14. Amazing how the word has changed isn't it.

During Bush2, DUers lambasted Bolton. He was a liar. A warmongerer. Dangerous. All of that was true by the way.

Look at the guy now. Someone who we then classified as being on the far right, is basically seen practically as a liberal now in today’s political landscape. Just goes to show just how far drumpf has pushed the party. The only parties in America now, to the current government, are MAGA, and drumpf’s enemies.

And the media just goes right on acting like it’s the same old gop it always has been.
