If I was married to someone who equated the holocaust to covid vaccine mandates, there is no way I’d be happy in that marriage. I couldn’t respect a person like that. I wouldn’t be attracted to them. I’d be disgusted.
Kellyanne and George Conway over 20 years
I think the crazy thing would be that you’re busy telling the public what a scumbag your partner is rather than getting on with the divorce
She is an actress (I could easily see jobs drying up if she didn’t distance themselves), they also run various charities. There is a very good reason to distant herself from these comments.
My grandparents were happily married for fifty-some years, but my grandmother was horrified that my grandfather supported the Vietnam War (at which point they were 3 kids and nearly 20 years in).
Her point was that the atrocities were horrible.
His point was that the reasons for going to war were sound, and disagreeing with the manner in which the war was fought is different from disagreeing with whether it should be fought.
They were kind of both right, and they managed to stay married for another 30-some years. And they were one of those adorable couples who were still madly in love even in their 80s.
But I do think there’s some level of difference of opinion where it would be hard to respect the other person.
Depends. If my partner wasn’t okay with gay rights, for example, we’d be done. Hypothetically, if we differed on immigration policy (and neither of us were horrifically one-sided) I wouldn’t care. If they started spouting about Mexico sending drug dealers and rapists, we’d be done. (Or at least, we’d explore whether they need medication for a psychotic break)
It’s the public insanity that some of these people spout (think Kellyanne Conway and her husband) that I’ll never understand.
Well their daughter seems to hate both of them. Claims they are abusive. They probably both suck.
Oh yeah, I think the whole “I’m going to go put you on blast” angle is the worse part of it, but I think it’s possible to be happily married to someone with wackadoodle views.
Huh. Apparently wackadoodle is a respected word by my spell check.
She didn’t seem to mind their celebrity to get on American Idol
She’s a child…
Is it okay that his sister kerry put him on blast? Is this keeping quiet about the person sucking limited to spouses?
What does that have to do with anything? She can’t go on American idol if she hates her parents?
She had her mother walk out with her and lasted a hell of a lot longer than she should have
I don’t think a person has an obligation to keep quiet, I’m saying that if I was married to someone who put ME on blast, I’d be out of that marriage. That’s just me. Obviously they have a different dynamic.
The difference to me is, the views my partner has and the way they treat me are two different things. I don’t expect to agree with my partner on everything (although admittedly there are views that, if my spouse had, I’d leave him over, but those would be extremes and rare and hopefully it wouldn’t take a decade of marriage for me to find them out). But I’d hope that I approached him and those views privately. But, you know, I have a private life, not a public one, and maybe this was the best thing for them for damage control, I dunno.
Siblings, on the other hand…totally different. I’d definitely roast my siblings for their bad takes, no hesitation. I didn’t choose them!
Doesn’t mean she isn’t abused
Ah I misunderstood
There is no way that marriage is a good one
He didn’t have a point other than to invoke hitler for shock value.
what does that mean?
Well, prior to Covid, being anti-vax was mostly a far left thing.
did you miss the instagram post i put in here that she made about her brother?
