Exactly. People act shocked about this, but truly, how can you be expected to spend time with people who've shown you exactly how little they think of you??
I'm thankful for the low and slow Diddycrats that destroyed the DNC so all the reasonable politicians would align under a new 1 party system and give Trump all the credit. Welcome Bernie, come on over. See you soon Gavin. Happy Thanksgiving Comrades!!!
You’re not losing any rights. Abortion was not on the ballot, Kamala had no ability to overturn a Supreme Court ruling. The level of brainwash is surreal
@@rhymerlegend2717 This is probably because MAGA tosses fingers in ears and screams it's wrong no matter what anybody tells them. This is why we won't bother with you any longer. Shoo. Go away. No Christmas gifts for you.
I'm a queer with pre-existing conditions, a mother of a daughter, and the daughter of an immigrant. I cut out my Trump supporting family years ago. No regrets. My holidays are filled with love and joy from our chosen family who values our morals. My Trump supporting family lives in rural poverty, in abusive households, and hates each other. Morality matters.
I'm 74, 52 years of cooking for all the holidays. Not this year or the next 4 years. The group is pissed. They are texting me on how do I make this or that. I text back, search Google. It was their lack of concerns or their lack of morals. It saved me 100s of dollars. Maybe they can get something to go. I have no regrets and will enjoy football, wine and TV diner.😂
My Dad was born in that year as well. So glad he is not here to see this monster elected. He was a patriot, a veteran and after that a 29 year employee of a government job. I miss my folks every day but am glad they did not see this. Am an only child, thank God. Will go to my liberal leaning church for the big meal today. Will see trusted friends after that.....,
My parents were born in 1928 and 1934 and were Republicans. I know for certain they wouldn't have voted for trump. Yes they were catholic but I know what my mother felt about trump. She met him several times at Trump tower in the late 80s. She would come home from business trips fuming and disgusted by that man and hiw he treated the people around him. I remember distinctively her saying " He is an evil man" My mother has never said that about anyone but him that I know of. . It's always stuck with me. There's no way I'd ever vote for him

My husband and I are dems. His family is republican. He went for Thanksgiving , I stayed home. I have 3 daughters and 4 grand daughters. I stand with all women. ❤
During COVID my sister (who was also someone I thought I was safe with all these years) posted a meme telling us we needed to pray for Trump and told us that God would lead him, I haven't spoken to her since. My mental health is so much better for it.
Sorry to hear this but it’s an uphill battle. I am agnostic but when people start throwing prayer up as if it was a weapon, the hell with it. When women drop the “polite, don’t make waves” b.s. we start to build genuine self-respect.
He also voted for them to basically a slave who has no rights and to be the property of someone who can beat them without fear of repercussions. Shows how little he thinks of them.

People on the left mostly vote for their beliefs and what's important. Magats just voted to own the libs and make memes. Then they wonder why they don't want anything to do with him.
It's life and death with no exaggeration. Women dying because drs are afraid of jail, there goes health care unless you are wealthy, disability, Medicare, Medicaid. We cannot ride out this storm. Voting is a great right we have but casting a dangerous ballot while ignorant of issues is killing the US. We have lost democracy. Plan 2025
I live in Boston and my boyfriend's son is 27 yr old MAGA. He still lives with his dad. He doesn't have a GED , Drivers License, or JOB! I've been with him for 9 years but have my own place. His son went full MAGA and disrespected me for being a college-educated (Ph.D ) strong woman and pro-Democracy woman. After making every reasonable excuse to avoid going to my boyfriend's house for months, I came out and said that I do not like his son and worked too hard to be disrespected.
I am an immigrant, and I am from Haiti. my dear good friend who is living in Florida is a Trump supporter making excuses to vote for him. Now, He is going to have surgery for the 4th times and he wants me to come and help him the way that I did it for him in the past while his TV was on 24/7 on Fox News each time. Each time, I was staying with him between 4 for 12 weeks. The last time was hell for 3 months as he was going through chemo. I could not sleep at nights due to chemo side effects and I had to work from home during the day when plus I took 45 days off just to help him This time around, I said NO and I won't put my foot to his doorstep ever again! I am done! We are adults and all make our choices and stand by them!
I had to sneak vote. I had to meet my friend at a Family Dollar, drive me to the voting booth so I can vote for the first time. Georgia voter. Voted Harris.
I just stayed at home as the only Harris voter in my family. I cooked a huge meal made up of my daughters favorite foods and we enjoyed it, just us, and I felt so happy.
@@mariamiley3842 the trump supporters vote for hate, suffering and so forth. That decent people does not want to spend time with someone bathing in the Dark Side is obvious. It is corrupting in bature
I am a boomer and I can’t think of one reason that any human being in this country would vote for Donald Trump, not one. I am still floored by the results of the election and allowing greed and Nazism to return to our Earth.
The Nazis tore down statues, banned free speech, instituted gun control, placed the state above God, and enacted strict regulations on industry. What US political party does that resemble?
My dad was part of the silent generation. Born in 1923. He served in World war II. In his last election voting in 2016 when he asked who the candidates were. I told him Trump and Clinton. He said to me who in the hell would vote for that idiot Trump? He was suffering from dementia but even with that he knew that Trump was a disaster. He was a union man through and through and would never vote against his own interests and that of his children.
I told my aunt since she has no morals, I didn't want her on my property, and she wasn't welcomed at my house, and when she showed up I had her arrested for trespassing.
After my family member perpetuated the harmful lie that Haitian people are eating cats and dogs(and then hung up on me) I made places at my table for people from Zambia, Jamaica, India, Cambodia, and my kids…who are African-American. Our house is full, our hearts are full ❤️. No xenophobia will ever be allowed in my house again. “Be sure to put your feet in the right place, then stand firm.” Abraham Lincoln.
Amazing 😢. Wow. It's beautiful 😍 inside your world 🌍 today. ALL Africana Excellence sitting at your table. They'd always make you feel royalty believe that
Not a boomer, Gen Z here, I'm sorry for any of us young dumbasses that fell for Trump's grift. He's just so... Un-American... Idk how anyone that calls themselves a patriot can vote for that Nazi
I have a problem with the media calling boomers Trump supporters. I am 77 years old and most of the people my age that I know fought against everything Trump stands for back in the 60s and 70s. I have been liberal all of my life and most of my friends are liberals.
I'm a late Boomer and I voted for Kamala Harris also! The problem is the media is always lying about real news or over dramatizing things out of perspective. A lot of young White men voted for Trump was the problem.
The issue isn’t Trump… It’s that Trump gave permission to many to be themselves. And most of us don’t want to be around them unmasked, including family.
Yep, I've been pointing out to a lot of jack hats that "you are confusing free speech, with consequence free speech", sorry you thought they were the same thing but they aren't the same
My mother disinvited three of my magat cousins from Holiday celebrations on the grounds that after her father fought the nazis in WWII, to dine with nazis...magats as they are called now...would insult his memory.
Don't forget the huge MAJORITY of US citizens are Trump supporters! The childish name calling didn't serve your side well in the election note will it going forward.
My parents voted for Trump in 2016. They ended up greatly regretting their vote and became anti-MAGA. I am very thankful my parents woke up before joining the MAGA cult. Happy Thanksgiving!
Yes, MAGA is a cult with Trump as its leader. Everyone should look up the traits of cult leaders & their followers. It's scary how Trump & his followers fit ALL the traits.

