They can't.
I tried to make a comment about this in a different thread. Only you can control how you wanna spend your energy every day. Stop giving it to being angry at them all day. Unless there is something you can do to take actual action its just ruining your day with no real change taking place.
My father has requested that the family only talk to him about politics if there is something he can do. A petition to sign. A protest to mount. Something. Otherwise he doesn't want to hear what Trump and his lackey's are up to because he knows he can't do anything about it and letting it ruin his daily mental health does him no good.
Your father sounds incredibly based.
He's got his moments. I'm kinda fond of him.
Is your dad in his 40s? He sounds like the kind of guy I'd want to talk sports to.
You know....assuming your dad is a Cleveland sports fan.
Unfortunately he's in his 60s and he thinks sports are "stupid".
Still love him though.
