    I knew it would come to this, but finally had a friend who is a fellow democrat unfriend me on Facebook. It's really telling that two people who largely agree on policies can arrive at that end. I called him out on being exactly the kind of person who he derides on a regular basis (extreme conservatives, people who don't look at facts, etc.) and he's made in the same mold. An ardent, unapologetic fan of Hillary Clinton who can't for the life of him admit that she did a multitude of things unbefitting of someone running for president. Thinks that every single second of the investigations into Benghazi, her emails, and other things are a complete witch hunt. Often says "I look at the bigger picture, not the small things" as his defense as if that's a valid defense of his love with Clinton.

    We got into a heated conversation online yesterday, he pulled the incredibly immature "I'm older than you and don't have time for this bullshit" and I called him on that too, as if his age has any relevance in the matter. I know 20-somethings with more common sense than him, and he's in his 40s. All because he was fuming that the State Department is going to open an investigation into the email situation, he couldn't fathom it, and I pasted the exchange between Trey Gowdy and John Comey in which Comey admitted several things Clinton had been untruthful about. But this guy can't handle it, short-circuits, and starts rambling about Trump and how he has to be stopped.

    It's kind of sad to be honest, but amazing that, like I said, two people who largely agree on most things can't have an honest conversation.
