35. Hey Folk, I mean no disrespect

to anyone but these Maga voters you speak of have been around for as long as I remember My 93 year old mother had denoted the same. To us African Americans, Maga is nothing more than the Tea Party redux and before that, just plain old redneck Klan, Nazis, etc.

From our perspective, we simply can't discern any reason why Maga would turn their backs on Trump. He's given them the ultimate freedom to come out and be themselves, for all to the world to see. In other words, there's no shame in their deplorable game.
