I hadn’t heard of the Know Nothing movement. Thanks for the historical reference. I’ll have to study it further. It’s resemblance to the QAnon movement is interesting.
I hope you’re right about QAnon, but with each lunatic elected to office I’m losing faith in American voters. I’m concerned about the sane Republicans (those who’ve called out Trump, Greene, etc.) and the push by the GOP to have them "primaried." Disturbing.
And I like your references to Looney Tunes (so much adult humor that we missed when we were young, right?) and Star Trek. I reluctantly watched Star Trek as a child because my brothers controlled the remote but soon became a fan. I actually watched Star Trek Beyond last night. ;)
