  1. AHC: A paleoconservative dominated GOP.

    Anyone derailing discussion by trying to say the Trumps election is proof of paleoconservatism as the power ideology in the modern GOP should really take another look. One of the only realistic ways to allow for paleocons to gain control the GOP establishment in the last century in my opinion...
  2. What did Hitler mean by this?
