Who the heck is writing these hate laden screeds?-----How Old Bad Ideas Become Wonderful

How Old Bad Ideas Become Wonderful - By Victor Davis Hanson
"Bad and bankrupt ideas, protocols, and ideologies—like McCarthyism, communism, various cults, or fascism—resurface not because of their intrinsic or lasting value or record of success, but because
civilizations become less vigilant and allow human vanities, ignorance, arrogance, and evil to reassert themselves. 
  • Joe McCarthy Is Back
Our Tail Gunner Joe (of semi-truck driving expertise and brilliant legal training fame) in a single week smeared roughly half the country as un-American “semi-fascists.” 
Then in one of the creepiest speeches and background sets in American political history, Joe Biden railed that “Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans are a threat to the very soul of this country.” 
...All that was missing from the rant was Biden waving to the crowd a purported list of names of prominent MAGA threats to our collective soul and screaming, “I have here in my hand a list of 205 members of the MAGA Party!”
Yet Biden never quite told us what was subversive about the “MAGA Scare” or wanting to “Make America Great Again.”..."
