"you need some sort of MAGA decoder ring" Gov. Huckabee's reply

Last edited Wed Feb 8, 2023, 09:41 AM - Edit history (1)

A woman on Morning Joe - didn’t catch her name - said that about Gov. Huckabee’s rant.

As a consumer of rightwing media especially talk radio this was normal daily fare. The first 10 minutes of Hannity’s radio show is very similar. Dystopian with tons of references and inside jokes. Frankly it seemed like Huckabee was trying to establish herself for a future Senate or POTUS run. She IS promoted as the youth movement in the GOP. She’s “Americas youngest governor” at 40.

their chaos brain waves have gotten accustomed to such incoherent messaging and it is violently dangerous.

They said she basically conjured up Trump without ever mentioning his name. The speech only got about 30 or 40 seconds of mention, none of it positive.
