@HeerJeet Trump seems to be mobilizing the MARs that Donald Warren wrote about—successors to the Wallace/Southie/WestVa crowd of the '70s.1 reply 0 retweets 1 like -

@notjessewalker No, didn't read. Rothbard had a McCarthyite period? I thought he supported Adlai Stevenson in 1950s?1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -
