Sadly my wife is a liberal who still watches CNN and discusses politics only with her equally liberal friends.
She and her friends hold the view that all conservative thinking people are stupid or have been brainwashed by Fox News. They believe Trump is virtually the anti Christ and he actually destroyed the country. They lament inflation and high gasolines prices but that was all Trump’s fault. My wife, a PhD, tried to tell me that high gas prices were due to Trump and the oil companies colluding to make Biden look bad. She also believes that every increase in gasoline prices is due to oil executives raising prices so they can buy new yachts.
It is impossible to have any intelligent discussion given their firm belief in such utter claptrap. I taught college economics and cannot discuss even basic principles of supply and demand with my wife as she is convinced that there is no market just business fat cats manipulating prices because they can. I simply stay silent perhaps in the vain hope they eventually will recognize the lies they have been fed.
Whoa.
In what field is your wife a Phd? It sounds as if she isn’t liberal at all, but is instead a horrid Leftist. Big diff.
In any event, I don’t understand how you can remain together with such divergent worldviews.
So, while I admitedly don’t understand, I’ll have to admire your ability to remain married.
I wouldn’t even have a one-night-stand with a leftist, much less marry one.
