Anyone who lost a parent to the Rush Limbaugh/Talk-news pipeline will understand.
Oh, honey. Your dad was a corrupt, festering pile of shit long before he had anything to do with Donny.
She was born in 89. It’s not like she was following her dad’s political career when she was a toddler. I’m sure she idealized her father, and ignored his faults. But as many of us know, Trump has made people like Rudy just drop the mask and give in to their worst nature gleefully. People who I knew were conservative but good, chill people, have become raving lunatics since Trump’s rise. Or if they weren’t such great people, they at least minded their business and kept their craziness to themselves. Now they take pride in being insane.
Rudy should be proud of his daughter’s wisdom. He won’t. But he should.
It’s sorta like how last week I told my mom she did a good job of raising me to have better politics than she has. She’s a supporter of the orange bad.
Thats how I feel about my grandmother, she shoved rightwing talking points into my ear and I came out hating the rich and powerful. Funny how that works, ya praise 18th century revolutionaries and ya end up with someone who emulates the viciousness of said revolutionaries just with some updates. It is often times said the communism is an attempt at delivering the promises of the enlightenment, shame im some fucked up type of market socialist and am too biased to fully embrace the idealism of secularism because fuck the Mormons.
I’m not American, but I do hope that Caroline’s message will resonate with the undecided voters or even some Trump supporters. I still can’t believe he is being taken seriously by a large proportion of Americans.
