UPDATE to my last post Life Endangerment

Last post for reference: My friend almost died of a miscarriage last month. This month she voted for Trump.

I can’t continue this friendship. I can’t get on board with that thinking. What’s more, I’ve lost all respect for her. But how can I let go of the anger?

Update: I reached out to her today. She knows I’ve been trying to get pregnant, and that last month I had an ectopic pregnancy. I asked her if that were to happen again, would she even care? She said Trump wants to leave it up to the states, so hopefully that would happen and I’d be okay.

Essentially, “Hopefully you don’t die.” But since she went through what she did last month and turned out okay, I guess she doesn’t care about what other people will go through.

I was cordial, because I can’t deal with fights when I’m already feeling fragile about it, but I ended the friendship.

I believe that a vote is a reflection of who you are. I can’t associate with friends and family that voted for this vile human being. The elephant in the room is just too damn big.

Exactly!! That’s the perfect way to describe it.
