Yep, he’s a “Scoop Jackson Democrat”, but the Rats kicked them out years ago. So they infiltrated the GOP. Maybe they’ll finally return to their natural home.
Scoop Jackson was an honest and honorable man who loved his country.
Bush League Republicans aren’t and don’t.
I hate to admit it but, way back when, I was a "Scoop Jackson Democrat", but that only lasted long enough for him to lose in the primaries. I migrated to Pat Buchanan, then Ronald Reagan Rex.
Scoop Jackson was an honorable man and I am still proud to say that I supported him way back when. However, I moved to the right as I grew older, and am now solidly in the corner of President Donald Trump ...
“Scoop” Jackson helped intentionally torpedo Joseph McCarthy in the 1954 Army-McCarthy hearings by endorsing the intentionally false Democrat meme that McCarthy’s singling out her work with the Army Signal Corps and membership in the Communist Party as a case of mistaken identity.
It was not, and in closed session, Jackson sided with McCarthy’s view, but when it it was discussed with cameras present, he abruptly about faced and lied.
And he did it, as Truman had before him, to protect the Democrat party instead of protecting national security.
I have only contempt for the memory of “Scoop” Jackson, but even he was a Founding Father and patriot in comparison to Democrats today.
No way. Scoop Jackson would have loved Trump.
