My non-scientific review of social media and studying what my friends and acquaintances post...my Conservative friends display far more good manners and courtesy than my Liberal friends.
Civility will reign at my Thanksgiving table. No Gruber people have been invited.
We’re pretty fortunate as our whole family is quite conservative. I honestly don’t even think I’d invite a friend or family member if I knew they were liberal. I’ve just gotten to the point that I really don’t associate with liberals anymore. Why be around people that are helping to destroy this great country? I’d rather distance myself from them.

Life is too short to spend time with someone you dislike.

Some of our past Thanksgivings were rather exciting prior to our liberal relatives moving south.
When I lived in Minnesota, I was invited for Thanksgiving by some liberals, and we did keep it civil. I must clarify however that these were old school Hubert Humphrey liberals, and they were pro-2A as well (as was Old Hubert).
That said, I had an aunt I treasured, an old-line, fire-breathing liberal who was actually up to the contest. We used to savor telling one another we were idiots because neither of us really believed it. What has gone from political discourse these days is that sense of mutual respect. It isn't pleasant without it.
lucky you… my hubby,sis and I will be surrounded by 13 foaming at the mouth Liberal adults. and 14 kids who have been raised the same, my son is the only Conservative. It is like a Contest to see who can provoke us. I hate it!
Because my siblings are scattered around the country and have large families we had our first of this years two Thanksgivings in East Kentucky last weekend. We nominated Senator Cruz for President, unanimously. Thursday, in Mississippi, we’ll have our second Thanksgiving and elect him.
Gruber, that creep with the yammering, nattering, Asperger voice.
Every situation I’ve ever been in where liberals and conservatives were mingled, the liberals proclaim their beliefs loudly and confidently, because what they think is that all halfway-decent people think. Conservatives are expected not to bring up “politics.”
It will be interesting, I have a few distant mexican inlaws of questionable origin scheduled to come over.
See if they show.
Humphrey seems to be the last honest democrat I can recall. Saw him at a campaign stop in '68 at the Astrodome in Houston when i was 14. Actually went to see Frank Sinatra, Nancy Sinatra and Trini Lopez. ;o)
I was sitting next to a Republican. It was if I was sitting next to a KKK Nazi...
Both Democrat groups! Ha ha ha ha ha aaaaa!
This is why the rules of not talking about politics or religion have to be enforced.
Your attitude is downright rude,
your jokes appall me, they’re so crude,
why don’t you just drop dead and not recover?
You’re the mirror to my mood,
‘cause you hate me and I hate you,
at least we’ve come to understand each other.

Q. Why do Liberals lock their Doors?
A. To protect themselves from other Liberals.
