I think the mantra was “Don’t trust the establishment”.

OK, the establishment has been overthrown.

And they want the government to have all the guns, too.

What happened to the ’60s liberals whose mantra was, “Don’t trust the government”?

It only describes how LBJ might have thought Nixon was against him.

Would those that supposedly conspired with him (Nixon) been willing to risk it all on his less then certain victory?

We’re not talking about the 1972 race here but the one that happened in 1968.

Even the ones I tend to agree with. For that matter, it’s also why I actively resist placing any faith in government, no matter what form it takes.

It’s a very liberating feeling to be outside the cult of the state.
