Luckily none of my significant others or immediate family members voted for Orange Carbuncle. On the other hand, first and second cousins, and a couple of aunts and uncles love the idiot and were proud and vocal about their support. My wife and I have declined two invitations to holiday parties where this group will be in attendance because we all love talking politics and I fear I will become quite aggressive and confrontational (not my usual laid back demeanor) in regards to their votes and opinions. As usual I would come with facts and they would come with Fox News talking points. My nerves are still too raw. Contempt? Hell yes!
