Will Trump and Clinton divide families at Thanksgiving?
NEW YORK — The election is over, so what about all those frayed relationships among loved ones?
Mothers and sons, sisters and brothers, friends unfriended — it's been tough for some on opposing sides who must now figure out the way forward. They wonder what their ties will feel like a month from now. A year. What about the holidays?
Leigh Anne O'Connor in Manhattan already has her answer, and her heart broke.
"My dad just called and said he is not coming for Thanksgiving," she said Thursday. "I cried last night when we hung up."
He supported President-elect Donald Trump, along with one of her sisters and other relatives. She did not.
"He got into a 'discussion' on Facebook with a friend who will be at Thanksgiving and he also read something my oldest daughter wrote against our family members who supported Trump," O'Connor explained. "My mom was always liberal. She died 12 years ago. Things would be different if she was still alive."
