useful as propaganda tools. and unlike most other media, it can be locally coordinated. it is the only unique advantage trump and the cons have, have had, for 30 years. continuing to ignore it is still the biggest political mistake in history.

limbaugh/radio led the COVID denial that is still getting thousands of people killed

putin/trump collusion ran through limbaugh and continues to. putin's been using our radio since at least 2008, using manafort and limbaugh to push palin on mccain.

radio has been the lead medium for 30 years. it might fade but for ignoring it for 30 years we got this disaster, with people thinking we've lost or will lose what democracy we have and somehow the stupidest president ever, with putin help, is going to destroy america - the problem was and still is the radio

it will play a huge part in many states in calling these elections fraudulent- after selling the pretext that fraud is common for democrats/'illegal aliens' in the first place in order to sell the suppression legislation

brazil's bolsanaro credit the 'brazillian limbaugh' , a guy who broadcasts from virginia!, with his success - and the amazon burns.....
