it was meant to be sort of humorous, but I actually wondered if anyone else had any of the same experiences and could share the ways they resolved them.
i guess just avoiding the topic, or steering it away from or around the prickly issues is probably the best and only real way to deal with it. anyone uncouth enough to start blathering about politics around people who's opinions they aren't aware of, or don't agree with is probably not worth reasoning with anyway (in person at least; not on the internet...)
I don't want to just not go without letting him know why, but that might be pointless; this might be the last year I go anyways.
well if you really want to be brutally honest, quick and say something that wouldnt spark a ton of back n forth.....just tell him you couldnt trust a guy that changes his stance on everything every couple months and lies thru his teath on most topics. That you couldnt respect someone who ran on Fox news' talking points instead of his own convictions. He let everyone run his campaign for him to the point where no one knew who the fuck he was. That youd rather have someone that had a better chance of taking charge of our country...instead of a robot that does whatever hes told.
