Michael Savage (Weiner) said last week on his show, The Savage Nation, that the Democratic party was nothing but diseased-ridden filth and accused the party of attacking masculinity in America.

“If that’s not suicide, national suicide, please, tell me what is,” Savage said. “When a nation takes its masculine pride and attempts to de-ball it at every turn, by drugging it, by debasing it, by inhibiting it, tell how that nation can survive.”

“This is a nation that is the deep throes of illness,” Savage added. “It would be too easy to call it a mental illness… I’ve redefined the illness America’s suffering from as an autoimmune disease. America is suffering from what is the equivalent of political AIDS.”
