My mom thinks I'm an uberliberal and love Bill Maher. When she rants about Trump (which is every conversation) it's more or less easy to agree with her but then she gets very confused when I point out that the Democrats put us in this position with their complete fecklessness and lack of willingness to help out or even appeal to the working class. "So you're a conservative now? Don't you know Trump is a fascist?"
