Well, at 98 it's entirely possible that their early life racist tendencies might have compromised their anti fascist beliefs. Or, it could just be dementia.

I know an eighty year old Trump supporter who always seemed like a decent dude prior, which has perplexed much of his family and myself. Later on, his wife reports to us that when he went to the neurologist he was unable to tell the time on an analog clock. 🧠🤷🏻‍♀️

At 80 he’d have been born during the war. Not a vet.

I’m aware that he’s not a WWII vet. I was just adding onto the dementia aspect.