My MAGA family in Utah uninvited my one gay brother and his partner from Thanksgiving after he said he was disappointed that they would support leaders who want to strip his rights. I fully agree, I am disgusted by my folks. It's the reason I moved 2400 miles away from them.
We are Canadians but we unsubscribed from all platforms that support or normalize Trump, and we have a rule never to allow Trump supporters into our personal lives. Our families and colleagues are also shaking their heads about this election.
Only "social media" I have is an account on TH-cam... And even TH-cam is filled with the bots from troll farms to influence the masses that the hateful right has more of an audience than it actually does.
I'm so sorry, ashamed & embarrassed of what my country has become. I just got to visit Banff recently. What a beautiful country you have and such nice people. I wish we were better neighbors for you. :(
Okay. I am a NON-MAGA BOOMER. I hate everything TRUMP and all that the conservative party stands for. However, due to my age, people assume many of us older individuals follow the trumpsters. Please, people, stop assuming! Us Boomers fought for Civil Rights, Equal Rights, Human Rights, LGBT rights, stood up during the Stonewall Rebellion, were hauled into jail during sit-ins at college campuses, protested against Viet Nam, fought for the right to control our own bodies. We were dragged away, beaten by police, imprisoned, and were courageously involved during the March On Washington. Yes, we attended Woodstock in a peaceful and loving way, while smoking our weed as we embraced each other. We were pacifists fighting the patriarchy. We were every color of the rainbow, under the sun, and many of us still follow this philosophy.
It’s so many people that we probably wouldn’t expect to support the downfall. I’m shocked that so many people don’t actually care about their neighborhoods or communities. They would rather worship a some nutcases via social media then real people in the community. It’s sad times! Literally it’s like no one can be trusted. I’ve seen so many masks off since the election. It’s like these folks have no empathy for anyone around them. It’s so strange cause as GenX, it wasn’t like this growing up at all.
When the media says Booners are Trumpters, they are referring to white Evangelical, so call christian, which mean white supremacy . Don't get it twisted, I am a boomer and I can stand nothing. Trump and his project 2025 racist stands...I don't talk to my white friends who voted against my interest anymore 😡
@alanyoder7629 No, not all Gen Xers. Most of us grew up knowing civics, etc, and learned about the government, freedoms and rights. I will speak for myself, and am grateful for going to schools that taught us how to think critically, racism, and so much more. I'm ashamed for those that voted for the orange traitor.
I didn't invite my Dad this year as he's just as racist, sexist, and homophobic as Trump. He watches Fox news and eats it up even though he's never voted in his life. I'm absolutely over it and I'm done with people who are like him.
Nobody needs to condone that behavior. You are merely removing toxicity from your life. We only have so many days on this planet and I for one, refuse to settle for toxic MAGA nonsense.
I keep hearing from my parents about the "Indians" not the ones from India but the "freeloading" ones that are called aboriginal natives and the funny thing is my mom's bf doesnt pay taxes and hasn't held a steady job in the 20 years he's been in my life. The asshole had the audacity to accuse me of stealing from him... I stopped talking to my mom after I blew up on her in the front yard.
I'm tired of taking the high road and I'll NEVER invite anyone back into my peaceful world that voted against people I love. That's a line I'll never consider again.
Democrats always take the stupid high road. Remember Michelle Obama's moronic comment that when they go low we go higher. I was enraged when I heard that. I'm so sick of democrats being likev the bullied kid in the playground who refuses to fight back because it's not nice. F that.
Yep, Low road today and for the rest of time. I'm sitting here in comfortable clothes and a day robe setting up a palette and my easel for a day of painting. I might have a turkey sandwich later. I'm...actually absolutely loving this.
Yeah you said a very important word in this statement and that's peaceful. They are so wrapped up in their stupidity and hate there is no peace associating with them
@loriosborne5532 It wasn't about Dump anyway. Dump is just the pretty face for an extreme religious right movement who wants to destroy this country and take over. Their goal is an Abrahamic Nation ruled by OT Law.
Like men competing in women's sports is unacceptable. Like transgender pre-teens is unacceptable, and how DEI is not an acceptable substitute for Merit, Excellence and Intelligence.

