My husband’s support for Trump is poisoning our marriage. Should I get a divorce?

If this marriage thing is not all fake:

They’re married. They need to keep their vows.

She needs to listen to her husband and grow up.

He’s right, and I’m wrong.

Truer words were never written!

Was it Laz who had the tagline:

Whoever it was, it was funny.

To paraphrase Cromwell speaking of the Rump Parliament,

“Go, be gone! In the name of God, go!”

The Carviles! How long have they been married now? Kellyann Conway and her spouse (George) have been married how long and how much longer?

If no fan of POTUS TRUMP, suggest the anti-Trump Ms pack her bags and move along. There’d be plenty of pajama boys this damaged individual might choose. She has no taste for men, apparently.

My wife hates Trump and I like him. But she’s not a political animal so no problem at all.

Good idea. He will be free to marry a normal person.

Sounds like he has been tolerating an impressive level of crazy. My advice: she shouldn't leave him. It's a rare breed that will stick by you through crazytown; he's one of the good ones. If she does leave him, he won't feel "punished" so much as "freed".

I think they are incompatible. It’s amazing it took them 8 years to realize.

The only Trump supporter that I know who abuses his family about the fact is my ex who torments his mom. He is an ex-liberal and she has written him out of her will. IMO the money is what this is about far more surely than the politics. I know Proggies who will cut you off without a thought, but Trump supporters are by and large a practical bunch who love their families.

It reads like two men in marriage to me. David Eddie? Husband?

My wife turned on him eventually, after voting for him. She is still a conservative, but just doesn't like how unpresidential he is. I get it, I am not a huge fan of all the antics, but she hates him personally now, and has started falling for some of the fake news. Me, I dont like the antics, but I am still a staunch supporter of his policies, and if I really asked her, she would be too. But we dont talk much politics about TRUMP, we keep it to the policies and we are good.

What normal woman describes her husband as “alt-right”? That is a media expression used to demonish any non-squish conservative as racist. Sounds to me like fake news.

I went through this some time ago.

My wife told me that I was not interested in discussion, and I had a tendency to lecture and refused to listen. This was back in the Clinton Administration.

Thankfully, I listened to her that day, and started leaving room for discussion and alternate opinions. Our conversations became much more civil, and my volume dropped from 11 down to a 3. Over time, we have become much more similar in our political opinions, and are no longer cancelling each other out every Election Day.

Husbands, you are in this for the long haul. You are not trying to win an argument today. If she doesn’t agree, she is entitled to her opinion. If you do not respect her, you will not have to deal with her for long.

If your husband was smart, he wouldn’t leave you any choice.
