In reply to the discussion: So I got to a 4th of July party and there were asshole Trump lovers there [View all]TruckFump
(5,812 posts)It was the birthday of mutual friend.
I totally agree with you EXCEPT for the FACT that I agreed to help with the party with the Trump lover IF and ONLY IF there was NOTHING political going on. I made a complete and total reference to the Trump Extravaganza for the 4th. Thus I agreed to bring food, cake, wine, etc.
I was literally stranded there while this Trump Asshole thought it was funny as hell to have a 54" TV directly in front of my face with high definition so well done that I could literally see each and every hair on the Trump-do.
If you could have stayed under those circumstances, then you had a stronger stomach than I do. I was NOT the only person who left. Even another Trump supporter was turned off by what was being done. The asshole whose house it was at just kept saying, "...but it's only a parade."
I came to watch the baseball game and to have a good time REGARDLESS of the politics. The asshat then kept not only the wine and cake I brought, but kept the present for the birthday boy.
I wrote the original post when I got home and was angrier than all shit get out. If I was unclear, excuse me.
My social rules are different: Unless I am sure of the group, I NEVER bring up politics. PERIOD. If I know someone who is at my home for social reasons has an aversion to anything specific, I would NEVER bring it up. I sure as hell would not hold someone at my home captive in front of an Obama speech if I had agreed before hand that there would be NO politics and I had specific knowledge that the person hated Obama. The asshat Trumpster in question had actual knowledge that I hated Trump with a passion.
Maybe it's because I have some social graces whereas those who support Trump do not that I would have acted differently in the place of the Trump ass kisser.
And...lastly...I did not have a shit fit. I asked that the event be turn off or to another channel...specifically the baseball game I had come to watch by agreement. When I got a ration of shit, i left.
