My sister called me and said they decided to exclude our brother and his wife from Thanksgiving Dinner because they are openly Trump supporters. We have had that dinner at her house since our parent passed away five years ago. I was honestly shocked, I had no idea how petty my sister was.
I almost told her both my wife and I voted for Trump, in the past I have refused to talk politics with my family because it always turned into a shouting match. I put the phone down and just sat there then told my wife who was also shocked. My brother has two young children who all loves to play with our three and my sisters son. As we live two hours away we don’t meet up often.
We have decided to skip the dinner and I have decided to tell my sister we also voted for Trump and then say forget about getting together for Christmas. Instead we are inviting my brother and his family for both holidays. I will tell my sister her family is not welcome.
I hope this little protest of hers is worth it.
