There was once a time, post Nixon, that Mn Republicans changed their name to Independent Republican Party, IR, to differentiate themselves from national Republican party.
They are full on magat franchise now.So we got “I’m a black nazi”, another dude caught doing blackface, and “the bad guys won WWII”
FYI we’re only doing state and local politics in the USA now, so no reason to connect Minnesota with North Carolina
He’s running for a US senate seat. This isn’t really “just” a state and local politics; even if non-minnesotans don’t really get a say.
Personally, I’m glad this asshat is running. we might be able to flip the seat.
Shhh don’t blow my cover
When I talk about “Outstate Rednecks”, West and the governor-candidate guy that ran against Walz last time are the kinds of people I’m talking about. They make it easy to defeat them.
What’s terrifying though, is that of all the potential candidates for MN governor the GOP put up… Jensen was the least insane. (I mean that literally.)
When they’re all fascists aligned with the same national fascist party, and saying and doing fascist things, it seems fair to link them.
No no no fascists from different states are all doing isolationist shit
Wasn’t the US a part of the winning team?
…that ended up getting a big number of the other team to start playing for them, instead. To say that’s had knock on effects would be an understatement.
I feel like the rest of the quote provides a bit of context:
The bad guys won in WWII. There were no ‘good guys’ in that war.
Not sure that I would call the US which was still practicing eugenics and had a large portion of the country under Jim Crow laws. Considering that White is black, I could understand him not seeing the US as good guys. The Soviet Union had a very recent genocide of their own. The UK also had some pretty abhorrent practices in Bangladesh that led to millions of deaths.
However, in comparison to the fucking Nazis, still going to say there was a more moral side.
Out of the three major blocks. The allies (not counting the Soviets) were by far the most humane. Even though they did quite some fucked up shit. It was nowhere near the scale of the Axis and the Soviet.
Lets not forget the soviets literally started the war with a Nazi alliance and invaded Poland and Finland for territory. They also committed great atrocities towards the polish population.
However. The allies were still coloinial powers who bombed civilians as a war tactic. They were far from “heavenly”.
I like to say that there was a bad side and an even worse side, so I’m glad the bad side won.
That’s actually not the full quote. The full quote show he was not talking about any of those issues at all. He was concerned with the allies being “liberal” and “communist”
It dawned on me today… The bad guys won in WWII. There were no “good guys” in that war. The controlling interests had a jump ball. If you look closely, you see the link between liberalism and communism in the Allied forces. Remember what Gen. Patton said and why they capped him.
Remember what Gen. Patton said and why they capped him.
Oh for fuck’s sake, we’re doing Patton conspiracy theories now!? He died from injuries sustained from smashing his head in a car accident, you weird Nazi!
All famous people who died in cars are actually alive. Even if they’re super old! Isadora Duncan, James Dean, Paul Walker, Grace Kelly, Princess Diana… all alive.
Don’t forget JFK!
I was thinking car crashes rather than their brain being splattered all over the car, by a bullet or two, but sure. Let’s throw him into the mix too. These idiots will believe anything. A bunch of them really do believe JFK, Jr. is still alive.
No no no, they’re all dead, it’s just the reason they’re dead is because the Derp State took them out and made them look like car accidents!
In case anyone else had to google this…

I’m pretty sure Patton was complete trash overall so whatever.
obligatory mitchell and webb.
