Not that it would be a bad thing if he did.

He definitely said it because I had multiple conversations with my husband about the impossibility of it. And reminded him about the millions Reagan gave amnesty to.

One thing is for certain name calling like the above and in your screen name, only has the effect of inflaming things. But it must make you feel better.

It is as real as it gets. Anybody can search YouTube and get it from the horse's mouth.

Joe Biden is a traitor to the United States of epic proportions. I don't care about Q conspiracies.
Look over there - not over here!

It was one of the worst things that Reagan ever did. I don’t think he had any idea what he was doing when it came to illegal immigration. Nobody is perfect.

Still, all the good things Reagan did eclipse the mistakes he made, in my book. He was definitely revolutionary.

I'll have to admit, the QAnon shaman came out with a pretty good look..kinda like a rock star on acid or something..I mean if you're ready to roll out publicly with horns and fur there must be something to your belief system, even if your probably nutty as a fruitcake..I'm not quite ready to sign on yet though.lol..

Pick your battles, basically.
More or less this. I don't talk politics with family that I know will have an issue with my politics.

I have a bunch of trumper family members, a few bought into the voter fraud conspiracy bull****, but luckily none has jumped down the Q rabbit hole.

My husband wants to dress up like him for Halloween. It's definitely rather distinctive.

Not a one. The only people I ever hear using the word, "QAnon," are liberals on the Internet, assigning it to people with whom they disagree. For months, I had no idea what the term meant, and even after having a family member explain it, I was about as clear about it as I was with the "Illuminati."

Since having people in your families apparently requires an intervention, do you have any loved ones who believe police officers, prosecutors, judges, teachers, principals, school boards are conspiring to lock up thousands and thousands of black men who didn't do anything at all? Or worse, shoot them for no reason whatsoever? I daresay such a fantastical belief is in graver need of some sophisticated intervention, preferably accompanied by FBI UCI and Bureau of Justice crime statistics.
