Not all MAGA family members cheer for MAGA. MAGA dads, I suspect, keep very tight control of what the family can, and cannot do.
Throughout the decades, it has become unAmerican for the so-called patriarchs to keep an iron grip on what everyone is allowed to do. This is a large part of making America 'great again': let's go back to those long ago times when dads called all the shots. But those were not good times; things were often settled with a good gunfight, but the heroes often did not win. This testosterone-infused style of storytelling, though Trump and MAGA see it through rose-tinted glasses, does not represent the truth of history.
MAGA dads frequently do not understand the contributions of blacks, and women, and foreigners and immigrants, to the amazing developments in American science and art and education. All of you who grew up with non-MAGA dads must be grateful.
Recently, it appears that MAGA believe that the only way to win is through cheating. It's as though they're saying: "Winning is important. If we have to cheat, then that's what we must do. If we cheat, it's not really cheating."
No, it is; it's cheating. We're keeping count of it.
