He should have broke up with her if she didn't vote for Trump. :)
In all seriousness though, certain political differences can cause problems in a relationship, especially once people have kids. It just depends on which things they disagree on.
I can stay friends with someone that has many different political views, but not be in a LTR with someone with too many different views/beliefs. That is actually one of the reasons why I can be friends with a very attractive girl and never be more than friends, is if some of the views are too different.
I get what you're saying but I believe that you can teach kids different sides of the political views and let them make their own choices when they get older. I still don't think a difference of opinion is reason to break up with someone. That's foolishness. There are so many worst reasons to break up with someone
By reading opinions on here and learning she was Mexican, then I think she is one of the people that confuse the deportation of illegals with being racist against Mexicans, which it isn't.
I was originally thinking of different political opinions like the use of pot, or gay marriage. Those differences in beliefs could really cause problems when having kids. If one parent is very straight edge and doesn't even drink alcohol and is a devout Christian, and the other is fine with their kid being gay and smoking dope, I couldn't see that working out.

Funny and stupid.
It's very stupid. Breaking up with someone who has a different opinion... like wow
I'm guessing she did not see this as a simple "difference of opinion."
A difference of opinion is like, "I like horror movies and it's okay that you don't." This is kind of more like "You're a Hispanic woman and I want our country's leader to be a man who both shows blatant racism against Mexicans and also normalizes sexual assault. So it's okay with me that you don't feel safe anymore."
How is he racist against Mexicans.
Lmao guess he won't be grabbing anyone by the pussy 😂😂
Lmao don't make me laugh this is serious shit lol
Hahaha just laugh... you know you want to 😊. That's funny though. I'm guessing she's Mexican.
Actually yeah she is lol
Seriously tho do you think that was reason enough to break up with him?
Meh if he wasn't hot... yeah.
I think it's stupid lol
I hate how people can't have a difference of opinion without being butthurt
Hahaha they can have a different opinion but they have to keep it to themselves 😂
Thomas Jefferson was obviously a logical man.
I've never broke off a friendship or relationship because of a difference of opinion either.

If she broke up with him because of such a small thing that wouldn't actually affect their relationship directly, then he's better off without her.
I agree but it's just a shame
Why do people think this is weird? Aren't we supposed to date people who share our values and our open to our beliefs (they're a huge part of our personalities)? Yes there has to be some wiggle room, like between a Clinton supporter and a Sanders supporter, or even across the aisle between a Clinton supporter and a Kasich or Stein supporter, but if he voted Trump and she voted Clinton that can signal a huge difference in values and beliefs.
People that are super into politics are a special kind of stupid.
I agree 100% you might get mho honestly.
+1
She was looking for an excuse... this isn't high standards but something else entirely different and weird.
If this hasn't happened, I am sure in future he'd have done something else equally inconsequential and she'd have dumped him for that instead.
That's messed up I've heard of a couple that was disagreeing and voting for the other but never breaking up
Yeah she literally broke up with him because he wouldn't join her in a protest and wouldn't agree with her. Wtf.
Don't know why some people are so Protestant this time, he already won , it won't matter now
The way I see it; people who are really into politics are stupid. That girl probably felt that it would not work out between them. Though think about it; Trump has been branded "racist, sexist and homophobic" and that is what scares people. Honestly I would not date someone who was really into politics especially if it was borderline dictating what I could and could not do. For example "abortion and birth control is wrong" yeah no. Take your 1950s mindset elsewhere, preferably to another planet.
Your friend should find a new girlfriend that doesn't care whom he voted for and what his political views are or that she is also a Trump supporter.
He's been with her for 2 years tho. They were talking about marriage. Smh
Sounds like he dodged a bullet. If she makes a big deal out of that, what else could she have made a big deal out of? At least they ended it before they got married.
Makes perfect sense to me. To her, this probably revealed an underlying deep incompatibility. I would break up with someone if they turned religious or turned out to be racist or homophobic.
he's been liberated is all I'm saying. no one needs to be with someone who doesn't respect their political opinion.
I agree 100%
Differently Political views are huge for some people. She obviously felt that it would have never worked out.
It's so dumb to end a relationship because of a difference in opinion on what should be done about Iraq like cmon!
She obviously didn't think it could have worked out. I guess her thought was if they differ here then they probably have different ideology altogether that would make raising a family harder, just couldn't see it working out and just didn't see the point of staying with someone that she couldn't see as "the one". I mean why waste either of their time if it's not going to work out in the long term anyway?
exactly
That's a really negative outlook on life in general. If someone isn't like you or think like you, you basically write them off as being unsuitable. Cmon.
And that's fine just realize that things like Politics an Religions are important to some people and they like to be with someone who shares at least their core values with them. The rate of Divorce of people with different ideologies is higher than not & tend to cause problems when it comes to what to teach and how to discipline kids. It's fine that you don't think it should be an issue but for many it is and it's good when people are self aware and know what will and will not work for them.
Like he even had a chance to begin with - guess he didn't realize they always win
well first of all she never truly loved him secondly she lacks in knowledge of social freedom n each individual human rights
i mean of god that girl must b psychopath... lol
Pathetic of her. He doesn't need a woman who is that shallow.
I think she did the right thing.
How do you figure?
I know right? He deserved someone better than her.
Well he should count his lucky stars as the like most hillary supporters has emotional problems, she will likely accuse him of rape or domestic abuse.
I support her decision
How do you figure?
Good riddance I'd say :P
Ditch the bitch... he's way better off without her
Typical left wing retard
Lol no wonder why I have an interest in you lol
