Everything you said is spot on, and it’s sad. The left wants to destroy everything that is American. Wonder when they will go after apple pie? Oh wait, it has too many calories.
I am a fourth generation Cardinals fan. My family is all from southern Illinois originally. I still remember my grandfather listening to the games on his radio.
Then you really know how deep the tradition goes, and how much it hurts to see this. What is worse is to know our “leaders” and people in positions of public trust are kowtowing to a radical political party, and not defending the American way. WW2 generation would be appalled to see this happening.
