Like many Americans, Carolina Giuliani was paralyzed over the prospect that Donald Trump — the man she blames for ruining her father and damaging her family — could be close to returning to the White House.

“It’s a hard phenomenon to understand. It definitely is,” Carolina Giuliani said. “I view Trump as a disease, and I think it’s really important to remember that with every disease, prevention is a much more effective strategy than treatment. … I thought we had cured ourselves of it the first time, but it doesn’t seem like we have.

“And I think if he becomes the president again, we may have a terminal illness in our country. And that really, really scares me.”

    She’s absolutely correct. I lost my father to Trump about a year ago. It got so bad that I had to block all contact with him. No email, no text, no calls.

      I don’t speak to my mother anymore for the very same reason, but she was in the tank for Trump since day one. She’s always been a hyper conservative cunt, and honestly I jumped at the opportunity to remove her from my life.

        I’m sorry to hear you had to do that. It sucks to lose a parent like this. I’m not happy about my situation. But I don’t need that in my life either.

          I’m sorry that your experience wasn’t as liberating. From a young age I’ve never gotten along with my mother, so when the time came to rip the bandaid off it was more of a relief than anything else.
