At last a conservative celebrity I've heard of who can sing better than Lara Trump enters the political debate.

It's strange to think that 90% of our collective freedoms might be gone with four more years of Trump, but hey...this country was once young, too.

The only time I think I've thought about Taylor Swift having kids was when someone mentioned what would happen if she and Kelce had a boy. He's going to ball out in the first half of a football game, do the halftime show, and then ball out in the second half. He'll also have a weird bromance with Kermit Mahomes's kid.
 
It is really, really strange to think that. Why would you look at any woman and think about her ova?

It's also incorrect, even if we leave out all of the assumptions (she's a woman; she has functional ovaries; her menstrual cycle is normal; the age at which she started her menstrual cycles; the average age at which women become menopausal), there's a few fundamental misunderstandings on female biology going on.

Which is little surprise, really.

Because the white Christian nationalists are berking obsessed with making more white children that can be raised to become more Christian nationalists. It is their primary fixation.

If you want a little fun, google Stefan Molyneaux. At least as of this writing, the main picture of him that pops up is a strange wide-angle shot that makes him look like Megamind.
 
To be grudgingly fair, many of the Trump supporters I personally know are not overtly racist (though most do tend to be unswervingly Christian).

Most of them are single-issue voters on the economy, who are under the (hugely mistaken) impression that Trump will reduce deficit spending and entitlement programs, and will "improve" the economy. They are pretty much dead wrong, and there is zero chance of convincing them otherwise. But at least there is the smallest shred of reasoning there.

On the other hand, I'd say the number 2 issue on most of their minds is immigration, and on that, they have all chugged the Kool-Aid. Many seem to have completely bought the myth that hordes of Mexican illegals are running rampant across America, raping, pillaging, and cashing welfare checks like the Mongols conquering Asia. I saw someone, with unquestioning anger and astounding credulity, say that every illegal Mexican in Colorado got "$15,000 a month in welfare and 100% free health care."

It's amazing how many truly economically illiterate people make this their single-issue.
It's primarily Boomers, but they're the most economically illiterate group. These are the same people who call Kalama "Comrade" while saying socialism is the worst thing to ever happen in the history of the world, all while drawing social security and sponging Medicare benefits. They think the stock market is an accurate representation of the economy because it directly controls their 401K and IRA payouts. They also can't understand why millennials and younger can't just "pull themselves up by their bootstraps" and buy a house because they did it while their wife stayed home and pumped out babies all while the man of the house paid for everyone on a factory job with good benefits which were probably given to him by a labor union.

While it's not all Boomers who are like this, it's a majority of them. They're entitled idiots who are the primary voters in the country too. It's why we get so many terrible politicians.

And, unfortunately, it makes them completely blind (or at least indifferent to) the entire anti-civil-liberties crapfest that is the real force behind the Republican Party these days.

Yea, part of the economic illiteracy is to fail to recognize the impact of a civil-liberties crapfest on economics.

I wish I could earn that much for doing bugger all.
