The original version:

And the British side of the story:

The Road to Charlamette (The Answer to the Battle of New Oreans)--Jimmy Driftwood (1959)

Grandparents of mine were there. My family seems to have been in every war in this country.

I was wondering what was going on with the convoy, looked it up a couple of days ago, very little in the news. Swamp is planning something nefarious.

More appropriate is probably Pancho Villa.

Not only is he Mexican, but he was just a gang. Not “Mexico” invading with intention to fight for some goal, but some guy with lesser intentions, bad as they might’ve been.

Britain we had been at war with, and Brits intended to fight as a nation against a nation.

Honestly these people aren’t intending simply to fight. But they are indeed invaders, as surely as we call out “home invasion”. We don’t like people trying to sneak in our windows or back doors, and this should be the same.

Andrew Jackson, Trump’s hero and mine. He and Polk are the 2 best Presidents.
