Some Thanksgiving menus: Turkey, with a side of impeachment.
. Many families reflect the nation’s divisions, setting up heated holiday debates in households with a taste for politics.
Wright — whose wife, University of Cincinnati psychology professor Farrah Jacquez, is of Mexican descent — will gather with her family and his relatives at his parents’ home in Florence, Kentucky, after hosting two recent Thanksgivings. Triantafilou, who is critical of the Democratic-led impeachment proceedings, said that his family backs Trump for the most part but that more viewpoints have been added as it has grown with new in-laws and friends.
Elaine Swann, a Los Angeles-based etiquette coach, advises hosts to have a plan to deal with polarizing discussions amid “all this talk about impeachment” in the air, along with the aromas of oyster dressing and freshly baked pumpkin pies. Triantafilou, a former judge, said that role often falls to him, although he wouldn’t mind taking a break from politics for the day.
Games can be a good diversion or, Swann suggested, invite people to bring family photos to share that will stir warm memories.
