My dad's rationale for not liking Kamala Harris was that she had a weird laugh. That was it, that was the whole thing. She couldn't possibly be competent, he claimed, because of that sole reason. Anytime I pointed out anything about Trump, it went back to Harris' laugh, as if that were somehow the basis and foundation of political acumen.
Yeah I stopped talking to my dad about politics. Whenever he tries to make something political I pivot. Itâs funny, he wasnât political at all before 2016 and now we have drink coasters with the picture of trump raising his fist with a bloody ear.
Also hilariously the sub warned me about âstarting a flame warâ when I mentioned the orange man. When I delete his name, the warning disappears lol. Trump sucks.

In 2016, after the second Clinton-Trump debate, a co-worker literally said to me, "I don't like that she had an answer for everything."
I responded, "Isn't it good that she has experience, she's cared enough to prepare?"
"I didn't like it."
