The Challenge of Dating in DC for Trump supporters

"Faced with open antagonism, Trump’s millennials over the past year and a half have quietly settled on the margins: a stretch of Washington that spans from the Wharf—a shiny new development three blocks south of the National Mall—southeast along the Waterfront and into Navy Yard, on the banks of the Anacostia River. It’s a string of neighborhoods that peer out over the water, separated from most of the city by an interstate, and facing away from official Washington. It’s a bubble within the Washington bubble: Here, young Trump staffers mix largely with each other and enjoy the view from their rooftop pools, where they can feel far away from the District’s locals and the rest of its political class.
It’s not all a tale of discomfort. Many shrug off the drawbacks by pointing out that at least they’re not in New York or back on their college campuses, where their politics were even less welcome. And they’re learning one lesson that every new wave of operators learns: In Washington—even in Trump’s Washington—as long as you have power, you can manage to feel popular somewhere."

Trump and the rest of the “deplorables” have been correctly identified as the enemy. There are currently too many of us to engage in open warfare, but in the end it would be their goal to subjugate us or eliminate us
I thought trump could slow things down , as he is doing. I never thought he could actually reverse the slide to the left in 4 years. The swamp is too deep and wide.
I've seemed to notice there are more people, both known and unknown, joining into the "discussion". Both sides seem to be doubling down on their beliefs. If it continues, I can actually see a lot of people getting hurt. the responsibility for that in my mind will be Maxine Waters who was only quietly inspired by Obama. I"ll be long gone before we see the total impact his presidency has put on this country. Trump won't be able to undo all of it, he won't even realize all of it.
A harder problem is that once I do find a date who is pro-Trump, where do I take her? Not many places in DC.
In a way, its good that she is vocal about all this. It will cost the democrats in the fall, as the hatred and vitriol isnt going to play well in the elections
I would like if all hillary supporters wore armbands too, so I know in advance who to ignore
The more of this nastiness towards Trump, the better it is for the country. It exposes the left. In the quietude of the voting booth, people can feel this nastiness and distrust it, like happened with Hillary
So this is likely a planned event intended to distract Huckabee from her tasks in the administration. This will win Huckabee (and Trump) more friends and lose none.