We had a Freindsgiving with other friends who don't want to be with their MAGA family. Today was one of the best Thanksgivings in a decade. Gonna do a Friendsmas now as well....
GOOD FOR YOU!!!!!! 👍🏻 ❤️ May you enjoy many more. As a Buddhist, we believe in deciding life plans before incarnating and those people are your soul family as well. Blood is thicker than water but spirit is above all. They have likely all been family of yours in other lives anyway, as well as partners, best friends and mentors. It warms my heart that you have listened to yours.
70% of my Southern Baptist family voted donny. I'm having Thanksgiving with my sweet friends and partner. Cooking a grand feast, and loving life!!! ✊️🫶✊️
To the father who complains about the "suffering" as a result of his daughters being "rude" in refusing to talk to him, if god forbid his daughters or granddaughters are bleeding out in the parking lot because they miscarry and cannot get immediate care they need to survive, because he put the guy that killed Roe v Wade in office who will extend abortion ban nation wide, who is being rude and who is truly suffering?
I'm the old lady here and the only one in my family that voted blue. I have to respect that they don't want to live in the same America I grew old in. It was full of hard work but I loved every minute of it ....... They don't feel the same 😢.
Thank you to the person who who told her kids that "Grandma and Grandpa are in a time-out because they made bad decisions". I'm going to steal that line. It's humorous and yet right to the point. Love it!

I stopped talking to my family member and friend because of our disagreement over Trump for three years now, Trump causes nothing but discord and desertion, in the end causing me to desert them! I being for Democracy not Dictatorship! Couldn’t deal with negative people, hope they all realize their mistake now, they will soon.
Physical distance separates me from family, but I’m blessed with friends who also vote for democracy and decency. Hope you can find similar friends where you are.
Eating alone for you is probably better than being stuck "fighting" with Trump-loving family. Good for you for being a Harris supporter - and Happy Thanksgiving!
Its not about political differences anymore, its about personal ones, the character of people, the simple fact that you condone what a criminal and grifter has done and still does. Trump voters should think about that, and even leave the politics out of it
Thank you. Plenty of other Republican Presidential candidates who aren't adjudicated rapists, convicted felons, or Project 2025ers whom for decades w Repub POTUSes of past we have been able to shake hands with their voters, sup with them, small talk w them at public events.

