How sad it must be for Trump supporters

[certainot]

40. there's a herd of idiots who believe the alt reality because it gets repeated without direct challen

challenge from the left - that's the dominant political buzz in 40 states with 80 senators. the idiots on fox and the GOP reps and media hacks know they can repeat the dominant lies because they know/feel that they have been pounded into the earholes of 50 mil per week for months, even years.

if the GOP and putin would pay $1000/hr for radio lies denying global warming, making excuses for trump, selling deregulation and tax breaks, and defunding public ed, then 1200 radio stations 15hrs/day are worth about $5BIL/year FREE and without direct challenge or correction.

for thirty years they've had carnival barkers on every corner and stump in the country lying and hating all day, coordinated nationally and locally, and no one got in their face. eventually it becomes truth and the racism becomes more 'acceptable', and when media guys like eric boehlert blames everything on fox because he can't watch or read talk radio it's even worse.

and the minority of actual dittoheads/teabags who actually listen to the crap and believe it repeat it to secondary and tertiary audiences too busy or apathetic to fact check.

ignoring talk radio has been the biggest political mistake in history - and the dem party and progressive groups don't even complain that more than 88 universities endorse 260 limbaugh stations!
