13. I heard a very conservative/tea party/Trump-type talk show host

Nov 2017

(Mike Gallagher) claiming Abraham Lincoln, Martin Luther King, Jr., JFK, and Robert Kennedy as one of their own. (He was rambling on about the song Abraham, Martin, and John - and threw in Bobby, as well.)

I nearly ran off the road. Since I have conservative talk radio on because it is the only talk radio I can get at between midnight and 3 AM, when I'm usually driving home - and jazz all night (or whatever music NPR has on) puts me to sleep, I pinched myself a few times to make sure I hadn't actually fallen asleep.

Not sure what to make of it.
