“but the NY times thinks this is the 1950s?”
The ploy is to try and get religious Republicans to not vote for Trump even if they won’t vote Kamala. They do it because it does work...at least in the past it has.
One thing is correct, neither Trump nor Kamala would have made it this far in a presidential election back in those days.
If not voting for The Donald would restore those days it would be a snap but Trump is the “best of the worst”, morally. He at least is an American First candidate and keeps his word to us.
And everyone with their eyes open can see what the country is like under another four years of a Kamala presidency.
