Many individuals shared personal stories about how political beliefs, particularly in support of Trump, have damaged their relationships with friends and family. A cancer survivor expressed deep disappointment that a loved one voted for Trump despite potential threats to healthcare protections. Others noted that foreign family members, despite living abroad, felt the negative impact of Trump’s policies. Concerns were raised about misinformation spread on social media and its influence on political views, contributing to familial discord as elections approached.
"My father voted for Trump in 2016, even though I made it clear to him that he would try to get rid of Obamacare, which prevented insurance companies from discriminating against me as a recent survivor of stage 3 cancer.

"I'm not even American but Australian, and my mum is English. That's how far this crap reaches. Trump is objectively bad for our native countries, and you'll still find people squawking this crap. How can you be pro-nationalist when it's hurting your own country... I dunno."
