Notice the score given to Warren Harding. In text after text the liberal authors state that he is both ignorant and dumb. Hmmm. I never believed these people anyway.
he should be mocked. It is the only tool we the people have against him, s our “checks and balances” in the media and Congress and the courts let him rule as an autocrat.
Part of the problem may be the message to Congress going from a message from one professional given to a group of professionals to a speech given to a wide audience, to a campaign speech.
