    They weren’t even really that before the teabaggers came along. The “maga” thing is just recycled teabagger and teabagger was recycled hatriots of the 90s and the hatriots were recycling the Bircher bullshit and so on.

    Just like how they talk about “wokeness” - it’s the same tired stuff they said about “political correctness” in the 90s/00s.

    These people have been polishing the same turd for decades.

      Yeah, exactly right. It’s frustrating to see so many liberals act like Trump was the start of Republicans being awful

        Unfortunately, so much of this mythology is sustained by the bothsiderist “moderates” and the “liberal media”. They want a horse race and they want those eyeballs and clicks, even if literal fascists are put into the WH. They are only eyeing the next quarter’s profits.
