This was why Nikki Haley said she was voting for Trump. Read just how wrong she gets it "her priorities are supporting a president who would back America’s allies and hold its enemies accountable, who would secure the border, support “capitalism and freedom,” and who would lower the national debt.

Trump never intended to "really" run for President. Cohen says it was a publicity stunt that took off by accident in 2016. Russia didn't know he'd win, but it's plausible that they ransacked his past and found something to hold against him afterwards. They're getting serious mileage from him.

The Dems had their share of those types in the past. The Dixiecrats started trickling into the GOP starting around 1965. They were steadily streaming into the GOP by the 70s and 80s. The floodgates opened in 2016, and the rest came in under Trump.

The backwards flag on the sleeve is spot on. Dead giveaway that the wearer is a world-class pussy that thinks he's John Rambo.

Isn't he the little roach that hid in the aisles on January 6th?

As a resident of the rural South, can confirm. I knew back in the 80s that some form of what we now call MAGA would eventually happen. I vividly recall looking around back in high school and thinking "when it's my generation's time to be in charge, we're screwed." Blown educations were the norm.

Dole told the racists to "hit the exits" in his acceptance speech. McCain shut down a woman slandering Obama. Romney was just a decent guy. But Trump? He dog-whistled every racist into the party like a master. He embraced and fostered existing nativism, hate, and populism and was rewarded for it.

Bork was the doppelganger of Robert Plant, the lead singer of Led Zeppelin. What say you now, Tom?

So true. The remnant of the Dixiecrats are 100% MAGA. As someone who grew up around those types, trust me when I tell you that they are so full of hate that they couldn't wait for a roach like Trump to emerge into politics. They haven't evolved a single inch.

I learned about that sad move a couple of years ago. About the same time, I heard the recording of Reagan being ultra racist with Nixon. Both things broke my heart. I was a kid in the 80s, and respected how RR conducted himself in public.

Bork wrote a book called "Slouching Towards Gomorrah" in which he essentially got on a high horse about the decline of America because "sin" and "leftists." GUARANTEE if he was still here he'd be pure MAGA, and like Clarence Thomas, embrace the fascist insurrectionist who was besties with Epstein.
