Replace the huge picture of George Washington with the image of tRump, and you'd have a perfect representation of today's Rupuke party and its ignorant, evil membership.

I can see that everybody recognizes the tactics used at this gathering were copied into the 45 campaign. I want to know if the Ring Wingers will be able to know the tactics 45 will use to further destroy our country than he already has.

.....He was a Nazi sympathizer in the 1930s. He was estranged from the family by the time I was born, and died when I was about 10 years old. Don't miss not meeting him.
