Glenn Beck is less fucked up than Elliot Rodgers only to the extent that he hasn't been running around with a gun shooting people. He's about as delusional. I've read a fair amount of American history and I don't recall ever hearing that TR said anything to the effect that women "should not have the right to choose who to mate and breed with" and should all be placed in concentration camps. I think I might have remembered that.

His insane word salad alludes me today with that extra dash of pseudo-babble. When did Teddy put people in concentration camps, I missed that memo.

He was most likely schooled on the issue by David Barton.
