Democrat relatives voting red ......I'm shocked
I have mentioned this in the past month or so, but many of my relatives are democrats.

I rarely spoke to them due to their extreme political views and outspoken hatred of anything not labeled a democrat. And they watched CNN or MSNBC, so they never saw true and accurate information.

This year though has changed their point of views as the economy has boomed. A few of them are business owners and reaping the rewards. Others are upset by how the democrats handled the Kavanaugh affair and now the approaching caravan.

This past weekend I attended a cousin's birthday celebration as she was turning 50. I dreaded having to see or speak to a lot of these people, but they are family. To my surprise they were polite and we actually had civil conversations.

I have to admit I was shocked when all but one admitted they had already voted or were voting for republicans this midterm. These are your typical diehard liberals, yet they saw their party fall to its knees and looking desperate. They also looked beyond the typical liberal news channels and discovered they had been lied to for so long.

So the republicans picked up 30+ votes from my relatives alone, plus some of them told their employees that their pay raise was a result of Trump's policies. Win-win.

Really?!?!

Because my family has employed thousands of workers for the better part of 75 years makes me a shill. Who cares what party they are or were, their business and employees were always cared for. Their employee turnover (as my dad would say) was less than 3% over the last fifteen years. They kept the jobs in the U.S. even though it hurt their bottom line and pocket book.

You've got a few screws loose and as a result are clueless!!

There are many reasonable Democrats (you know, the old fashioned ones that really weren't that different from us) who will be voting red today. They hate Communists just as much as we do.

Re: Democrat relatives voting red ......I'm shocked
yep, that's what i've been telling people too.

just talk to business owners and see if they are happy with the results of the last 2 years.

then of course, there are a lot of people like me who also are extremely please with the last 2 years especially due to the tax cuts that democrats are still in denial about and tell me i didn't receive, but is on my paycheck every single week.
Articles and "news" from liberal media shall now be known as catnip for libtards.

I've seen this with people I know aswell, they have just decided in the past few months or so. Long time liberals, voting republican candidates. They have come to terms with that their party is shit.

The working class people in the north vote Democrat where as in the south they vote republican. It’s nice to see that some working class people are finally figuring shit out on their own and realizing that Democrats are just globalists whom just give lip service to the poor mans plight.

Uh, there are no shortage of "limousine liberals" and "champagne socialists" in the business/corporate class. Some of them, for whatever reason, have done well financially in spite of their lack of overall logic and honesty.

Think of them as economic-political versions of Rain Man or an idiot savant.

Re: Democrat relatives voting red ......I'm shocked
I just talked to my next door neighbors, an elderly couple that use to own 11 McDonald’s franchises. Their son took them over and is running them into the ground. The man is invoking a clause in the contract to take them back.

The son wanted to eliminate the work force and bring in kiosks. The father said he could not stand and watch high school and college kids lose jobs just for profit.

The couple are democrats as is the son. The wife just said they voted for a republican their first time. The son, unfortunately, remains loyal to the beast’s will.

Don't be so harsh, I was a Democrat in my early 20's, a Kennedy Democrat anyway and after I campaigned for Ann Richards for Governor of Texas,( an awesome experience, it made me become a paralegal), I started to wake up...but I have a serious hatred for the EVIL Bush Syndicate. After that I was an Independent until Donald Trump announced that he was running as a Republican, so I changed my party affiliation. PEOPLE DO WAKE UP!

*internet hugs*
That’s why I keep my mouth shut. I admire people like you who speak up. I told my husband and my mother who I really voted for in 2016, but no one else knows. My family doesn’t usually discuss politics, so it’s not so bad.

But I’ll be visiting my in laws for thanksgiving this year. The election before when my sister-in-law asked who I voted for, and I told her I voted for Nader, she called me a racist. They like to make a point of talking politics and I am not looking forward to it. I can only hope they’ll ignore me and not single me out. But at least if it’s too bad I’ll have an excuse to never go back.
