They thought he was John 'f'ing' Wayne but all they got

was a flaccid coward on a hobby horse, trump. Dems look great in the saddle. Gather round townsfolk, run the black hatted evil doer out of town. Clearly a great Western's plot and tale to be told in 2020.

He's a soft, weak, stupid, ignorant, rich boy who has never done a bit of work in his life.

Hell, I don't knpow why they think that of John Wayne! He wasn't a cowpoke, a gunslinger, or a soldier. He just pretended to be all those things. He had an opportunity to prove himself in the war of his generation, and he chickened out and made Hollywood war movies instead. He should only be an icon of American masculinity to people, like himself, who actually possess none...

But he's a racist, and that's all that matters to the MAGA crowd.

John Wayne's real name was Marion Morrison and he never served in the military and was afraid of horses.

folks think trump is that good guy from movie roles Wayne played. Wayne's personal life is not anything anyone knows.
