My husband and I bought our granddaughter Eloise a wedding gift from her registry, but she accused us of being cheap. She expected the $40,000 cash gift we give our grandkids before their weddings. Upset, she threatened to cut us off.
“We buy a small gift from the registry and give a check for $40,000 the day before the wedding,” I explained. This time, we sent an air fryer, the cheapest item on her list. Eloise called, livid: “An air fryer? That’s the cheapest thing you could find?”
I told her, “Yes, we’re cheap, old, and useless. The only thing you didn’t know is that the day before the wedding, we were going to gift you a check for $40,000.”
Eloise’s reaction made us reconsider giving the cash. Later, she found out about our tradition and accused us of discrimination. “Why didn’t I get anything?”
“We felt after your reaction, it wasn’t right to go ahead with the gift,” I said. Eloise, now boycotting Christmas, refuses to understand our perspective. Despite this, our door and hearts remain open to her.

As the 2024 election looms closer, former President Donald Trump appears to have soIidified his position as the frontrunner on the Republican side of the contest.
Despite ongoing efforts from the left, Trump’s popularity and poll numbers have surged, especially among minorities, posing a significant challenge for Democrats.
Incumbent President Joe Biden faces competition from third-party candidate Robert Kennedy Jr., and there are widespread rumors about potential repIacements for Biden on the Democratic ticket. Concerns about Biden’s age and declining mental state persist, coupled with a lack of strong contenders within the Democratic Party.
Speculation has swirled around California Governor Gavin Newsom and Vice President Kamala Harris as potential candidates, although both are perceived as underperforming. Unless an unexpected bid emerges from figures like Michelle Obama, the Democratic Party faces limited options.
This sets the stage for a probable showdown between Biden and Trump in 2024. Anticipating a worst-case scenario for Democrats, with Trump securing another term, some Hollywood celebrities have already begun discussing the possibiIity of leaving the country.
Notably, in 2016, several Hollywood liberals vowed to leave the country if Trump won, but none followed through. Nevertheless, similar threats have resurfaced for the 2024 election.
Barbara Streisand recently reiterated her intention to leave the country if Trump were to win again. During an interview promoting her autobiography, Streisand stated, ‘I will move. I can’t live in this country if he became president.’ However, whether such promises will materiaIize remains to be seen.”
