“red diaper baby”....I hope this writer gives Savage credit for that term cause that’s where it came from. Savage has been saying this about liberals for years and years. BO is just the culmination of the RDDB (red diaper doper baby) - the direct lineage of marxists pretending to be moderate in order to grab power.

Mike Savage didn’t coin the term “red diaper baby.” It’s been around for decades. Tom Wolfe mentioned the term in “Radical Chic...”(published in 1970).

Michael Savage did not invent the term “red diaper baby”.

It has been a commonly used term of self description of those who grew up in the 30’s,40’s, and 50’s, children of Communists and fellow travelers.

BTW the term never applies to liberals. It applies to hard core leftists who grew up in Communist and sympathizer families. Surrounded by birth... from whence comes the term “red diaper”, not from Savage.
