It finally happened. Wife is an Alabama girl, though we left the state after we married in 1966 and have never looked back. She stays in touch with her family.
We know the family all are Trumpistas but we have managed to avoid a rift. Until today.
Today she was having one of her weekly phone conversations with her sister when wife asked if sister had watched the US women’s soccer team victory. The conversation quickly went from friendly talk about soccer to:
— the lesbian with purple hair who hates America, to,
— Colin Kapernick who should be in jail and deported, to,
— sister declaring that she’s a Trump supporter for everything he’s done to bring the US “back to God,” and “everything negative about Trump is fake news just like all those attacks on that good Christian man, Roy Moore . . ” . . .
Sister then ended the conversation “I guess we had better not talk anymore, it’s no use talking to you socialists.” Click.
