…and of course Ghost is also very “open to new ideas”…
To be fair, up until around 2005 or so, I pretty much believed whatever the media told me about this country. I did wonder about Bush a bit, he talked like a conservative but governed like a lib. But I just wrote it off.
Then obama came. obama was my red pill. The majority of his policy stances seemed to hurt Americans. It didn't make sense. And at the same time, he seemed to go out of his way to help other nations, sometimes our enemies.
Plus, he seemed to have outright distaste for the average American. He seemed to hate cops, he constantly stoked racial division. Everything he did seemed to be to the detriment of his own country. It was almost like he hated America. Add in his 'apology' tour where he seemed to have an almost servitude relationship with our enemies, and it got me thinking.
Then there were the RINOs. Republicans that were campaigning on stopping obama. Who highlighted all the things he was doing that I was already seeing. They said they would stop obama. Then I watched as the pubs took the house. They took the senate.
And nothing changed. No one stopped obama. They said one thing while campaigning, but when it came time to govern, they acted like libs. Just like Bush had done.
But I wasn't ready for Trump. Trump talked like me, he said ALL the right things. He won and first thing he did was tell the republicans it was time to get to work on fulfilling the campaign promises they had ALL run on.
And the republicans turned on him. Immediately.
THAT was when I realized what was REALLY happening in this country.
