I refer to Brando as my secret weapon. I began sending/posting links to my very large, extended family in Tennessee (technically, they are the family of my ex-husband, but they are blood relatives of my children and still treat me like family after all of these years) ALL but one of them was a firm Trump supporter when I introduced them to Brando, not that I hadn't been trying to change their mind since 2016. The response was beyond my expectations. They ARE listening and rethinking; we're exchanging thoughtful and meaningful emails, though a few of the extremely religious ones sent me replies and told me I was going to burn in hell... Keep on spreading the messages of truth; we can't stop now. It IS making a difference.
Oh Susan! This gives me chills and thrills for you and for your family who is beginning to see. You're so brave to not give up on them. I mean, the "burn in hell" messages, well, there will always be a few that need to clutch onto their masked hate and anger. hahaha
Thank you, but I am not courageous; when I see something I believe is wrong, the words just come tumbling out. I've been this way since childhood, which hasn't always served me well. I must mention that one of my daughters is a full-blown MAGA, and she's in deep. She lives less than 5 miles from me but hasn't let me see my beautiful granddaughters for nearly 4 years now. My heart is broken in a way I could have never imagined. So there's that. And there are so many more out there with similar stories to mine. I hate what Trumpism has done to our country - on all levels.
Congratulations!
