My old man is middle of the road but he voted for Hillary in the last pres election because in his opinion "Trump has been a crook since the early 80s, or at least that's when I heard of him, and he was a crook then, and a slimeball now". He also hates the republican party as it exists now, he doesn't identify with any of their policies and thinks they're a bunch of crazies at this point.

My younger brother voted for Trump in '16, because "It's not like my vote counts", he also drops the hard R during "heated gamer moments" playing PUBG. I slapped the nice pair of turtle beaches he was wearing off his head when he did it and those fuckers broke. He's also a straight rear end in a top hat to my dad (who is not in good shape, medically, 50+ years of ignoring your body leads to lots of medical problems later in life), to the point of starting physical altercations with him.

I have no clue on my sister, she doesn't give much of a poo poo about politics, but I'd hope she gets more involved now that she's seen what not being involved gets you.

My family is a family of contrasts.

Yep, exactly same for me. Like, as a kid we had some mexican families in our church that had family that came over illegal to work and wanted to naturalize. We helped put them up in houses and help them get jobs while church members babysat their kids so they could start getting legal papers and poo poo.

Today I don't think anyone in the church I grew up in would do this. They were doing this in like 1995 for christs sake.

I'm not joking that most of what I know of 70s/80s politics came from Bloom County and Doonesbury. I had a copy of a Bloom County strip about Trump hanging on my wall at my (then) work while the Primary was going on.

You obviously haven't seen the curves she was rocking on her tour this year.

Between the publicity from her political statement, her Reputation Stadium Tour, and winning her court case against the dude that groped her, she's having a hell of a year.

I'm lucky that my dad is a lifelong union worker. He was a solid Clinton era centrist and in the past few years has become more radically liberal (as far as the Democrats are concerned).

I'm on the fence on this because they shouldn't have to have a celebrity tell them to go register, but at the same time, who is going to tell them? I was never taught how important it was in high school. Nor did my parents encourage it.
