This is based on a survey. I saw this and I asked myself WHY? Why would politics mean so much to anyone they would choose to do away with spending time with relatives. My wife has liberal family members. We get along fine. We don't talk politics. We talk about everything else but politics. I agree to put away my MAGA items and they say nothing about MAGA or President Donald Trump. It works. I have liberal friends I handle the same way. We don't talk about politics because there is more going on between us than politics.
Does anyone else face this issue? Thanksgiving is coming up soon. So far, the family is all okay with having a politics free day.

What would have happened if BERNIE had accomplished hijacking Dems instead of Trump hijacking GOP?And what if Bernie was in office now instead of Trump? He came close to pushing Hillary out - either because of white male misogyny that seems to still be an issue; or because they actually wanted free...
