16. My brother is a Trumper.

I love my brother. He is a great guy and would give you the shirt off his back. But he got indoctrinated into the Trump cult. (As an aside, my dad was a Trumper too but he died in 2019.) Anyway my brother and I are complete opposites when it comes to politics. We have had some very heated arguments about Trump and Biden. But he lives in a completely different reality. To him, Trump was the greatest President ever! A moral man, who loved America, was a business genius and "made America great again." As for Biden, my brother is convinced that the President is a "hard-core Marxist" who is demented, hates America and wants to turn us over to Chinese rule. No amount of facts can change his mind. When I point out all the dumb, hateful, crooked stuff Trump has done my brother claims it a 'lie" put out by the "Marxist media". I can't begin to tell you frustrating it is to argue with someone who denies reality! It's like we live in two different universes. I think he has gone too far down the Trump rabbit hole to be saved. To save our relationship we agreed to stop talking about politics otherwise we would have ended up totally estranged. I wish Trump had never been born. He has caused so much hate and division in this country. Trump is a horrible human being and a total POS. But my brother eagerly looks forward to Trump running in 2024 and plans to vote for him again. I hope Trump has a massive stroke before then because I fear what another Trump Presidency would be like! Can you "fascist dictatorship" boys and girls?
