Brad, I feel for you. And kudos for doing the right (and totally thankless) thing. I am right behind you with my 85 year-old mother, also a Delusional Democrat. You need to address your mom as you would any non-logical/non-reasonable person. Don't argue, don't buy into the emotional turmoil. Simply say 'I love you, mom' and turn away. She'll lose interest in fighting if there's nobody to fight with. In my experience with my own fiercely liberal family members, they tend to think emotionally and are not accepting or tolerable of opposing opinions. Therefore, they tend to want to fight when presented with realities. Again, my heart goes out here, as this is a very tough situation.
