Have you lost any friends or family over their support of Trump/GOP?
I had a friend who loves Scott Walker and Bill O'Reilly. I tolerated it even though his wife, get this, is a teacher! When they claimed people and the media weren't giving Trump a chance last Spring, I had enough and dropped all contact with them.
While it sucks to lose a friend, I just decided I did not need people like that in my life.

7. Well, I didn't divorce my husband yet
It's still a possibility. I'm a very patient person and am waiting this out to see if what comes out of Mueller's investigation has any effect on husband's brain. We don't talk about it much anymore, which is very difficult. As far as the other idiots that were in my life, yes, I've lost them. My adult kids all feel the same way I do, and none of us interact with their aunts, uncles and cousins who weren't against trump. I rarely talk to my brother, and that's probably the way it'll stay from now on.
Even if the trump/gop supporters come around in their thinking, I don't think I'll ever be able to get past the fact that they voted that way. Too much damage has already been done, and some of it is irreparable.
(Just want to add, my husband is 66 and is showing signs of cognitive decline and possible dementia. I can't see myself walking out on that, as difficult as it is.)
You are one sad individual.

I completely cut a couple of my longtime friends out of my life because of the last presidential election. During the both 2008 and 2012 elections we had light-hearted Facebook back-and-forth discussions and friendly arguments, but last year the racism became obvious and the stupidity became too much to tolerate any longer.
Loser. Cut longtime friends over politics ? I have a dozen friends that are lefties. We do not talk about politics. Simple as that. :loser:

I know some lefties, I don't socialize with them.

And the ones that want to talk politics with me, cut ME off!
No loss...

Any normal person would not want to associate with people who are so filled with hate and intolerance for those with a different view. So all you dummies are just doing normal folks a favor by ignoring them. :thatsright:

Have you cut off any friends or family over their support of Trump/GOP? And if not, why not?

Um, no. I have readily acknowledged to close friends that I voted for President Trump, even to those who lean liberal. Hasn't affected our relationships in the least bit.
Life isn't all about politics, DUmpmonkeys.

Actually all my friends voted for him too. :-)
That's why he is president!

So for your party you go to your grave alone, unloved, unliked, estranged from family, no friends and see nothing wrong with it.
Then you freaking idiots wonder why you are so miserable. :mental:

>am waiting this out to see if what comes out of Mueller's investigation
The dummies are so stupid they may have confused Muller with Euler ...
http://www.storyofmathematics.com/18th_euler.html
The problem was to find a route through the city that would cross each bridge once and only once...
In fact, Euler proved that the problem has no solution, but in doing so he made the important conceptual leap of pointing out that the choice of route within each landmass is irrelevant and the only important feature is the sequence of bridges crossed. This allowed him to reformulate the problem in abstract terms, replacing each land mass with an abstract node and each bridge with an abstract connection. This resulted in a mathematical structure called a “graph”, a pictorial representation made up of points (vertices) connected by non-intersecting curves (arcs), which may be distorted in any way without changing the graph itself. In this way, Euler was able to deduce that, because the four land masses in the original problem are touched by an odd number of bridges, the existence of a walk traversing each bridge once only inevitably leads to a contradiction. If Königsberg had had one fewer bridges, on the other hand, with an even number of bridges leading to each piece of land, then a solution would have been possible.

Let's see shall we. The problem is you. Not anyone else. It is you!
