I did some of that scary age math on my bday yesterday. What was going on 52 years before I was born? The Republicans lost 77 House seats and 6 senate seats, but they still retained power of note.

And literal fascism was underway as the Ottoman Empire crumbled.

There was a sweet spot before social media took over when I was able to use my phone (2005 blackberry was my first) to tether internet and do real work from wherever but before everyone was working from home and posting bullshite everywhere about everything. I had a phone camera on a flip phone just before that.
Digital camera. Communicate and work mobile. But little of today’s BS (I had to come on here for that haha)

Yep. We should consider the UK (among other European non-nations) enemies until this literal fascism ends.

Dude, I was about to search for a similar ad I saw on FB the other day from an actual “legit” (as far as it goes) Romanist site. It stopped barely short of a BOGO sale for souls.

Is there any chance that sentiment is wrong and a good majority of these people just want America to be great but think the path to greatness is different than the path you believe in?

Some? Sure

Majority 30 years ago? Maybe.

Majority now? Hell no. Unless you have a diametrically different definition of “greatness” than the commonly used definition of the past few centuries.

What if maybe just maybe it had little to nothing to do with Trump but it was because Tucker is either an unhinged moonbat or a fraud. Both perhaps.
That doesn’t mean he never says true things.

How is this a political problem?

Because politicians are responsible for a lot of the bullshite involved with aging and dying. Dems are always threatening to get rid of stepped-up basis at death. And people such as myself have been paying FICA for many decades. A shite ton of money that would be a shite ton more if we’d been allowed to invest it ourselves. And getting hosed by the ACA debacle and otherwise broken “insurance” system.
Death tax.
Widespread fraud: the area a legitimate government focuses on punishing and preventing.
