Before Today's Politics There was the Know Nothing Party. Before Republicans Came After Latin Americans, Came After Muslims. The Know Nothing Party Came After German American Immigrants Like My Great Grandparents. I Got News for You! You Attacked My Great Grandparents, I Will Defend My Latin American Bretheren, I Will Defend My Muslim American Bretheren Just as Much as Another Illinois American Would. You See Many of My German Catholic American Ancestors Settled in Illinois.

PO1 William "Chip" Nagel
LTC Eugene Chu I used to be a Reagan Dole, Compassionate Conservative. No More. What is Left is Know Nothing, Not So Subtle Racist and Fascist. I am the Antithesis for Everything they are Now. If they Want to Label Me I am ANTIFA. I Promise to Stand against every Evil they Stand Up For,

You also posted this same Vox clip on RallyPoint a few years ago. Like you, I WAS a conservative. Unfortunately, the GOP of today has been usurped from hubris.

PO1 William "Chip" Nagel - Please name some of the evils. Of protecting the American Middle class and starting it on a come back. Please explain how doing what either party hasn't done in years ( putting America and it's Ppl First ) was a bad thing? I could go on all night but it's hopeless. Because you will ignore my comment about putting the American Ppl first and just show your hate to an opposing factual point of view.

Aren't German and Irish ppl white? Yes, ppl have different Ideals and beliefs. But when you come to a country that welcomes you with open arms pays, for your shelter, food and education shouldn't you be thankful instead of despising the country that took you in. I don't hate anyone for their skin color or religion. But I do despise hypocrites.
