You’d be surprised how much we agree on. The media isn’t fair and hasn’t been for some time now. It is what it is but thanks to the internet there are ways to find something that is closer to the truth than CNN and Newsmax put out. Having said that a certain sector or people have fallen into the trap of believing even the most absurd crap because they are told that anything that contradicts that narrative is fake news. Part of Trump’s schtick is telling even the most absurd lies over and over until they become truth in his followers minds. That is even more dangerous than a media that is pro left. When an authoritarian leader keeps repeating lies until they become truth we are well on our way to repeating a particularly ugly chapter of history. Honestly, I can support a conservative candidate, even one that was a strong supporter of Trump as long as they respect the Constitution and conduct themselves with a level of decorum and dignity befitting a commander and chief. We haven’t had that since GWB.
