This is something that people need to be reminded about:

The OG conservatives, the Reagan and George H. W Bush conservatives, the fiscal responsibility conservatives, the tough-on-crime conservatives are the very same movement as the MAGA movement, the transnational white power movement, the Christian nationalist movement, the Project 2025 / Project 47 movement.

The policies advocated for and still pushed by the OGs are what led to Trump's takeover of the GOP in 2016, the MAGA uprising and the movement towards one-party autocracy. The ones that are complaining now that the Heritage Foundation, the Federalist Society and Trump and MAGA are going to far still believe in the same policies that got us here. They just wish we had a few dozen more miles to plummet before smashing into the ground.

They didn't just by tickets to ride this train. They invested in the railroad company. They told the company where the destination was when they hired on the workforce. The railroad was built to their specifications.

In fact, we were pretty close to here during the Great Depression, only the people were much more into communism and what the Soviet Union was trying to do than what was happening in Italy and Germany. Only the industrialists wanted the fashy stuff.

After the New Deal, WWII, the Cold War, the Great Society, and then forty years of right-wing propaganda spoon fed to us and our kids, We're marching to a faster pace once again. But the conservatives were always on board from the beginning. They just imagined the parades and not so much the brutality and genocide.

And they certainly didn't imagine the genocide projects would eventually come for them. ( Narrator: The genocide programs will totally come for the OG conservatives. )
