False Patriots – The Catholic Thing

Donald Trump’s re-election felt like more than a mere electoral victory. It was a profound affirmation of American values and an unequivocal rejection of the lunatic ideas of the left, ideas designed to undermine faith, family, and nation. With Trump back in office, I believed, it was morning in America once again. What a difference a year makes. Consider Nick Fuentes. He’s the uber-influential podcaster and Holocaust revisionism hobbyist who caused a stir in 2022 for dining with Trump at Mar-a-Lago. Fuentes and Trump supporters, Tucker Carlson, and Candace Owens have descended into antisemitism and a kind of nationalism that is fracturing conservatism.
