknowledge that it was important, just making a snark about how "I have different priorities than you."

Now blaming me for getting her upset keeping her from going to sleep after she pointlessly started this stupid argument, and even though she was already upset about that stupid virus crap.

Anyway, I just wanted to get that off my chest. What do you Pedes think I should do here?

Her anger is not related to your prioritization of "Praying for Trump"! She's upset about you not acknowledging the seriousness of the Kungflu!

Your mother needs more info on this virus. Sit with her and spend enough time answering every question she has on it. Also give enough time for her to reflect back on the points you put forward. Have a dialog and not an argument about who's right and who's wrong! Because you've already won the argument on the fake virus and the fake pandemic! Truth is on our side.

Give her enough info and time, she'll understand. But, please do not give up on her.
