In reply to the discussion: So I got to a 4th of July party and there were asshole Trump lovers there [View all]hughee99
(16,113 posts)43. So this was a gathering of 5 people, one of which did not want
The parade on TV. And the host did want the parade on tv. You were supposed to be watching the baseball games (the LA teams) but instead, they put on 4 hours of Trump, parades and fireworks. When the host refused to put on the game (as you requested) and left the Trump spectacle on tv, you said you were going to leave, and you two are no longer friends. The friend who brought you didnt tell you that you were right, and wouldnt bring you home, so you are no longer friends with them either.
You had agreed to watch the games, but instead of watching them, you were watching Trumps DC shitshow. Is that accurate?
