Not MY friend, but sadly my brother's taste in both people and ideology leaves something to be desired.
You have my condolences.
Thanks. In truth I'm actually pretty fucked up about it. We have... bad blood, but he's my kin and I can't force him to conform to what I consider wise. I just hope he one day realizes how far up his butt his head is before it's too late to extract it.
My brother tries very hard to get a rise out of me, and our father, by claiming he’s a diehard Trump supporter. As I don’t even bother to acknowledge his statements, he’s not getting the reaction out of me that he wants.
In truth, I think my brother is looked for any kind of revenge he can get for the decades of agony I’ve put him, and his son, through over his/their unwavering dedication to one of the worst sports franchises in Major League Baseball. That, of course, is the Philadelphia Phillies. Being Yankees fans, our dad and I have had a lot to gloat about over the years.
(I suspect Roger will be around soon to formally announce that this is an off-topic thread highjacking, and demand that it be moved elsewhere.)