I am not attending Thanksgiving with my family, nor Christmas. I’ve already hashed it out myself in my head. Today is the first holiday without them. I am finally free of feeling like an outcast. I have never felt so much relief on a family holiday as I do today.
The relief! Yes! I said that to my sisters and best friends when I unmasked on my husband's mom. Afterward, I wanted to feel guilty, and found that... I just... don't! I feel relieved! That's so weird! But feels so good!
@@laughingatlife7100 Aside from that Trrippy Shades doofus who thinks he's clever for posting the same thing in dozens of comments, the most hilarious one is that 'MAGA FTW 2024' fool who posts multiple variations of 'We don't care' in dozens of his own. The irony is so thick it's dripping down from the screen.
I knew early on that I was going to have to skip Thanksgiving with my family this year, and it actually wasn't because of who they voted for. But, i can say, any bad feelings I had for missing a Thanksgiving was wiped away after the election.
Make sure your vaccines are up to date as there's likely to be a shortage of them soon. With no public health standards under MAGA contagious diseases will rapidly spread.
I love how they turned on Fauci when he was Trumps lapdog, but as soon as he spoke against Trump he was treated like a deep state plant and blamed for the whole ordeal.
I'm a boomer, and I didn't vote for him. I had planned to start collecting my retirement next year, and now I'm not sure if Social Security will even exist, or how much of my 401K will disappear when the markets tank.
I feel just as hopeless as those people, the division in my family is horrible . We just don’t discuss politics EVER! However the tension in the air makes everything unpleasant
My eyes are now wide open on a few of my "friends" and I can't close them again. One of them became a US citizen 2 years ago after living here illegally for 30 years. Her glee at mass deportations is almost making me physically ill.
I feel you there. Sadly, my father-in-law is one of those bleeding idiots who voted to have HIMSELF and his whole family deported. My partner and I are not spending the day with him for obvious reasons. I can't stomach looking at or speaking to that stupid traitor. He sold out his own people because he wants to roleplay being the worst version of white that's out there. He's in for a rude awakening though because MAGA do not see him as white, no matter how much he sells out his own heritage and children. They see his skin color and accent and will immediately call to have him investigated for deportation. I'm so sick of these self-hating latino bigots who are so hung up on their own misogyny and race/colorism that they'd vote for a wannabe dictator sex pest criminal. Absolutely done with them. 😡
If you want to demonstrate the kindness and love you want in society, reach out and demonstrate that. It may change a family member or friend in the future.
It is childish to let politics divide families. I voted for MVP Harris and so did my entire family but if someone voted Trump I couldn’t care less because it’s not that serious lol
My farmer family voted Trump. I'm debating reporting the fact that they use undocumented workers. Cancel that, I just stopped debating. Actions have consequences.
I am a Latino. It boggles my mind. That so many Latinos voted for this vile, hateful horror. Knowing full well that he hates us. So very stupid, and sad.
@@BrianWestlakesI know so many businesses owners who voted for trump while relying on illegal immigrants for their businesses. Guess I need to start report them.
I said exactly this to my husband's mother when I severed our relationship and the relationship with my small children (twin 4 year old girls and a 2 year old boy). This woman I've known since 1997, who watched me grow up. Who has known me and was best friends with my parents. I cut her straight TF off and told her exactly this. Our morals choose our politics; we vote with our morals.
@nimideniro8404 It's morals, periodt. Not just ONE moral issue. It is one's entire value system. People who voted for T💩💩💩💩 have none. What are you having a hard time understanding?
After November 5th results I’m in morning for our democracy. I’m a woman, my oldest son is hosting Thanksgiving and voted for the moron. I immediately text him and told him I have no words for him. He voted against everything I hold dearest to my heart. It’s not politics anymore, it’s about morality and integrity. When you vote against your mother and your daughter, you have no place in my heart.
That's sounds like a personal problem. Doesn't sound like your a good mom if you can't handle your kids having different opinions than you. I would never disown my son or daughter for having different opinions even if I don't agree.
@@starkman78 well maybe that's the problem. Morals differ between people, what I think is moral could be different from what you think is moral. What I think is moral is to not disown family over politics, only if they were to really hurt someone, like murder or other extremes.
For me it’s the fact that I explained to them what they might not know,gave them places to look for information including MTN & Legal At. As well as historical documentaries to help show where this could go.They did not care so no I do not care.

You are so lucky. I really wish my whole family was liberal that's why when I become a future parent my kids are going to be liberal and I'm going to keep them away from my conservative extended family 100%.
I spent this Thanksgiving cooking what I want to eat, listening to music, dancing in my kitchen and enjoying being alone. I gave myself a day of pampering and self love because goodness knows so many of us need it. I've seen in many videos and comments that people feel guilty about setting boundaries. I'll put it like this, if someone tells you that you don't matter, they don't matter. If someone puts you down, stand up for yourself. There is a great community here. Nobody is alone. Thankful for you all Meidas Mighty family. Much love to everyone. 💙🤞🗽
We celebrated Thanksgiving yesterday, I invited my uncle... he asked if I invited his daughter (my cousin) I said no, because I haven't spoke to her. Then he calls her from my house and asked for my address so his daughter could come over. I asked if she was coming by herself or with her Trump supporting boyfriend, I said he is not welcome in my home. We are POC and 1 young adult is LGBTQ. Long story short, I packed up the food he brought and some that I made and basically sent him to his own house for thanksgiving so he could invite her and her trump boyfriend over there. I have 3 daughters and we don't want a trump supporter who hates or votes against people who look like us in our house, or around our children.
That sucks that Trump has ruined families and friendships. He is Hitler, except Hitler was intelligent and didn’t have a horrible orange spray tan. I can’t wait for Trump to be out of our lives.
Ben, you are the best of all the Meidas touch guys. Quiet, even-handed, well-informed . . . I wish you were the only one speaking. I don't have much faith in the others. Thanks for listening.
The thing is a good majority of MAGA are only deceived into thinking that they are conservative. I know LGBTQ that are MAGA, and they think they are conservative. I know people that are living together, yet they are MAGA. MAGA evangelicals are the worst and most confused though. It's hard to talk to them because of the hypocrisy and delusion that they live in.
My wife of 15 years is from Ukraine. After three years of so many tears, looking at apartments that we stayed at bombed and destroyed, knowing that families and people were destroyed there with them. The train stations we watched on tv we recognized where we’ve traveled, while we watched people with everything they owned running for their lives. And now I can’t even think of celebrating Thanksgiving with members of my family who showed where their vote that it’s OK her country is destroyed. They talk about how they love her so much, and admire her, but I cannot even look at them. I’m so disgusted and it’s got nothing to do with politics , actually. I’m sure this is how people in the 1930s felt when they were leaving Germany. Exhausted but finally feeling some relief from the detachment.
@@castlerider99 Europe will always support Ukraine. Sending best wishes from Sweden 🇸🇪 hoping that you still can have a decent Thanksgiving the two of you 🦃🦃 Slava Ukraini 💙💛
I'm hoping there is a hand recount given how slim that margin was (less than 1.0%!). But in the meantime, I'm going to keep supporting democracy but also stepping away to take care of me.
Myfamily kind of shut me out 4 years ago. They got lost in the cult. They haven’t invited me in so long, I guess there is no going back.

