I agree! He's doing another tomorrow and a third next week. The one tomorrow is with his grandmother regarding her escape from Cuba and how Bernie is SO wrong. Next week was a tease, don't know what that one's about except that it's a completely different topic.
You’re not the only one. Weird Al has a song “Everything you know is Wrong” and I feel like that right now. Especially when Ted Cruz just said the Republicans are now the party for the American Worker.
My mind has been blown a little, not going to lie. But this place (and TD before it) remind me I’m not alone, and neither are you.
All that matters to the never trumpers is how it looks. Honestly, this feels like we never left high school. How things and people look is more important than reality and truth. They'd rather have a schmuck like Obama who reads well off a teleprompter than someone a bit rough around the edges, like Trump.
That's what I'm thinking. I was in the hold-out camp until I saw the news about what they're doing to the TD mods. That changes the entire game and TD is lost. Rather than close it down, they'll alter it, change it, first kinda Fox News, then the slow slide to the left.
And yet, no matter what I do I can't seem to even get the first warning. It's the weirdest thing. My IP isn't out of the US though, maybe it makes a difference? Still a voter, still have family/friends living in the US, dunno what delusions they have.
I'm trying to figure out how to drop this one on my Bernie supporting sister. As a victim herself she'd be appalled, but because she's a victim and my sister I'd rather not push her into a bad headspace. Probably have to pass and makes me sad.
I sincerely sympathize with you. Life is learning, some lessons are painful. Since you know you were confrontational, have you been working on yourself to be less so? If you have, it might be time to branch out and start looking for new friends that you might have things in common with. It's not easy. If you have hobbies, you might be able to find groups that meet regularly with your hobby in common. That can be used to branch out into more friendly interactions, which could potentially lead to friendship developing.
If you don't have hobbies, you'll want to find one, even if it's just reading self-help books.
