  • Young Trump administration staffers are having a hard time dating in Washington - one of the most liberal cities in the country.
  • Even after leaving their administration jobs, former staffers are finding themselves on something of a social blacklist.
  • One match on an online dating app told an administration official, "Thanks but no thanks. Just Googled you and it said you were a mouthpiece for the Trump administration. Go f--- yourself."

Young Trump administration staffers are having a hard time dating in Washington - one of the most liberal cities in the country - according to a new Politico feature.

Both current and former staffers say they're often berated by potential dates online, or simply denied when someone finds out where they work or that they voted for the president.

"You do the small talk thing, and you have a very good conversation, and then they might say, 'You didn't vote for Trump, right?'" one 31-year-old female administration official told Politico. "As soon as I say, 'Of course I did,' it just devolves into all-caps 'HOW COULD YOU BE SUCH A RACIST AND A BIGOT?' And 'You're going to take away your own birth control.'"

In one recent online exchange, a potential date asked her, "Do you rip babies from their mothers and then send them to Mexico?"
