I remember even when I was very young my Dad used to say, “ Dirty,stinking,lousy Republicans”.
It was a long standing family catchphrase thing I heard it in the 60’s when we were watching the evening news. He hated Nixon, and Reagan with a passion. Didn’t talk to his father for two weeks when he found out he voted for Eisenhower. He would have lost his mind over BuSh and twitler would have finished him off now if he was alive.
