They'll do anything to disguise the naked truth about themselves: wrap themselves in the American flag, make American great again slogans, "believe in America" "restore America" - and on and on.
We all know what they really mean and I won't repeat it here, but we all know it it's just the most base, blatant, and vile racial slur that can be imagined.
It's tragic what has taken place in this country, in 2023 yet. Never in a million years did I ever expect to see this in this country.
