I Like Sarah Huckabee Sanders

No. She is conservative because she is deplorable.

I remember Reagan. Why was he a traitor? A traitor to the old-school Conservatives?I DO remember how he started the National Debt. And of how he essentially sowed the seeds for Vladimir Putin when Communism fell. But this is where it gets foggy. Of all of the past presidents, Biden is the only one who saw Putin for what he was and is. Biden knows the black soul that is Vladimir Putin. My only take on the Ukrainian War now is that Ukraine may lose. But that's another topic for another day. The issue is the modern Republican Party. And they won't let America fall. (By this, however, they mean America the Empire). They are not concerned about the American people. And this is where it all gets foggy. Why do the Populists love Trump so much? And if Reagan split the Conservatives, what does that say about Trump?

Now you guys really have me curious about the devolution of the Conservative Party.Before jar brought up Nelson Rockefeller, I thought that the damage to the Conservatives started when they married religion with politics in the days of the Moral Majority. Now I am seeing rabbit trails that I never learned about before.Trump split them again, but I don't worry about Trump so much as I worry about the future of the Republican Party. jar claims it is fascism. As I connect the dots, I might ask:
Does Populism inevitably lead to Fascism?

I usually use Duck Duck Go. And why would I want to find stuff that supported your argument rather than mine? (Seriously I know why.) That reminds me...I've been slacking in my online class. I better get back there.

Research Iran Contra. In detail.

I'm starting to study what happened to Germany in the post-Great War reparations bills that they were forced to pay. I can see some interesting parallels with the besieged Working Class today.

If you look hard enough you can probably see a pink elephant in there too.

I'm not sure just when the televised "responses" (by the other party) to the State of the Union speeches started, but at least in the past several, they seem to be not as much a response as they are just a re-hashing of the talking points of the party without the presidency. There are speech writers for the SOTU speeches, and I doubt if Sarah was the only one that came up with what she said - it looked like it was all planned out before the SOTU speech happened. It was the same when whoever it was (can't remember) responded to Trump's SOTU speeches.It was about a half hour after Biden finished before she got started. I agreed with it of course, it's standard, accepted conservatism, despite what some Biden loving, free speech supporting (har) Democrats say here. But it seems like it could be prepared in a way that allowed someone like Sarah to plug in some actual quotes from the speech and address them. In the half hour between the speeches, there could be a room full of conservative note takers and suggestion makers who could quickly put together something like that in that half hour, including letting Sarah wing it on addressing a few of the things he said. She, or any number of others considered qualified to do that job, should be quick enough on their feet to do that. I didn't carefully analyze her speech, just watched it once, but I don't remember her being specific on anything he actually said. Comments Phat?

Have you ever seen a political, round table discussion on CNN, MSNBC, or the mainstream networks by experienced, respected liberal commentators? Imagine you being included there, having a discussion with them. How do you think they would react to you? Do you have a source for any of these things you say?

I started with a source from Encyclopeddia Britannica: Years-of-crises-1920-23Let's see...

Britannica:

---

A revived and radicalized right wing asked whether the German army might not have been stabbed in the back by traitors on the home front. Racist circles took seriously the notorious Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion, a fraudulent document fabricated in Russia in 1895 and published in Germany in 1920, which suggested that all of recent history, including World War I, resulted from a conspiracy of Jews seeking to control the world.

---

So far, I see racism, fake news, and suggestions by the right wing that vilified their political enemies. I may have struck gold, here. No pink elephants so far, though.

quote:

---

Freikorps, English Free Corps, any of several private paramilitary groups that first appeared in December 1918 in the wake of Germany’s defeat in World War I. Composed of ex-soldiers, unemployed youth, and other discontents and led by ex-officers and other former military personnel, they proliferated all over Germany in the spring and summer of 1919 and eventually numbered more than 65 corps of various names, sizes, and descriptions. Most were nationalistic and radically conservative and were employed unofficially but effectively to put down left-wing revolts and uprisings in Berlin, Bremen, Brunswick, Hamburg, Halle, Leipzig, Silesia, Thuringia, and the Ruhr.

I'm Not sure which radical group could compare with Freikorp, although the Proud Boys come to mind. To be fair, what about Antifa? Just because a group is radically Left rather than radically Right does not make them any less of a threat to national stability.

I have a friend who is far right. He considers himself a hardworking patriot. He loves America and what it "used to stand for." You see, his parents wer immigrants from Argentina. They believed in the American Dream and in hard work and the opportunity to get ahead. They likely would have been sickened by this CRT, Woke Agenda, equality over freedom nonsense that the Left by and large advocates. Of course, I argue with him too. I always like playing devil's advocate no matter what your argument is.By the way, he watches Fox News way more than I do.

Just what is CRT? What is a "woke agenda"? What is wrong with equality over freedom and how do you think it should be?
