    Anyone from or know of families falling apart from divisiveness of the election?

    I certainly do. My family, Mostly Independents, are using their Clinton bias for refusing to not only come to terms that she lost, but, yes, not all the family voted for her. Their insistence that they are "right" and others are "wrong" creates quite the riff.

    Some people will never admit defeat, even in the name of Thanksgiving and unity of family.

    And that's a shame.

    The very fact that you say "some people will never admit defeat" tells me that you are part of the cause of your little family problem.
    Sounds like you just want to start a fight. Yay, you. Not biting.

    Newsflash: Hillary lost.
    No, I didn't want to start a fight at all. I was just making a statement. Maybe take something from what I said, because I'm pretty sure I'm right.
    Of course you think you're right.
    well, in the spirit of context, did you frame it that way to your family? "hillary/you lost, get over it"?
    Hugh, I was not involved. I talked about my ex BIL, my nephew and the rest of my family being Hillary supporters that continue to blame others for her loss.

    If you're not gonna discuss without trying to start a fight, I will not engage you.

    To whom is that addressed?

    Much of what I've read in this thread doesn't seem like anyone has been looking for a rumble.

    (but if so, I'm curious who are the Sharks and who are the Jets)
    And who gets to be Officer Krupke??

    What did I write pre-edit? I have no clue, but am very comfortable with you repeating it, whatever it was. (I thought I simply added that you're a hypocrite, but maybe I forgot something?)

    I know how I voted, but don't really know about the rest of my family. I'm 1000% ok with that. Family is the by far most important thing to me and no matter how much I may disagree internally with any other family member's views, I will leave it alone. Why? Because life is too fucking short.

    My hope is that no matter how nasty the election was...and how divided our country (and/or families) seems to be over the result of the election...that we as a country, will take a long look in the mirror and make some changes. That's my $0.02.

    Happy Holidays, everyone.
