What a wild time to be around in. Imagine trying to explain to a Reagan republican in the 80s that by the 2020s they’d be following a guy who literally does nothing to hide the fact that he’s a Russian asset for an ex-KGB strong man.
The right really has totally collapsed the notion of fact based reality.
He might be happy about defeating communism, but he wouldn’t be happy about getting cozy with Russia.
My grandfather was happy to win WW2, but he never bought a German or Japanese car, you know? Also, he didn’t use the words “German” or “Japanese”, but that’s another story…
And nowadays if it’s a CUV or SUV it’s probably as much made in America as any of the American brands.
I grew up in Detroit and my parents owned some of the only VWs (old Bugs and a Bus). They got some shit for it in the 70s-80s, but nothing like my aunt got when her dad (an engineer for Chrysler and lifelong devotee) bought her a ‘59 beetle in ‘59. The jocks at her school rolled it on its roof.
I’m trying to think of what my father is saying to himself. I would guess he’s just laughing at Tuck for being “a joke” without allowing any introspection whatsoever. :)

Well, Russia is not communist anymore, Reagan would be happy!

My grandfather was at Pearl Harbor, and the day he bought a Honda blew everyone’s minds.
