My ordinarily intelligent cousin didn’t vote for Trump on account of his rude tactics and mean tweets.

It was a tough thing for me to get over. I finally

got over it. Then she got all the jabs and when I got covid said it was bc I didn’t get the jabs. Then she got covid. Her entire jabbed fam—along with her, and of COURSE, she said the proverbial, “But it would’ve been SO MUCH WORSE …” so now I’m back to being wholly irritated with her.

When these types watch the legacy media daily like ABC world news tonight; they get so easily brainwashed to hate Trump. I actually watch that program every single evening just as research to understand what they are brainwashing currently. I record and watch later but I never miss it, sorry to give them ratings but it helps me understand the world since I avoid all other left owned media at all costs. Also I don’t mind David Muir, he’s very pleasant to listen to so I can tolerate it in the name of greater awareness in what my dad thinks and is going to say. My dad buys it all; hook line and sinker. He parrots it too a T.

You are a very brave and loving person, sacrificing your time and sanity like this! ☺️😂 I could not do it.

Yes..sanity! Magnolia must be a very even tempered, objective human being to be able to do that.

One Relative, knowing I'm conservative, asked me how I could support Trump based on how evil he was. I asked them to describe his evil acts. They couldn't, and this person has a master's degree. I said 'no worries that you can't bring it to mind, go research and get back to me. I'm really curious what evil he is fomenting. I'm open to hearing about it.' I never heard back.

Before ending the conversation, I said 'I don't love Trump's fits of hubris, but I'll bet he wouldn't like my pathetic self-righteousness.' In the end , we do have to put a human being in office.

My dad, much the same. He passed away before Obama could fundamentally transform what Dad's Greatest Generation built, but he was already in the habit of saying to me, "This country's gone, son." Ominous words. Maybe we've seen the worst now. Hopes, prayers, and action!

My dad is like this too. But day I was visiting him in CA and it was on MSNBC and he was like oh great, I guess you guys are going to tell us what to think now.

LOL. My dad is staunch conservative so no fighting here. But I’m shocked he still watches MSM locals…

I did that with my mom but it was FOX that she watched. It didn't take long before I started to consider there had to be another side the the mainstream narrative. I wish she had lived to experience my conversion.

Recording it is a good idea, in case you need to go throw up or punch a wall between stories 😂

As for David Muir, during Trump’s first term we started calling him David Manure.

It is true that the Cretin Rat element have taken our decency and weaponized it against us. Truly ... we have to get over that and fight steel against steel ... and win. And there is no substitute for winning.

Mine was a brother who completely lost his mind with TDS. He was estranged from family and friends, got fired, and died three months ago, a broken shell of a human being. One of the saddest things I've ever seen. He was 67.

TDS is amazingly destructive. Glenn Beck is the only person I’ve seen recover, but he apparently had a spiritual awakening following a complete nervous breakdown.

Yesterday, someone recommended the movie about demonic possession that Beck was involved with. It’s called ‘Nefarious’, is extremely well done and life changing. We wonder how some can possibly do the evil things they do. This answers.

I’m glad I didn’t know Beck was involved, since I can’t lose the mental picture of his face encrusted in Cheetos back in 2016 and might have avoided it.

He seems to have recovered, which is pretty miraculous.

Anyway, Prime has ‘Nefarious’ now and it is an astounding vehicle for Truth.

Nefarious WAS riveting. Chilling.

Oscar worthy, if Oscar’s really meant anything.

Nefarious was riveting. I didn't know Beck was involved. I dropped him back in the Tea Party days, when he and Hannity hijacked a broad, peaceful coalition and ran it aground. The Cheetos stunt was just confirmation. Maybe Glenn Beck has turned himself around; I hope so. But he's still a long way from earning my trust.

I’ve read that he has had a personal

hand in rescuing some

sex traded kids but I can’t tell you where I read that.

Southern gal, recently transplanted to that cesspool, Washington?

I blame the woke SWAMP THANGS for putting her in her trance.
