MAGA — the right-wing conspiracy nuts who are unhappy with the status quo in Washington, D.C. Well, not really.

I mean, if you think “right-wing” means wanting lower taxes for ordinary Americans who are sick of sending half their income to government officials who live like Hollywood stars. That’s not right-wing, that’s just normal people.

As for conspiracy nuts, that’s a clever misnomer.

That powerful people do not always serve the best interests of ordinary people is the norm in history. You’re welcome to think Washington is doing a great job. Everyone there is honest, respectful, and daily their whole mission in life is to make our lives better. No politicians lie there, no one cheats. No corruption. No one there is beholden to special interests.

That is nuts, in my humble opinion.

The only way to take back our power, our freedom, our rights as American citizens is take power and money away from Washington, D.C., corrupt politicians, expose the special interests controlling them, and restore our republic. Time is up for those who are corrupt.

Come back President Trump!
