DNC Wants To Help You Talk With 'Your Republican Uncle' On Thanksgiving

[red states rule]

I wonder if we will read or hear about any fights that happened at the dinner table :laugh:





The Democratic National Committee is launched a Thanksgiving-themed website Wednesday called YourRepublicanUncle.com that purports to help people deal with "lively discussions with Republican relatives about politics" that occur during the holiday season.

YourRepublicanUncle.com features talking points Democrats can use during hypothetical political conversations with their family members.

"This time of year, the only thing more annoying than holiday traffic is an awkward conversation with family about politics," DNC Digital Director Matt Compton wrote in an email announcing the site. "We designed YourRepublicanUncle.com (http://yourrepublicanuncle.com/) so that it look greats and loads quickly on your phone -- no getting ambushed when you go back for seconds on stuffing."

Seems like the DNC is admitting that a Dem would need help because that old Republican Uncle (read: white male Christian dinosaur) has the better arguments on his side. :laugh:

I had no trouble talking with my Republican relatives on Thanksgiving. All of my husband's family are conservative Republicans.
The way to preserve peace is to never discuss politics at the dinner table. Or elsewhere.
