'The arguments have gotten pretty horrible in our house. I'd be lying to say I haven't considered divorce over it.'
Chip Somodelvilla / Getty Images / Anna Moneymaker / Getty Imagespeople who vote differently than their partners how it's affected their relationship, and they had a range of responses. Here are the most fascinating ones:"My partner leans right, and I lean left . I'm not going to lie; it's been rough at times.
"I met my now husband in 2018; he had just moved to my city from a small town. I was very passionate about politics and current events at the time, and when he mentioned that in 2016, he had voted for Trump, that was almost the end for me. But, he was very open at admitting he didn't have a long of strong reasons WHY he did it… he wasn't very politically involved or informed. It was mostly due to the constant one-sided propaganda he was subjected to back in his hometown.
when the tensions rise over politics, we remind ourselves that we chose each other to ride out this journey by each other's side"My hubby is a conservative, and I'm blue to my core! We rarely discuss politics because it can get pretty heated when/if we do. It pisses me off because he is only conservative because all of his old, rich, white male friends are, and they all love Trump because they all have money.
"We used to be much more aligned, but his views shifted when he was laid off and struggled to find work. He now became the 'heterosexual white male' who was being discriminated against and blamed for the diversity & inclusion programs. Since then, he has leaned more to the right and has lost all empathy for others who have been marginalized or discriminated against since the beginning of time. It is really tough at times to have a normal conversation.
