MAGA as a whole presents itself as an adolescent rebellion against what they consider adult authority.

Snot-nosed kids, defiantly filthy by design.

I never believed in the notion of retrograde culture before MAGA.

Well, they prove it's a thing. Prove it wth their lives as often as need be.

Ebola's coming.
