Robust political discussions may not be on the menu for many Americans preparing to celebrate Thanksgiving.

A Quinnipiac University poll released Monday found that about 6 out of 10 voters, or 61 percent, said they hope to avoid talking about politics during the holiday celebrations.

However, the poll also said 29 percent of voters said they are eager to talk about politics.

“A healthy dose of ‘zip it’ will be on the menu as voters acknowledge that if they plan on ‘talking turkey’ over the big meal, it will be about the food and not about politics,” Quinnipiac University Polling Analyst Tim Malloy said.

I thought libs hated Thanksgiving? They should just stay home and STFU.

Who the heck are the 29% who WANT to spoil dinner?

That leaves absolutely nothing to talk about.

[KC Burke]

Well you could talk about Religion, Racial Justice, Pronouns, Welfare, or that all time favorite: Everybody’s Last Trip to the Doctor.

How are you? Fine.

And you? Fine.

Can’t talk inflation, can’t talk cars, So much has been politicized.

[dragnet2]

Everybody should just quietly sit there and make faces at each other.

But, but, but...the Dems think politics during holiday get-togethers is the thing to do! It worked so well the last time they tried it. Everybody had a rollicking good time as they were hanging the stockings with care and comparing plans...

Considering my entire family are staunch Trump supporting Conservatives, i’m sure the topic ill arise at some point.

I quit dining/associating with any democrat acquaintances about 20 years ago, and I don’t have any democrat relatives that I know of-I like to have unrestricted conversation that is pleasant when I dine/socialize with others...

The leftists have nothing to celebrate—if they had their way the Indians would have genocided whitey.

HA! All our kids are varying degrees of conservative-libertarian. On Thanksgiving we have a lot of fun making fun of libtards.

Only one of my kids is with us this year. We often talk politics.

[Vaduz]

Indeed it’s how we got into this mess those who ignore the real issues of our troubles.

Pals of Biden

Hey everyone, does everyone remember buck tooth Bobby from the old neighborhood? He's now an ugly woman.....Whoops...

[dragnet2]

[FlingWingFlyer]

Probably because their big fat asses voted for Bidenskyyyyyy and his far-left turd rollers. Embrace the suck and eat your cranberry sauce.

[dragnet2]

Thanks for coming everyone, now lets be as phony as possible and only talk about rainbows lollypops and butterflys!

Sadly many of our family and friends are mentally ill when it comes to current events and how they get thier information and how they present it with anger in the wings if you dont agree
