Hell yes! This is an older dude I agree with and wish there were more of.

It’s dumb but I saw him and immediately thought maga. I’m always glad to be wrong about stuff like that

I would bet that he's partly trying to look MAGA on purpose. They'll skip past the video that looks like it's from a person who would stereotypically disagree with them. This guy though, standing in front of a flag? They'll click it, and hopefully they'll get far enough in to get something out of it.

I’m the same way; I’ve been extra gripey about Boomers lately and it was really nice to see one with some sense and a handle on reality.
