It's not *that* cold yet....

Maybe move the kids to the main table...

Warn everyone ahead of time that anyone over the age of 10 who starts getting too loud or excited can take their plates and sit at the card table until they settle down.
And if during the meal, anyone wants to change seats and talk about planning next year's gardening, or a Holiday recipe, or planning to adopt or foster a shelter rescue with Grandma, or talk Dr. Who, the MCU/DCU and Anime with Uncle Albert can do so.

Doesn't matter where you end up sitting, y'all will get pumpkin or apple pie afterwards, and home made Carmel kettle popcorn in brown paper bags to either sit and watch "the game" or go out walking to the nearest park with. And hot tea or cocoa afterwards

Of course, I've never hosted or been to a T-Day with authoritarian extremists like John Birchers or MAGA before, so I'm not sure how the kitchen table time out works in those situations.

Then put them on the porch and hand them leftovers through a window

Throw the MAGAts out.

If you’ve been invited, shun the MAGAt host and you and your fellow progressives find a nice Chinese restaurant and chow down.

My Nixon-loving grandmother was more than bearable back in the day … but political
comity at the holiday table in today’s world is a nonstarter if the objectively deranged — i.e. anyone who still supports this madman — are invited, show up, and try to sell me on the snake oil.

…at their own homes.

Done and dusted.

We have one in town here. It was granted a liquor license. I expect big things from that unwise city decision, but what the hell, might be interesting

When Progressives are done eating, they leave the home and go to an unnamed bar. Trumpers feed on the leftovers.

told the history behind the paperclip that was attached to his shirt at the dinner table. The grandkids asked him why he was wearing a paperclip. That brought up even more interesting conversations.

Serve them fast food, the way Trump does in the White House.

The good people should be seated indoors, being served a lovely traditional Thanksgiving dinner.

EAT in there vehicle.

As for where the trumpers sit---it's OK if I don't give a fuck, isn't it?

Would be nice if there was a warm fire for the Progressives to sit by also.
