I miss Ron Paul and real conservatives

I may not agree with all his positions but he was at least a good dude and not a slimy crook

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I would say the "let people die" thing would make him not a good dude.

There was also the whole "I didn't know there was a bunch of white nationalist shit in my own newsletter l that I put my own name and signature on."

He for sure had no idea at all. I mean it was buried somewhere in the back where he might have missed it, right? It wouldn't have been right at the top of the front pa-

Oh.

Well, I'm sure he changed his mind when it came to that sort of thing. After all, he was only- *checks* 57 at the time.

I once had a Ron Paul supporter threaten me with her leashed, pet monkey--she said it didn't like people who didn't support Ron Paul. The majority of those people were next-level loons.

They very much were. And I'm guessing many of them are now Trump's most fervent supporters.

Yep, the Tea Party stuff really helped pave the way for the current bullshit very directly.