I'm 76 and have been fighting for equal rights and opportunity for all since by father took me to civil rights and anti-war demonstration in 1962. I agree with others that this is about morals & ethics vs greed and selfishness. We have a right to keep ourselves safe from those who threaten us. Why would I share a meal or any of my precious time with someone who would trade my life, or others, for cheaper gas or a dozen eggs.
Yup...turned down the invite to Thanksgiving dinner with my brother, niece, her husband and whoever else at that table probably voted for Trump. I am shocked and disgusted that they had never done ANY in depth research on what Trump's background and crimes were, or, conversely, didn't feel offended by the campaign rhetoric that was spewed for the whole summer by Trump. I just didn't want to spend any time with people that I felt were ignorant and now that Trump has won, feeling powerful and convinced that all of their wants would now be satisfied. Such idiots.
It's not WHO they voted for. It is WHAT they voted for. Plain and simple.

My dad was born in 1899, and both sets of grandparents had framed pictures of FDR next the picture of the pope.

I miss my folks every day but am glad they did not see this. Am an only child, thank God. Will go to my liberal leaning church for the big meal today. Will see trusted friends after that.....,

If anyone loves daughters or granddaughters, he cannot vote for the other guy. Your vote tells who you are.
You stand with MAGA Women?
During COVID my sister (who was also someone I thought I was safe with all these years) posted a meme telling us we needed to pray for Trump and told us that God would lead him, I haven't spoken to her since. My mental health is so much better for it.
Sorry to hear this but it’s an uphill battle. I am agnostic but when people start throwing prayer up as if it was a weapon, the hell with it. When women drop the “polite, don’t make waves” b.s. we start to build genuine self-respect.
They really don't get it. This is about values, not politics. You took away your daughter's reproductive rights and put them in danger.
He also voted for them to basically a slave who has no rights and to be the property of someone who can beat them without fear of repercussions. Shows how little he thinks of them.

And voted to support fascism. F e'm
It’s not about politics anymore, it’s about love vs. hate, light vs darkness, tolerance vs. intolerance. Stay strong!
Exactly!! Don't care about my best interests have to love you from a distance!!!
It's life and death with no exaggeration. Women dying because drs are afraid of jail, there goes health care unless you are wealthy, disability, Medicare, Medicaid. We cannot ride out this storm. Voting is a great right we have but casting a dangerous ballot while ignorant of issues is killing the US. We have lost democracy. Plan 2025

I live in Boston and my boyfriend's son is 27 yr old MAGA. He still lives with his dad. He doesn't have a GED , Drivers License, or JOB! I've been with him for 9 years but have my own place. His son went full MAGA and disrespected me for being a college-educated (Ph.D ) strong woman and pro-Democracy woman. After making every reasonable excuse to avoid going to my boyfriend's house for months, I came out and said that I do not like his son and worked too hard to be disrespected.
You deserve better. As an intelligent and educated woman, you are entitled to be yourself and speak whatever you think is right. I applaud you.

I am an immigrant, and I am from Haiti. my dear good friend who is living in Florida is a Trump supporter making excuses to vote for him. Now, He is going to have surgery for the 4th times and he wants me to come and help him the way that I did it for him in the past while his TV was on 24/7 on Fox News each time. Each time, I was staying with him between 4 for 12 weeks. The last time was hell for 3 months as he was going through chemo. I could not sleep at nights due to chemo side effects and I had to work from home during the day when plus I took 45 days off just to help him This time around, I said NO and I won't put my foot to his doorstep ever again! I am done! We are adults and all make our choices and stand by them!

I am a boomer and I can’t think of one reason that any human being in this country would vote for Donald Trump, not one. I am still floored by the results of the election and allowing greed and Nazism to return to our Earth.
The Nazis tore down statues, banned free speech, instituted gun control, placed the state above God, and enacted strict regulations on industry. What US political party does that resemble?
My dad was part of the silent generation. Born in 1923. He served in World war II. In his last election voting in 2016 when he asked who the candidates were. I told him Trump and Clinton. He said to me who in the hell would vote for that idiot Trump? He was suffering from dementia but even with that he knew that Trump was a disaster. He was a union man through and through and would never vote against his own interests and that of his children.
Evil lives on.
I still think all the votes weren’t counted. We have to fight against Project 25 and fight for Democracy.

The issue isn’t Trump… It’s that Trump gave permission to many to be themselves. And most of us don’t want to be around them unmasked, including family.

We did the same. Just started feeling that something is not right and carefully did some research As a result we told Bye 👋 to MAGA

Yes, MAGA is a cult with Trump as its leader. Everyone should look up the traits of cult leaders & their followers. It's scary how Trump & his followers fit ALL the traits.

