Over 9.9 Million Are Floored By This Tweet From A MAGA Voter Who Says Her Son Won’t Talk To Her Anymore

Particularly in his second term, it seems like Donald Trump supporters are experiencing more and more familial estrangement as their sisters, brothers, children, cousins, and parents separate themselves from MAGA and the group’s beliefs.

It’s not particularly surprising, as Trump’s policies and behavior are nearly synonymous with division.

After all, the 79-year-old has repeatedly bragged about “killing” Roe v. Wadeemboldened and uplifted white supremacist groups, spewed racism and misogyny, fostered an ever-growing connection to Project 2025, allegedly praised Adolf Hitler, referred to fallen American soldiers as “losers,” and he has been found liable for sexual abuse. (And this was all BEFORE his second term began just a few short months ago — I didn’t even mention Wikipedia creating an entire 2025 Stock Market Crash page amid Trump’s tariff war.)

Regardless of how obvious it may or may not seem that friends and family of MAGA supporters may want some distance, some are still surprised — and that includes this X poster:

A tweet by Shannon Hill expressing sadness about her son's lack of contact due to differing political views following their vote in the 2024 election

Yes, this woman, who describes herself as a “True Patriot” with “Pronouns F/U,” wrote on X: “Today my oldest son turns 36. I sent him a gift, left him a voicemail and texted him. But I won’t be hearing back from him – not even an acknowledgment that he received his present. Why? Because he hasn’t spoken to my husband or I in seven months because we voted for Trump.”

“I miss him and hope that someday he will come around and realize the damage he is doing to our family by acting this way. My breaking heart is a continual reminder.”

“I know many of you have similar stories and I pray that your family members come around as well. I’m not asking him to change his politics, but you can’t let it come between family.”

The post, which has been viewed over 10 million times, has over 15,000 comments and even more impressions.

Some commenters shared similar experiences:

“My husband and I were disowned by our 33 year old son on January 21st,” this person wrote. “Haven’t heard from him since then. My birthday and Mother’s Day nothing. Our lives go on.”

“Politics should stop at the family front door,” another added.

Others struggled to find sympathy for the original poster or other outcasted parents.

Tweet by AlphaVied: "Entire thread of parents realizing that actions of consequences."

“MAGA mom is SHOCKED her child doesn’t want to associate with hate-filled, racist, bigoted & authoritarian-like movements. She is SHOCKED,” someone said.

“‘we are horrible people and now my kids won’t talk to us,'” another mocked.

And outside of the left versus right, a middle group formed with those who questioned why the original poster would send their child a gift despite them wanting to remain estranged, and then seemingly complain about the gift not being appreciated, regardless. “He is no contact. With someone who contacted him 3 ways. But she’s the victim?” several posed.
