      Yeah, I wonder how he’d feel about walking it back further, to a time when black men also could not vote. Or maybe to a time when all blacks in this country were considered farm equipment. He sure likes to talk about how various groups of people should “know their place”.

      No, no, you see he has to be at the top so he can pull the ladder up behind him. That’s the whole point of being a Republican! You can’t make him go back to him being at the bottom with the poors and the women and, God forbid, the gays!

          Of course the gays did it. Their rainbows are a source of immense power - it can turn frogs gay, your children trans, make your wife leave you for another woman, and most cruelly force decent, heterosexual men to have sex with each other (no homo).

          The greatest threat they pose is if we let them marry, becoming a sort of gay Voltron. Also unisex bathrooms are right out because we need to make sure that anyone holding their penis in their hand is in the same room together at the same time. That’s super straight, just like highschool wrestling.

      What do you mean, I’m sure the 1920s were great for them! Oh wait maybe not

      Maybe he was thinking of before that … Yeah no I don’t know, maybe he’s thinking of a different “America?” Maybe South America has better history around then with regard to equality and peace in general. I’ll, uh, leave that as an exercise to the reader 😅
