Please let JD Vance know that I am thankful.

I stole a Snickers once when I was a kid and as an adult I once cheated on my taxes. Damned good thing I'm not running for president. Whew! I have some friends that I have had for 15 years. I guess they'll be telling me to hit the road now that they've read this post.

at least you are an honest looney,,,,,,now you have to admit to allowing millions of poor people into your country with the intent of overwhelming the Immigration courts so that it would take 100 years to hear all of the Asylum cases ( in the USA, there are 2 million "Getaways" that never even spoke to immigration and most of the "Asylum Seekers" never got a Notice to Appear aka NTA, so they dont really expect to ever see a judge). You did this so that your mega-rich corporations could have 5$ hour workers. My question is, how much money are the corporations paying you to support this destruction of the middle class income structure ?

BTW,,,,THE LEFT HATES ELON BECAUSE HE IS WORKING TO CUT A LOT OF GOVERNMENT WORKERS ( 99% ARE LEFTISTS ). THE LEFT COULD CARE LESS ABOUT PRIVATE SECTOR JOBS AS MOST OF THEM ARE WHITE / ASIAN PEOPLE. TEAM TRUMP knows what they are doing

I have 2 friends (married couple) that I've been friends with for 15 years. Lets call them S and J.

I met them through S's sister who was a friend at the time. And we've done tons of stuff together over the years and been invited to some of their family get togethers. They claimed I was indeed, a part of their family.

They even helped me out a great deal when I had to go into the hospital a few years ago.

Thing is, they are Democrats. And until now, I didn't know how die hard Dem they are.

S called me tonight to tell me we can no longer be friends because of "whats in the White House".

I had a friend since 1999 do this to me in 2015, as she also turned out to be a die hard, brainwashed Dem.

With me being in my 60's now, and all of my family gone, as well as my other friends who've passed away in the last few years.......I only have 2 friends left now. One tries not to be political at all, and the other is a die hard Rep.

So, I'm kind of dizzy right now from our conversation.
Bascially S told me there's no way in hell she can get over me being a part of the "Nazi Party", although she could not explain to me what "Nazi" stuff she is talking about. She just states "read your history books again".

She said if I ever need help, she will be glad to help out, but we just cannot be friends anymore because she hates having to "hold it in" when around me. And I've NEVER told her to NOT "hold it in" when around me. In fact I've told her on multiple occassions to use me as a sounding board, or yell and scream if needed, she's not going to ever hurt my feelings. I understand her position and why she votes Dem, because she's explained it to me. And I've never cared, because I like them so much as people.

But she said she "can't get over it". So, I'm now down to 2 friends left. One lives in Canada and the other one has severe knee problems and can't get out much anymore.

God damn I despise this shit and getting old!!

I miss them already.

Friends are overrated.

 

[Dr.Destructo]

Friends are overrated.

Unfortunately loyalty, respect, and sympathy are all things of the past.

Someone who would kick me to the curb for my political beliefs is not my friend.

Unfortunately, it's different with families. I have the great good fortune to have a family that is politically sensible, and to live in a town and attend a church that is likewise. I have lost a few "friends" over politics, but they were online friends, which means little.

Funny!

I have plenty of friends that voted for DJT. They're all aware that I don't like MAGA, so they don't praise the orange God around me. Politics and religion are topics best left alone in any friendship.

That's what most people say. Maybe they (you) are right but I see it differently, albeit possibly naïvely. In my dreams a good friend is someone you can express your admiration of political figures or even God and not be criticized for it. I want to be able to express my feelings to a friend but I have no need to express my feelings of disagreement about his/hers. If you like skydiving I don't need to jump out of an aeroplane to appreciate your joy. But obviously ...... that's just me.

Who do you think you are speaking to?

 

[cnm]

And that is the absolute truth. The Brown Shirt Nazi goons were all a bunch of leftist radicals serving their leftist Nazi masters. It's spiritual. Godless people are blind and easy to deceive.

Catholics, weren't they?

Sounds like you are the problem. Not them.

and the first dem on the thread reinforces the Nazi intolerance .. todays Dems are the types of people informing on their neighbors in the late 1930s Germany ..

I slowly let go of all the "die hard liberals" in my life. A few of them were my childhood friends and some of them I had relationships with for at least 20 years. I wasn't ruthless or nasty about it though, I just kind of gradually let go of them. Nothing harsh or abrupt. In some cases it wasn't even directly about their views it was about other things...like schizoaffective disorder. However, that friend was ALSO a bleeding heart liberal and had been before and after the onset of his mental illness. If not for his clinical mental illness, I probably could have got along with him and still agreed to disagree in some cases. The first friend that I truly let go because of his excessive liberalism moved to Florida shortly after high school and then a few years later moved to San Francisco. I remember when he used to call me and wake me up when he was all coked up at 5:00 a.m. in the morning our time, ranting and making meaningless small talk.

In all honesty even though I am moderately conservative in My views I also don't particularly care for the far right conservatives who are constantly spouting about Jesus eithwr. I am "socially conservative". Kind of old fashioned. I believe in marriage, freedom of religion, support 2A all the way, frown somewhat on abortion but am not full anti either, abhor the far left Democrats like Schiff, Schumer, Pelosi, Warren, Newsome, AOC, etc. I'm not the kind of guy who puts Trump signs on my car and my lawn, not do I wear a MAGA hat....but I did vote for Trump all three times. Until 2008 I was registered as an independent and the only presidential candidates I had ever voted for was Ross Perot and Bill Clinton. I was actually raised in an "old guard" Democrat household, and that sentiment stayed with me until Obama flipped my entire outlook and I realized how much more I was aligned with modern conservatives than modern liberals. I re-registered as a Republican in 2012 so I could vote in the primaries, and finally had ZERO allegiance to the Democratic party at that point. In all honesty the people I am most drawn to hanging out with now are slightly conservative leaning libertarians like myself! I am generally an ally of the more staunch conservatives although I don't see eye to eye with them on everything. I still find them soooo much easier to be with than flakey, whiney, R-word obsessed modern "Woke" liberals. There is no place for anyone like that in my life anymore. I would rather be alone.

Everyone has a close friend or two, that they can discuss politics and religion with without worrying about getting into an argument.

Yeah, if you don’t agree with the left you are a problem.
You lefties are so intolerant and bigoted.

 

[Papageorgio]

There are fringes on both sides not just one. Be honest.

More Democrats will drop you over politics than Republicans, that is the climate right now.

 

[Papageorgio]

No need to be compassionate to a fake story.

Unfortunately it is probably true. I don’t get politics over friendship.
