Well isn’t this just like America in the 2020s? The New York Times did a focus group with Biden voters who are not especially happy with the president, and the thing that united them was that Republicans are even worse. Now these are Democrats, and the focus group was run by the New York Times,…

Every so often, some pompous gasbag emerges to play the ‘me got big brain’ card against conservatives. This round is from a former columnist and author, Bruce Bartlett.

ANYWAY, it’s awesome, rad, and totally debunks the Left’s narrative that Republicans are racist. And during a time when our own president is pushing the idea that white conservative America…
