Hell no.

This should've been normalized in 2016. Probably long before that even.

"Hell no," is a weird response. Just because you should have done something in the past doesn't mean you can't start now. It should be normalized every year.

That's around when I started cutting people out who couldn't see reason. Haven't seen some people for a decade. They thought it was politics, I pointed out they wouldnt leave their daughter alone with him, maybe not vote for a shitty human being rapist? Cut a lot of ties unfortunately. They thought he was going to save the world LMAO.

Found the last message I sent last person I cut from my life. Can't find one from 2016 atm.


I'm unblocking your number to send this final message.

I don't associate with Trump supporters, FULL STOP. You're free to believe what you want, I'm free to walk away. I set this boundary in 2018 and began enforcing it in 2021 after the Jan 6th Insurrection. I want absolutely nothing to do with this administration.

We started talking about car repair because you seemed like a normal, everyday guy. Learning that you're a proud Trump supporter sucks because I did enjoy helping and hanging out with you. But your views are the completely opposite of mine if you think America is being "saved" by Trump. Your idea of "saving" is very strange.

Trump is a 34x convicted felon (for fraud no less), convicted rapist, accused by dozens of women of sexual assault, who raped his previous wife, hung out with pedophile Epstein (why aren't the Epstein files released? What is Bondi hiding?) regularly on the Lolita Express, talks about wanting to fuck his daughter, selling Trump meme coins, peddling products out of the Oval Office, Tesla commercials on the White House lawn, selling "gold card" citizenships for $50k (you can come to America as an immigrant, as long as you have/bring money), dodged the draft yet talks trash about armed services and veterans, defends the nazi hate group the proud boys, calls voters "stupid", threatening to take away citizenships of anyone he doesn't like or criticizes the government (literally what the nazis did, revoke the citizenship of Germans who opposed them)… I could go on, but it's wasted energy.

Logic and reasoning didn't get you into your current beliefs, login and reason won't get you out.

Every accusation by a republican is a confession.

People who look up to Trump or think their ideals are the same, are NOT people I want to be around. This isn't a political stance, we can debate all day on whether students should get free food at school, or that justice doesn’t exist in the eyes of the law, only punishment, etc. This is a moral issue. I will not be part of this fascist regime that American has become with all these concentration camps and deportations for people coming here for a better life, fighting with our neighbors over tariffs. Everyday it's a new stack of lies and distractions from the previous day, inundated with bullshit so you can't even respond before 27 new issues are hitting headlines.

I will not provide links, if you want to check it, you can google. Unless you discover it on your own, you won't check my links so it's a waste of my time. I've been through this, you aren't the first person to be removed from my life over Trump support and won't be the last.

This is a line I draw. Maybe one day you'll see that this is a hate cult, it's all part of the grift to help the millionaire an billionaire class, but I won't be around to care.

This was excellent. Sorry your friend was an idiot. There is the "bet he would be upset if he could read" joke somewhere but I am so tired of that being true.
