    It goes back further than that. Reagan’s vice president served as director of the largest terrorist organization in the world from January 30th 1976 to January 20th 1977. But was approved for the role only after he pledged not to run for president. Running instead as vice president shortly after he left.

    He and his running mate winning handily over Carter. Due to optics surrounding the Iran hostage crisis. And coincidence of coincidences, guess what day the hostages were released… If you guessed Reagan’s inauguration day you’re a winner. Though of course Reagan/Bush had nothing to do with that. Of course. And it was just a coincidence when the Reagan administration immediately turned around to sell weapons to the country that had held American hostages. To circumvent a US embargo to supply terrorists in South America. Total innocent coincidence. Which is why George H W Bush then turned around to pardon all involved when he won the presidency he swore he wouldn’t run for.

    And George H W Bush wasn’t an outlier or first generation evil shit heel. He was following in his daddy’s footsteps. Ole Prescott Bush. Who is loosely implicated in the coup plot roughly 90 years before the January 6th one. This shit runs deep.
