The most obnoxious Trumpster is sitting too close to me at the bar.

What a fucking drag.

I come to my favorite hangout, the local Greek restaurant, get set up at a table in the tiny, cozy little bar, and some loud mouthed obnoxious guy blasts in ruining my quiet little hideaway.

Like me, he knows the staff, and he keeps them listening to his gravelly monologues.

I'm just trying to have a quiet dinner and a drink.

He just keeps bloviating, and I keep shaking my head, hoping he would leave. He outed himself, saying he gave a friend a MAGA hat. The woman behind the bar, who obviously knows this hammerhead well, said "I'm gonna have to fight you on that one."

"Why? HE'S A GREAT PRESIDENT!"

She found something else to do in a hurry, and he finally placed a to-go order.

He's gone. Ruined an hour of my life...

From where he was seated, he could see it if he wanted to.

I suppose I should be grateful that he didn't start any real trouble.

That was a mistake.

Obviously, he can't think.

I think you handled yourself like an adult, Aristus. For that I'm giving you one of my remaining hearts!

Or the hardware store, or the gym, or anywhere else for that matter.

12. Me too. Live in a very red part of Florida. Elections are generally 60% Rep, 35% Dem.

But rarely do I hear any political talk. We have a very active Democratic Women's club. I go to some of their luncheons. About the only time I ever hear any political talk.

No encounters with foaming at the mouth MAGAts...generally my interactions with folks around here are pleasant and friendly.

"Has Trump got to 17,000 lies yet" I would ask him. Ignore his response then ask "What's it like being in an evil cult".

"Do they make you believe all Trump's lies in your cult".

"You know cults never end well right".

"Why do we have a trillion dollar deficit if the economy is doing so great". Thats a good one.

I got more.