Okay. I am a NON-MAGA BOOMER. I hate everything TRUMP and all that the conservative party stands for. However, due to my age, people assume many of us older individuals follow the trumpsters. Please, people, stop assuming! Us Boomers fought for Civil Rights, Equal Rights, Human Rights, LGBT rights, stood up during the Stonewall Rebellion, were hauled into jail during sit-ins at college campuses, protested against Viet Nam, fought for the right to control our own bodies. We were dragged away, beaten by police, imprisoned, and were courageously involved during the March On Washington. Yes, we attended Woodstock in a peaceful and loving way, while smoking our weed as we embraced each other. We were pacifists fighting the patriarchy. We were every color of the rainbow, under the sun, and many of us still follow this philosophy.
It’s so many people that we probably wouldn’t expect to support the downfall. I’m shocked that so many people don’t actually care about their neighborhoods or communities. They would rather worship a some nutcases via social media then real people in the community. It’s sad times! Literally it’s like no one can be trusted. I’ve seen so many masks off since the election. It’s like these folks have no empathy for anyone around them. It’s so strange cause as GenX, it wasn’t like this growing up at all.
@@SpiritsEnchantments correct.! It’s not us boomers who support trump, it’s gen Xers and gen Zers overwhelmingly and a lot of millennials.
I just don't understand where these boomers went. Like how do you go through all of that and then vote Trump?
When the media says Booners are Trumpters, they are referring to white Evangelical, so call christian, which mean white supremacy . Don't get it twisted, I am a boomer and I can stand nothing. Trump and his project 2025 racist stands...I don't talk to my white friends who voted against my interest anymore 😡
@alanyoder7629 No, not all Gen Xers. Most of us grew up knowing civics, etc, and learned about the government, freedoms and rights. I will speak for myself, and am grateful for going to schools that taught us how to think critically, racism, and so much more. I'm ashamed for those that voted for the orange traitor.
I didn't invite my Dad this year as he's just as racist, sexist, and homophobic as Trump. He watches Fox news and eats it up even though he's never voted in his life. I'm absolutely over it and I'm done with people who are like him.
I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU 💯
I concur!
Nobody needs to condone that behavior. You are merely removing toxicity from your life. We only have so many days on this planet and I for one, refuse to settle for toxic MAGA nonsense.

I keep hearing from my parents about the "Indians" not the ones from India but the "freeloading" ones that are called aboriginal natives and the funny thing is my mom's bf doesnt pay taxes and hasn't held a steady job in the 20 years he's been in my life. The asshole had the audacity to accuse me of stealing from him... I stopped talking to my mom after I blew up on her in the front yard.
I’m a dual citizen living in Canada and it’s tough. I voted Harris. My neighbor from Illinois and he voted Harris too.
I'm tired of taking the high road and I'll NEVER invite anyone back into my peaceful world that voted against people I love. That's a line I'll never consider again.
Ditto.
Democrats always take the stupid high road. Remember Michelle Obama's moronic comment that when they go low we go higher. I was enraged when I heard that. I'm so sick of democrats being likev the bullied kid in the playground who refuses to fight back because it's not nice. F that.

It's not about Dump anymore. It's about morals and accepting the unacceptable.
I agree ! killing babies in the womb because you were whoring around is bad morals
@loriosborne5532 It wasn't about Dump anyway. Dump is just the pretty face for an extreme religious right movement who wants to destroy this country and take over. Their goal is an Abrahamic Nation ruled by OT Law.
Like men competing in women's sports is unacceptable. Like transgender pre-teens is unacceptable, and how DEI is not an acceptable substitute for Merit, Excellence and Intelligence.
If you dislike trump voters then you are the evil within it seems. Trump haters have no place in this country.
It’s only been about morals for me.

I feel just as hopeless as those people, the division in my family is horrible . We just don’t discuss politics EVER! However the tension in the air makes everything unpleasant
My eyes are now wide open on a few of my "friends" and I can't close them again. One of them became a US citizen 2 years ago after living here illegally for 30 years. Her glee at mass deportations is almost making me physically ill.

I feel you there. Sadly, my father-in-law is one of those bleeding idiots who voted to have HIMSELF and his whole family deported. My partner and I are not spending the day with him for obvious reasons. I can't stomach looking at or speaking to that stupid traitor. He sold out his own people because he wants to roleplay being the worst version of white that's out there. He's in for a rude awakening though because MAGA do not see him as white, no matter how much he sells out his own heritage and children. They see his skin color and accent and will immediately call to have him investigated for deportation. I'm so sick of these self-hating latino bigots who are so hung up on their own misogyny and race/colorism that they'd vote for a wannabe dictator sex pest criminal. Absolutely done with them. 😡
Why do you think its ok for your husband and his family to come into this country illegally?

If you want to demonstrate the kindness and love you want in society, reach out and demonstrate that. It may change a family member or friend in the future.

It is childish to let politics divide families. I voted for MVP Harris and so did my entire family but if someone voted Trump I couldn’t care less because it’s not that serious lol
The big red flag here is "I LET them vote how they wish". For that alone they are excused for being DONE with you.

