"Other people may be in America, but they live there only with the sufferance of the nation’s true owners. ...

It’s a conglomeration of men who believe that oppressing women and crushing diversity is the way to convert America into their white Christian paradise."

"They see Vance’s ugly attacks on women, immigrants, and others as points to be celebrated. And they see him as the leader they’ve been looking for, a kind of anti-diversity messiah—a 'Christian Prince' for a white nationalist America. ...
