Back when America had a set! A GOOD set!

Back when America wasn't being taken apart from within by Marxists. This is all part of the destruction of Constitutional America by Marxists and Islamicists, both represented by the resident of the White Hut.

...Marxists and Islamicists...

...and don’t forget the LGBTxyz community. My guess is that at the end of some coming day, Islamist’s will get shed of all no longer useful “ists”. Even the worst muze can tolerate but so much blasphemy.

Actually, Teddy was a progressive and a participant in the process of unwinding America. In his era, progressives got the income tax, direct election of senators and the right of women to vote, all important to where we are today. When Taft turned out to be conservative instead of a progressive Republican, Teddy formed a third party and ran against him (reminiscent of the nevertrumpers), which gave us Woodrow Wilson and progressive Democrat rule. Teddy's wing lives on in the GOPe.

In his era, you could be progressive and still nationalist. Progressivism eventually led to globalism, but it took time. Roosevelt got the ball rolling.

I used to like Teddy Roosevelt. Then I read more about him. He was certainly a man's man, and had no trouble calling things like they were. But he was a full-on big-government progressive, and started us down this path we're on with progressivism.