My farmer family voted Trump. I'm debating reporting the fact that they use undocumented workers. Cancel that, I just stopped debating. Actions have consequences.
I am a Latino. It boggles my mind. That so many Latinos voted for this vile, hateful horror. Knowing full well that he hates us. So very stupid, and sad.
@@BrianWestlakesI know so many businesses owners who voted for trump while relying on illegal immigrants for their businesses. Guess I need to start report them.
No trumpers or MAGA at our table this year. We give total thanks for that. Amen.
As a Trump voter, thank you. We don't need whiny little bitches at our tables
Everyone is happy
They just don’t understand that they voted against all the values they raised their children with.
I agree, it's not a political issue, it is a moral issue.
I said exactly this to my husband's mother when I severed our relationship and the relationship with my small children (twin 4 year old girls and a 2 year old boy). This woman I've known since 1997, who watched me grow up. Who has known me and was best friends with my parents. I cut her straight TF off and told her exactly this. Our morals choose our politics; we vote with our morals.
Exactly! Character counts@@danielleyoder5226
And whats that moral issue?
@nimideniro8404 It's morals, periodt. Not just ONE moral issue. It is one's entire value system. People who voted for T💩💩💩💩 have none. What are you having a hard time understanding?
After November 5th results I’m in morning for our democracy. I’m a woman, my oldest son is hosting Thanksgiving and voted for the moron. I immediately text him and told him I have no words for him. He voted against everything I hold dearest to my heart. It’s not politics anymore, it’s about morality and integrity. When you vote against your mother and your daughter, you have no place in my heart.
That's sounds like a personal problem. Doesn't sound like your a good mom if you can't handle your kids having different opinions than you. I would never disown my son or daughter for having different opinions even if I don't agree.
@@smartman20A these are not “different opinions.” They are different morals.
@@smartman20A For the life of me, I can't figure out your last sentence.
@@starkman78 well maybe that's the problem. Morals differ between people, what I think is moral could be different from what you think is moral. What I think is moral is to not disown family over politics, only if they were to really hurt someone, like murder or other extremes.
... * MOURNING ... did intelligence take the day off for the holiday ??
I'm not canceling my morals for your seat at the table.
For me it’s the fact that I explained to them what they might not know,gave them places to look for information including MTN & Legal At. As well as historical documentaries to help show where this could go.They did not care so no I do not care.
If they voted for Trump there is no need to keep them in the circle of trust. They are outside the circle of trust.
Hear me, Focker? I got my eyes on you!
Lol
I need to be inside bars
Nice DeNiro reference!
@@richardlence5895 I'm thankful for the low and slow Diddycrats that destroyed the DNC so all the reasonable politicians would align under a new 1 party system and give Trump all the credit. Welcome Bernie, come on over. See you soon Gavin. Happy Thanksgiving Comrades!!!
Well said!
My Trump voting family and I have barely spoken since 2016. My life is so peaceful now. My son and I are both dems and enjoy every moment we have.
And so you should Have an enjoyable day doing things you love Even if it s just watching movies Get outside enjoy the wonders of nature if u have pets Give them extra love Hope your day is peaceful love 🇨🇦
❤
My Son and I are in the same boat! And I don't miss them
Wow BRO ? You just made my day I’m in the same boat but it’s so darn peaceful for me ! Plus I couldn’t afford the fake gold Air Jordans or the SWISS MADE FOLEX watch HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO YOU ! 👍
My trump loving family member died from COVID-19 & I miss her uniformed ass.
I am having Thanksgiving with my girlfriend, we are not spending time with any of our family who all voted trump.
Stop avoiding my supporters

