I am certainly not the only one in this sinking ship.

Context: I work in politics, in fact I am so politically driven I started obtaining a law degree after RoevWade was overturned. Currently, I work for a the very first woman to be an elected minority leader for the House of Representatives in the history of my state. I am, and always have been extremely politically motivated.

The past 6 months I have been working for the Lt. Governor of my state getting people registered to vote- no matter who they vote for.

Every time I asked my partner leading up to the election if he was voting he said no, but day of, he waited in line for 3 hours and voted for Trump- and then lied to me about it. ( I saw the “I voted”sticker). I didn’t even bother him about it.

I was watching the Nick Fuentes video lastnight and he complained. He wasn’t bothered. His lack of disgust enraged me.

I asked him truthfully why he voted for trump ( knowing he has very little political knowledge) and he said it was because he did Theo Von, and Joe Rogan, and because of “migration” (I never corrected him) and lastly because he disagrees children should be allowed sex changes at school”

I SHIT YOU NOT. He fell for the bullshit and I haven’t looked at him without resentment since.

Also, I read a text from his step dad, it was from the morning of Nov 5, it makes my stomach turn. It reads “Go vote that *racial slur* B**** out” - I am simultaneously trying to cope/ destroy Step dad’s existence after seeing that.

We have been together so many years, and he has always seemed supportive of my political views while not talking politics at home and I’m blindsided here.

Am I insane for walking away. Am I insane for even questioning it?

EDIT: To clear a few things up

- I work in a Non-partisan job, meaning I have to remain in the middle regardless of my ideology. This has built skills most people don’t have when it comes to politics. I am very capable of having open discussions of things we do not align with. I always encourage education, if there’s something I believe in, I love being educated about the devils advocate- I do not entertain belittling, or propaganda based opinions, that’s why we don’t a lot of politics. He’s uneducated, and has always said he didn’t want to be more educated about the matter. Also I work in politics- I don’t need to chat about it at home every night too.

-I did not go through his phone, he asked me to see who texted him while he was driving.

- I encouraged him to vote- I just didn’t think he actually would. The man bitches about being in a grocery store checkout line, I didn’t expect that he would. Regardless, I think no matter who you vote you, it’s important to vote. Just be educated walking into the polls.Do not vote without doing proper non biased research prior. It’s damaging.

EDIT: Might be important to add that we are both 26 M&F

When we were 18 I became pregnant, and had early on, several complications. We had to choose a D&C for my health, it was heartbreaking . I found out last year I have Elhers Danlose Syndrome, meaning the chance of conceiving are slim, and making it to term is even slimmer. I have struggled with that.

He still voted for Trump.

And yeah... You can't take him on your career journey. You'd lose all respect for yourself as you meet men and women who are actually politically literate and support democracy.

I would break up with him because he is stupid and I would tell him it was because he was stupid. Kids cannot even get a ibuprofen at school without jumping through tons of hoops. They cannot even get TAMPONS at school without people flipping their shit.

He's stupid.

The Left built this political movement, a movement that seems based on histrionic women who will believe anything they're told - what happens to them now?
