History Rhymes
After the 1924 election results had been digested, they (the LaFollete family) drove back to LaFollete's home in Maple Bluff, Wisconsin late that night. In the car, the sons lamented that organized labor seemed to have deserted them in the election. Bob LaFollete snapped back, "We have had hard times but never the haunting fear of losing your job, of losing those paychecks that are all that stand between starvation for those workers and their families. Don't blame the folks, they just got scared."
Trump - LaFollette in 2024!
