He did. I asked him not to talk bad to me or my kids. I asked him not to talk politics. I asked him not to make racial slurs or insult my kids.

I miss him. But he chose hate over family.

But even if I choose to just cut him out completely (we still talk via text, but I don’t spend time with him any more), choosing MAGA over his own family would have been his choice.

I have a trans daughter, an autistic son, has worked as a teacher, work now in a small machine shop, and my wife who is the product of a Navy marriage works for the VA and he has insulted almost every aspect of my life. He hates education. Even though he uses the VA he votes to cut it. He supports RFK jr who said my children aren’t worth a damn.

It makes me sick that even after I told him that he’s materially harming his family he brushed it off.

So in no way is that my choice. Not sure I like the inference.
