It's a complex story that's still in transition. A former punk that's gone from boots to suits. Along the way, he was charged with federal crimes for drawing down of federal agents at the Bundy standoff, he was acquitted and now he's running as a Republican. It reminds me a bit of an IRA member going to the Sinn Fein. Along the way, the IRA calls you a sellout, the opposition calls you a terrorist and everyone has enough truth to stick. For a father with a nervous wife and four kids, I'm curious about his resolve to keep it going and the commitment to do it with an organized party within the existing framework. ------------------------- "One of the reasons why propaganda tries to get you to hate government is because it's the one existing institution in which people can participate to some extent and constrain tyrannical unaccountable power."

Well, I suppose he might as well try to milk it for a living- it's not like he's got much else going.
Idaho seems to be the place for it- otherwise, he's back in Phoenix working at some machine shop. That Black Flag tattoo is weird though- what's with the ovoid outline? Not sure how Henry Rollins would feel about that.. well, on second thought, I'm pretty sure how he'd feel about that lol ------------------------- When America was "great" Edited: 10/23/2020 at 08:23 AM by fishkller |

I think the republicans will be scared of him and the militias will think he sold out. He has an opportunity to leave behind his antigovernment notions and actually try to govern. I am curious about his competing interests.
