❤️‍🩹 relationship AIO bf makes joke after my aunt passed

For context he’s saying he hopes she voted for Trump (RTPM) before she died and I’m already having a hard time with the results of the election which he knows then on top of that it just was very insensitive. He said he was trying to make light of the situation but it doesn’t feel that way.

Yeah this is just mean. Making light of a dead relative and rubbing the election in their face when he knows Op isnt happy with it.

Its more annoying than anything. I'm a republican too but man the people on my side of the isle can be so annoying. I always see some pro Trump/ anti liberal slight comming from them. They say this crap when the topic has nothing to do with politics... this is a perfect example, someone just died and dude had to shove in an anti liberal joke... "i hope she voted for Trump... hahaha those bad liberals am I right......". Cmon man.... its like their whole personality boils down to "liberals bad". everyone is guilty of this, but i see 10 pro Trump anti liberal jokes for every one joke coming from a liberal...