Willing to bet that the GF already got some GOP stuffing....
"Misled by propaganda," or maybe we just heard Trump speak, and didn't like the vile crap coming out of his mouth.
the fact that a father voted to have their autonomy rights removed says it all, he deserves nothing and certainly does not deserve their company
Or the fact that he is totally oblivious to what he actually voted against. As in against his own Daughters is mindbogling
The fact that Im not in prison is crazy
@sherrimcgrath5910 Exactly. He doesn't even seem to recognize the fact that he chose Trump over his own flesh and blood - that this might be something he should examine about himself??
Walked away from my "family" over a decade ago. It was hard, but worth it. Their dysfunction and criminality was too much.
Stop running from my supporters
I am lucky to have no family members that liked or voted for Trump. I feel bad for people who do.
Me too! I hurt for those who have to make such a rough decision. 😢
Same
All my family hates trump so we get along
You are so lucky. I really wish my whole family was liberal that's why when I become a future parent my kids are going to be liberal and I'm going to keep them away from my conservative extended family 100%.
Then you have a lot to be thankful for, your family are not idiots.
Nope no mending relationships. At least for another 10 years. They have no idea what they did to us.
I spent this Thanksgiving cooking what I want to eat, listening to music, dancing in my kitchen and enjoying being alone. I gave myself a day of pampering and self love because goodness knows so many of us need it. I've seen in many videos and comments that people feel guilty about setting boundaries. I'll put it like this, if someone tells you that you don't matter, they don't matter. If someone puts you down, stand up for yourself. There is a great community here. Nobody is alone. Thankful for you all Meidas Mighty family. Much love to everyone. 💙🤞🗽
You go girl.
God bless you❤
Perhaps you realized how dumb your relatives really are.
@JGBWL Thanks friend. Sending you good vibes. 💙🤞🗽
@@leohayward3853 We have to take care of ourselves because this is stressful. I hope you had a good Thanksgiving. Xo 💙🤞🗽
We celebrated Thanksgiving yesterday, I invited my uncle... he asked if I invited his daughter (my cousin) I said no, because I haven't spoke to her. Then he calls her from my house and asked for my address so his daughter could come over. I asked if she was coming by herself or with her Trump supporting boyfriend, I said he is not welcome in my home. We are POC and 1 young adult is LGBTQ. Long story short, I packed up the food he brought and some that I made and basically sent him to his own house for thanksgiving so he could invite her and her trump boyfriend over there. I have 3 daughters and we don't want a trump supporter who hates or votes against people who look like us in our house, or around our children.
I would have packed what he brought only, then sent him on his way.
Fantastic! Good for you.
That sucks. Trump has ruined lives, families and friendships. He is Hitler, except Hitler was intelligent and did not have a orange spray tan.
That sucks that Trump has ruined families and friendships. He is Hitler, except Hitler was intelligent and didn’t have a horrible orange spray tan. I can’t wait for Trump to be out of our lives.
Wow. I had to look up POC though. We're all going to be Brazilians, with or without their consent.
No sympathy I’m afraid. Reap what you sow 😂
Their eating the turkeys
@@MyUberRanMeOver they’re eating turkey like we’ve never seen in our country’s history
@@MyUberRanMeOver lol, yep
Ben, you are the best of all the Meidas touch guys. Quiet, even-handed, well-informed . . . I wish you were the only one speaking. I don't have much faith in the others. Thanks for listening.
I gave up on conservatives in 2016. They are not your friends.
The thing is a good majority of MAGA are only deceived into thinking that they are conservative. I know LGBTQ that are MAGA, and they think they are conservative. I know people that are living together, yet they are MAGA. MAGA evangelicals are the worst and most confused though. It's hard to talk to them because of the hypocrisy and delusion that they live in.
Im a orange juice felon
They are not conservative either. Thay are extremists.
Happy Thanksgiving from one democracy fighter to another.
Well we can't Fix Stupid
I am calling them regressives. They only thing they are trying to conserve is billionaires.
My wife of 15 years is from Ukraine. After three years of so many tears, looking at apartments that we stayed at bombed and destroyed, knowing that families and people were destroyed there with them. The train stations we watched on tv we recognized where we’ve traveled, while we watched people with everything they owned running for their lives.
And now I can’t even think of celebrating Thanksgiving with members of my family who showed where their vote that it’s OK her country is destroyed. They talk about how they love her so much, and admire her, but I cannot even look at them. I’m so disgusted and it’s got nothing to do with politics , actually. I’m sure this is how people in the 1930s felt when they were leaving Germany. Exhausted but finally feeling some relief from the detachment.
@@castlerider99 Europe will always support Ukraine. Sending best wishes from Sweden 🇸🇪 hoping that you still can have a decent Thanksgiving the two of you 🦃🦃 Slava Ukraini 💙💛
I am sorry for your loss
I am so sorry. I have no other words.
I'm sorry to hear that. Thank you for sharing.
Trump will do his best to hand over Ukraine to Putin.
Country over party. Country over family. I can't be a part of traitors.
I'm hoping there is a hand recount given how slim that margin was (less than 1.0%!). But in the meantime, I'm going to keep supporting democracy but also stepping away to take care of me.
Myfamily kind of shut me out 4 years ago. They got lost in the cult. They haven’t invited me in so long, I guess there is no going back. However, I will be spending this very blessed day with my best friend and her family. I am so Thankful for the wonderful friends I have made in my 60+ years here on earth.
Be thankful it will only give you High Blood Pressure. ITS ONLY ME DAY.
They are doing you a favor, who needs them!!
Reading the comment here, it sounds to me there are 2 cults. I feel sad for America.
You're NOT alone. But, may I add, count our 🙌 blessings 🙌 and be glad. Happy Thanksgiving.
That's the family KAMALA spoke on having and building Once Love exists in your ❤️. It's a fruitful Love adopted Not Defensive love
I'm 76 and have been fighting for equal rights and opportunity for all since by father took me to civil rights and anti-war demonstration in 1962. I agree with others that this is about morals & ethics vs greed and selfishness. We have a right to keep ourselves safe from those who threaten us. Why would I share a meal or any of my precious time with someone who would trade my life, or others, for cheaper gas or a dozen eggs.
But it's not going to be cheaper, no way, it's going to be a lot more expensive, way to go, you are a yellow belly person
Australians don't do Thanksgiving, but this year I'm thankful not to be an American. 💙🇭🇲
I know that's right!
I'm thankful you're not as well.
Imagine letting politics come between you and family
Just don’t be stupid like us learn from our silly mistakes we may lose democracy 250 years of struggle to keep it gone in 1 election
@@ReVelopersAustralia has its own set of problems they have to contend with, not sure if they’ve rectified what they did to the Aboriginals
Thanks Ben for discussing this important issue too many are facing this holiday season. ❤❤❤
I have no problem celebrating without enduring bigotry and smug ignorance from relatives I long ago lost touch with.
Not spending Thanksgiving with any Trump supporters. And couldn’t be happier!
They're likely happy they won't have to listen to you spaz about the stupidest shit anymore😂😂😂😂😂
Typical behavior of abusers; its never their fault, and the abused should just roll over and take it.
It's never my fault fake news
Misery loves company. They deserve loneliness.
@34FeloniesGuiltyofRape45 😂
Yup...turned down the invite to Thanksgiving dinner with my brother, niece, her husband and whoever else at that table probably voted for Trump. I am shocked and disgusted that they had never done ANY in depth research on what Trump's background and crimes were, or, conversely, didn't feel offended by the campaign rhetoric that was spewed for the whole summer by Trump. I just didn't want to spend any time with people that I felt were ignorant and now that Trump has won, feeling powerful and convinced that all of their wants would now be satisfied. Such idiots.
