    I live in a very small town, a very red town. The amount of people from friends and family posting rip This means war, etc etc, I’ve already lost most the friends in my life during Trump’s first term. About to lose a few more. wife and daughter are about my only social circle left.

    I have to be very careful with what I post on other social media oherwise I’d most likely lose my job and be blacklisted from the community with no funds to move. Fuck I hate it here.

    I really just want to scream fuck him in the town square

      Right there with you brother. All our town billboards were about Kirk today… Father …husband… Patriot. I never speak politics at work or in social circles. People here assume I’m a repub but the wife and I vote blue in every election. Not that it does any good. Keep on being you on the down low and know you are in some good company.

      You really need to get out of there. We might have to retake that town someday.

        Would love to. My wife and I make more money now than we have at any point in our lives and we have almost nothing to show for it and we’ve worked full time with no layoffs for 30 years and have each only changed jobs once. . We don’t spend frivolously we just don’t save well and when we do it always seems something comes up and wipes out our bank account, health, vehicle, etc.
