Young American liberal man on young American Trump voting men

The blame game: Mary Trump points out Democrats are doing Trump's work for him [nb I've already seen 2 pundits say Black women are unlectable and 3 say we should throw transgender people under the bus. ETA here's another one! Please note the DARVO. I may send Mary Trump a Christmas card.]

And now some essays from liberal people in families with Trump voters:

I'm A First-Generation Indian American Woman. I Married Into A Family Of Trump Supporters.

My husband and his family voted for Trump so I'm cancelling [her involvement i] Thanksgiving and Christmas

I Told My Trump-Supporting Mom I'm Having A Biracial Baby. Here's What Happened.

I wonder if I'll ever see the Trump voter version of this genre. I kind of doubt it'll be wistful wishes for a known-to-be-unachievable peace and unity. More like, "Once they ban gender changing I'm sending my son to conversion therapy until he quits thinking he's my daughter," and, "Now that the rightful president won I need to fix my ******-loving wife."

One of the lawyers I follow was discussing this phenomenon this week. A lot of it has been coming from shitbirds who want Dems to be less progressive even before Trump won.

There's a women-focused subreddit I'm on where a poster was handed a copy of Laura Schlessinger's How to Properly Care for A Husband, and was told to "follow the rules in this or I'll find someone who can."

I expect to see a follow-up saying she's served him with divorce papers, though I did like the suggestion that she shred the book and use it in meatloaf.

I may send Mary Trump a Christmas card.

I bet she could use them.
