    Nope, as I have answered before my family is united in support for President Trump.

    Families have always been divided this way. What else is new?

    That, coupled with money, inheritance, lust, greed, envy, religion and a cast of a thousand more reasons.

  • One case that comes to mind is King David's son Absalom fomenting revolution against his father's kingdom. So it's safe to say that family strife is as old as mankind. I love too, how the ones responsible for most of the division in modern America are the ones doing the most lecturing. The current class warfare nurtured by the left, has set this nation back a hundred years.

    Speaking of the bible, the story of Jacob and Esau is the classic example of a family rift over an inheritance.

    Uggh.  It is VERY hard to even bring up politics in front of anyone these days.  It is like the white elephant in the room which divides everyone no matter if you are blood or just a passing stranger these days.

    No, my family is mixed with conservatives and democrats and we sill manage to get along. The conservatives are more loud about their political beliefs and I'm always just like "yeah yeah I've heard it a million times" then either change the subject or let them ramble on and just ignore them.

    There is one Conservative among our friends/family. Everyone else is a Progressive Liberal. We simply don't discuss politics when he is among us. Thank you for your reply and Happy Friday.
