    He doesn’t give a shit about the mass starvation, shantytowns, global economic depression, and rise of Nazism into the largest war in human history that left hundreds of millions dead. No, he’s worried because his party wasn’t in power.

    Fuck yourself with the largest, sharpest cactus that exists on the planet, you slimy, snivelling pathetic excuse for a fucking human, Rand Paul.

      I’m like, wait, what happened in the 1930s that meant the wipeout of the republicans and what happened in the next 60 years?

      Oh yes, an overinflated market crashed during the republican presidency, the burst ignited by the proposal of a tariff increase law, made to shield American industries and that was actually signed into law and significantly worsened the great depression. This pretty much caused the rise of Nazism in Germany and WW2

      What happened then in the next 60 years? Oh yeah, the US won the war and became the biggest world superpower, the economy boomed and you had pretty much the most prosperous time in America’s history.

      Maaaaybe a republican wipeout isn’t that bad now, is it?

      He doesn’t have a party, he follows money and his popularity with his crazy fuckin base. The Republican party bought him just like they bought Reagan and I’m still not sure how anyone could be fooled by the exact same playbook.

      I read your first paragraph as a prediction of the future, until l realized that you were talking about the Great Depression and WWII.

      “Those who ignore history, are doomed to repeat it” is supposed to be cautionary, but MAGA sees it as a game plan.
