lefties have become almost radical in this country. They attempt to censor anyone that doesn't support them and they're so oversensitive from today's coddling society that they can't handle any criticism. Add to the fact the media is 99% liberal and the education institutions are probably 80% and it doesn't help things. Maybe if they could actually think outside the box and have moderate viewpoints, but no, they're interested in being super radical socialists if anything.

I cant blame anyone for hiding their support of Trump. Liberals today are almost exclusively extremist wingnuts. There is no such thing as a tolerant liberal anymore, which is really too bad. On second thought, I shouldn't say that because there is one guy from college that I saw at homecoming who is as liberal as they come but still has an open mind and isn't a hateful POS like most leftists.

Why would you blame it on the media. They didn't force anyone to not speak to those who oppose their views. Blame it on the person who is caught up way to much in politics. I'm a dem and some family and friends are republicans. So what.

Love it. My wife deleted every FB friend that was promoting that lying cheating, mean, crooked Hillary. Personally I don't care if they delete me because I can't stand that Crook, I think they're easily manipulated fools if they're for Hillary.

It boils down to this. Unless you're incredibly obnoxious about it, having a family that would ostracize you over any political position would seem to explain why there are so many mentally aberrant posters in this forum with extreme political loyalty to one party or another.

I think you and your wife are more invested in politics than your friends. How sad is that

Every family member , friend and person that I know that is voting supports Trump and will vote Trump. One woman does not vote, she is not interested in politics.., One will not vote because he is a Bernie supporter. All others are voting Trump. Every one. All neighbors -Trump!

Life is too short to waste time with people I think have repugnant values and beliefs. I don't talk politics because if I find out someone is a lefty, I involuntarily can't stand them anymore.

"Have You Been Ostracized From Family, Relatives or Friends Due To Supporting Trump?"


Nope, they are all right there with me in support of Trump.


Even friends that I would usually expect to vote Dem are supporting Trump.
