Why do so many has-beens show up at far-right websites and venues?

I could list them, but there's just too many, the latest though, Larry Gatlin, (remember him and his brothers?) really made an ass of himself at the Bottom Of The Sewer, "Fox And Friends."

They would tend to fight to retain whatever they got.

I don't begrudge people with money for being tight assed Republicans.

What I don't understand is the never-hads who vote for policies that screw them over.
