good historical perspective in this history-focused site… sadly, Trump is no more outrageous for current times than Reagan was for the 80s… now we’re living in a less regulated, financial trickledown manipulated world that is the outcome of Reagan’s dreams and four decades of Reagan acolyte fervor: Fox, OAN, and Newsmax are considered new sources, Limbaugh wears the highest civilian honor (6 ft under), Gingrich/McConnell obstructionism is considered smart politics.
We just have to hope that the new common sense of Biden’s administration and the work of the DOJ move enough everyday Americans by the midterms. And remind people that, as another poster said yesterday, there is still public service in American politics and Biden and Harris are providing it.
(If you have a Tv/media bundle that includes Fox, OAN, and Newsmax, find a way to drop it and still get what you want. Their getting $3,$4 or $5 from you every month from the majority of Americans who don’t watch them by this “socialistic” cable bundling system. Find a way to kick them off the dole, and let the Trump base pay full price for their viewing.)
dropping cable is not that hard to do. I like paying for only the services I want, like Britbox & Hulu, etc. I no longer am addicted to TV news, weather and inane programming on cable. I pay for a couple news subscriptions online & of course HCR :D
