Since Reid spends so little time here, he has lost touch with all that makes the West a great place to live. And because of that failure to understand, he is stepping on his 5th Appendage. (If he can find it with a mirror and a pair of tweezers.)
They thought they had all Americans cowed except for a few. SURPRISE! lol
Westerners, for the most part, are from Pioneer Stock. And if that is a confusing concept for an enemy, then they have already lost the battle AND the war.
We didn’t trek 2,000+ miles (from the east coast) on foot or in wagons to be overcome by some lily-livered newcomer who thinks he can show the world how powerful he is.
The West was won with courage from people who had little else.
I had an ancestor who went west with one of his sons at age 70. The elites have no idea who these people were or how their example stirs their progeny.
Didn’t people from all over the country join them?
I don’t know. I’ve been busy with kids. lol
How’s that going?
Okay. The Jack man has baseball so he’s going home. The girls stay, no school.
