*** “Republicans see a world changing around them uncomfortably fast, and they want it to slow down, maybe even take a step backward. But if you are a person of color, a woman who values gender equality or an L.G.B.T. person, would you want to go back to 1963? I doubt it.”***

Not one person I know wants to go back to 1963. Not one.

We were making great strides in race relations by the 80’s, 90’s, and so forth. Somehow electing a black man to the presidency is where it all started going astray.

Obama was the one to begin to fundamentally transform our country, and it wasn’t from his half black African side, it was from his white Marxist mother’s side. Marxism is the problem here, and that’s what conservatives are upset about.

Donald Trump showed what a lie we all had in our government and the deep state. It was very Marxist.

We would like to get Marxism out of our government, and Mitch McConnell has been only too happy to let it grow.

Donald Trump was getting things moving. We have too many regulations that constrain productivity.

The anti-Trumpers are the problem. I don’t hate them, but I’d like for them to give Trump a chance. They never gave him a fair shake while he was in the presidency, and all because they think Hillary was supposed to win in 2016.

In 1963, we had money based on silver and (sort of) on gold.

We did not have affirmative action; racist laws were largely limited to several States.

We did not have the Gun Control Act or the Hughes Amendment.

The welfare state was much smaller.

We did not have the EPA.

Rates of drug addiction, VD, divorce, out-of-wedlock birth, fatherlessness, and abortion were all significantly lower.

Sodomy was illegal in most states. "Gay marriage" was an absurdity. Genital mutilation of children was not merely illegal but unthinkable.

The US murder rate was at a historic low.

We did not have a "war on drugs".

Don't accept the bad guys' premises.
