This place is turning into an X of the left, and it is as equally as unattractive as X itself
You cannot hold the high ground if you behave in exactly the same way

This is Winston Churchill visiting the White House during World War II.
Funny how he isn’t wearing a suit either. Almost like he was a wartime leader defending his country from being slaughtered and wiped out by an authoritarian aggressor.
