He is confident, and secure in all of that.
No MAGAT can touch him.

of course the MAGA republicans cannot muster respect for our veterans, and so they once again reveal themselves to be disgraceful republican a-holes.

The Native American who apparently was being mocked by teens wearing MAGA hats in a viral video says he has "fear for those youth, fear for their future, fear for their souls, their spirit, what they're going to do to this country."

IMHO regarding his remarks - these hoodlums are no different from their parents (as we saw the main thug's mother's reaction) and grandparents and great-grandparents - basically no different from their ancestors... and notably with respect to the treatment of both indigenous natives and those some of their ancestors dragged kicking and screaming here from the continent of Africa (which were my ancestors). Their mentality goes back hundreds of years in this country and they keep reproducing themselves generation after generation like vermin.
