2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumJust got off the phone with my cousin in NC...GAH!
He swears he ain't voting for trump, but he can't vote for Hillary, because, Benghazi.
It got heated, words, cussin' type words was exchanged, but I think I may have cracked his fox news armor a bit.
Especially so, once fascism was explained to him. He honestly had no idea.
He may be a redneck from NC, but then again...I was too.But I LEARNED some valuable shit since I moved away. Now it's his turn for some larnin'.
He's family, and I refuse to give up on him. Because I love the stupid asshole.

NOT that it would change his mind
You changed, but you had to move up and out of the place you were. Anyway, good luck to you and especially to him.
