She can’t understand why I support Trump. She said I’m not poor, stupid or a hillbilly and she didn’t raise me to be a racist. And she gets enraged when I try to explain my reasons to her and starts yelling or hangs up the phone. Hopefully we don’t have to discuss politics 🙏

Please go have dinner with your mother and do your best to keep politics out of it. Don't lose any more time with her than you already have. I lost my mother when I was 15, and I would give anything to have just another hour with her.
Please don't listen to the people trying to get you to confront her or demand she apologize or whatever.
Just enjoy the day with her. Try to remember what you used to discuss with her before politics took over everyone's lives. I'm sure you're an interesting person that can come up with something non-political to talk about.
Good luck.
This. Some people don't even have the luxury to complain about their parents and wish they had parents.
Just have a nice dinner and love and cherish mom as you always had since you were a kid. Just forget about politics and all that crap. Time is precious and short.
And if she brings up politics, just smile and listen quietly and keep your mouth filled with food. Kiss and hug her, let her feel your warmth and sincere love and gratitude for bringing you into this world. Hey, she did something right by giving birth to a patriot =)
