We call them libtards because they are stupid. Think about it. Their plan to win a multigenerational culture war is to not have children. The only reason they perform so well is our “leadership” is dumber than they are.

The Globalists see nationalism and patriotism as Treason. They are outraged that Trump loves America.

Anyone that makes conservatism sensible and popular is going to be hated by the left.

LOL!!!

So absurd that anyone who spends his whole career trying to convince people that “both sides are to blame” for everything could simultaneously try to brand himself a “Culture Warrior”.
