...in the workplace. I am not a political person. I believe, for me, I should listen to each candidate and make a decision based on my own conscious.
I have a co-worker that is just shy of 60, a staunch Republican and gets moist as a bunt cake talking about Donald J Trump. It's fine until she drags me into it, that's when I have a problem. She asks me loaded, leading and racist questions in the hopes I will drink the kool-aid and join her.
I have tried to shut her down by calling him racist and saying that even Anne Frank's sister says he reminds her of Adolph Hitler. Shutting her down is the goal but it only seems to make her foam at the mouth even more. She's convinced Pres. Obama is the anti-christ and Hillary is his lap dog. She has openly said that Bernie is a "foolish old Jew" and how'd that Cruz guy get over the wall anyway.
There's an obvious cure: HR. I could get them to shut her down quick but it would set my relationship with her on fire. I have to spend 40 hours a week with this broad, we have to get along. Don't get me wrong, I think she's a nice person but the politics at work have got to stop.
Any suggestions ?
Frustrated.
