“She’s done treasonous acts,” said Gary Wilson, an exceedingly friendly 39-year-old registered Libertarian and former Ross Perot supporter who was wearing a tricorn hat with a “Make America Great Again” sticker on it.

(“I enjoyed their company,” he said of meeting the Bundys. “I thought they were really solid people.”)
