Hope he's not a right-winger (pretty fucking rare for those of that age), or he'll be complicit in being supported by socialism. They'll fry him for that.

    I had a very animated discussion with a Vietnam vet a couple weeks ago. He saw the disabled veteran license plate on my car and asked me about it. We somehow very quickly got to bitching about Trump and idiotic MAGA policies lol

    I know it's rare, but they do exist
