He voted for Trump — she voted for dump.
Deborah didn’t want to break up with her boyfriend of three years, Nick — and the single mom of two tried as hard as she could to ignore her paramour’s politics.
But three days after President Donald Trump was sworn in for his second term in January, the brunette decided she couldn’t take it anymore. She was swearing off right-skewing men — statistics show 55% of dudes secured the win for the 78-year-old mogul — starting with her now-ex.
“We reached a point where there was not a single thing happening, politically, that we could agree on,” Deborah, 41, a consultant and podcaster from Ohio, told The Post.
She asked to not disclose her last name nor Nick’s full name for privacy.
“I couldn’t even pass the salt without thinking, ‘You voted for [that man]?,’” continued the self-described “independent voter.” She called it quits with Nick on Jan. 23.
“I just felt like I couldn’t live in an argument for the rest of my life,” Deborah groaned.
Her hard “No” echoed the one handed down by “Love is Blind” star Sara Carton, 29, to now-ex, Ben Mezzenga, 28, at the altar.
Romance blossomed between the ill-fated fiancés during season eight of the hit Netflix series, which showed the millennial Minnesotans meeting, matching and agreeing to get married — sight unseen.
Wide-eyed reality TV junkies watched as the twosome tackled the highs and lows of love, a joint effort that led them down the aisle on episode 13, which aired Friday.
But Carton’s nagging concerns that her would-be groom didn’t share her pro-Black Lives Matter, gay marriage and vaccine convictions ultimately fueled their wedding day breakup.
Similar political differences, too, severed the seemingly unshakable bond between her star-crossed cast mates, exes Virginia Miller, 33, and Devin Miller, 28.
“Sometimes I did wonder if it was surface, fun, carefree love that we had,” said Carton, still all dressed in white, moments after jilting Mezzenga.
The blonde — an oncology nurse, whose social media only sparsely reflects her purportedly strong support of BLM and LGBTQ+ equality — went on to say that she, “always wanted a partner to be on the same wavelength” as her.
Carton was not immediately available to provide The Post with a comment.
Virtual critics, however, immediately voiced their outrage over the siren’s sociopolitical proclivities, labeling her “annoying” and “fake woke.”
“If Sara [was] ACTUALLY attracted to Ben, none of these reasons listed would have mattered,” tweeted an X user, in part. “Stay away from women like this!.”
And women (and men) like Deborah and Carton — daters who hope to say “I Do” to someone on the same political page — are taking up quite a bit of space in today’s dating pool.
In fact, a recent Oddspedia survey of 5,000 singles from both sides of the aisle revealed that two-thirds of Americans “believe political compatibility is crucial” in romantic relationships.
Researchers also found that over half of the study participants were “unwilling to pursue a relationship with someone who has significantly different political views.”
One in six respondents have ended, or considered ending, a relationship due to political incompatibility, per the poll.
Deborah told The Post that her decision to dump Nick wasn’t easy — just necessary.
“I felt embarrassed,“ she confessed, noting that his opinions on women’s rights, the economy and border control didn’t align with her beliefs.
“I didn’t want be the person that was so stuck in her ways that I couldn’t make it work with someone who has a different viewpoint than me,” she said.
“But his views started to feel very misogynistic,” Deborah said. “I didn’t know if he actually valued me as a woman.”
And when it came to speeding up the inevitable, Deborah says she simply beat Nick to the punch.
“He would have broken up with me eventually,” she giggled. “I was becoming insufferable to him as well.”
It was a parting of ways that both Deborah and Nick’s loved one saw coming from a mile away once the nationwide flames of political hell began heating up last fall.
“Everybody was supportive of my decision,” said Deborah of her “very conservative” circle. “My family felt that we got along, but also agreed that our different ideologies would be a problem.”
“After the election,” she added, “we took a short break and I know that during that time his friends [reminded] him that I was very liberal.”
Now, nearly two months after their split, the singleton is in no rush for a new romance.
She does, however, have a clear idea of the type of guy who’ll catch her eye in the future.
“When I am ready to get back out there again, I need a feminist, man,” Deborah insisted. “I know they’re out there.”
