I attended both Tea Party and Occupy events a decade ago. Came away thinking if they ever understood their common grievances we'd see a unbeatable coalition for change.

馃挴. There are in many cases different ideas as to how to address those grievances. At its heart, The MAGA rally is in support of a strongman they wish will improve their lot at the detriment to others; the picketers are joining together to use their power to get their needs met.

The worker at the MAGA rally is worried that white people will no longer be considered to be superior to those other folks. But you already knew that.

You have a gift for taking difficult subjects and vomiting up absurd fortune cookie quotes that are meaningless or wrong.
