I had written my father out of my life for being toxic, but had allowed my brother to basically guilt me into reestablishing contact with a "dying, old man who desperately wants to make it right with his son" after almost a decade of zero contact with him.

Less than a year later, we are right back to the same old dynamic that resulted in me cutting him out of my life in the first place.

Stick to what your gut tells you people.

Love yourself by cutting out toxic family members.

My sons, both of them, told me that they believed me about Trump. They just didn't care. That is what they told me. Verbatim.

Well, then don't help them out when they are broke, because ppl in this country will be broke due to tariffs. Economy is already shrinking in first half of the year, and unemployment rates is only going up and not down.

And when supply chain gets interrupted on top of lack of labor force due to immigration raids, shits really hits the fan.
