Visiting with some dem friends. Dr's, teachers, professionals.
It is useless to discuss Trump. They are not hearing. They are not even trying to look at anything objectively.
Hopeless, blind hate. I told them to enjoy their prosperity and if Trump loses, get ready for economic collapse/higher taxes/etc.
Oh no, they said, democrats with improve the current economic situation. They could repeat leftist press tripe word for word. They had zero knowledge of anything other than hater rhetoric.
It soured my stomach. I had a triple tuaca, pushed my plate away, excused myself, wished them well and left them for all time.
Heading to the gym.

Good for you. I’ve met the exact same type and they can’t be talked to intelligently.

Because they think they are more intelligent than anyone else in the same room. Ego and Hubris.

I have had those experiences as well. And the higher up on the totem pole intellectually (in their minds) the more close minded they are. UGH

I love talking to these people. It is so easy to poke holes in their theories. They soon just get mad and leave.

Point being, there is no changing of minds, no logic, no reasoning, just hate. We might as well just sit back and relax. The chips will fall where they will.

It gets very annoying to deal with that kind of people.
Improve the economy?
I'd like to know how they think the dems will do that.
Higher taxes, more illegals, and more on food stamps.
That won't work and that's always their go to plan.
Now they've added free everything.

The worst feature in our underlying economy is debt. Does anyone truly believe the Democrats will do better on debt reduction?

No, they spend constantly.
I've heard Pelosi in years past say there's nothing to cut.
Then I heard about some of their insane spending later.
There was plenty to cut.
This is when they lied and said give the illegals citizenship and we'll give you your wall.
That's another one where she said there's no money.
They didn't even give a dime of what was promised.

From a Mark Levin interview , when the conversation starts to heat-up; " Can you believe that I feel as strongly in my opinion as you do in yours ? "
It levels the playing field, and the left can't deal with that. They will react, rather than respond...
I disconnect, and another friendship is put on hold.

Huh, and the same could be said of trump lovers as well, no? The unwillingness to think for one's self, to listen to others without bias and the inability to admit that one might be wrong, is not relegated to any single party, ideology or socioeconomic category....................it's a universal human characteristic.

Perhaps that’s because intelligence and Trump are like matter and anti-matter. They cancel each other.
