Oh man, I'm sorry to have dug deeper on this. Thanks for having the courtesy to respond any way. He sounds absolutely gone. It sounds like he needs to completely lose media access for an insanely long time.The issue is more that I can't talk to him about anything without it coming back to politics. Believe me, I've tried to get through to him, it's no use.
Just took him to pickup his jeep from the repair shop, hit my wiper fluid to clear the frost off the window and that turned into a political rant against California and some law they have about pre-mixed negative degree wiper fluid.
The man has internalized this shit so much that I honestly hate talking to him because I can't have a conversation with him about anything without it turning into a political rant. It's turned him into a huge asshole.
