What you've said here really is common sense. I would love to find a way to get your message across to those who watch Fox News and are under the constant bombardment of far-right propaganda and "alternative facts."

What Fox News and anti-social media data mining/microtargeting have done to America is criminal. What a trick to get people to vote against their own interests and celebrate it as if they've won some prize. Heartbreaking and maddening. I just hope that the spell breaks in the wake of what is happening now. What a weird timeline we're living in.

Thank you for your words, they speak truth. We need DEI more now than ever and for the dumb people who don't get it, to get it, to understand what it means to the American people. Cheeto and all those that follow him need to go.....

Honestly, I think it’s less about intellect and more about a steady diet of fear and misinformation. I agree about the Orange Menace, but I hope the Dems can do a better job of messaging!

Yup, MAGA has zero critical thinking skills and zero common sense. That is why the world is in this mess. Barnum Bailey was correct. There's a suckered born every minute

Yes, people can be gullible and easily manipulated and playing on fear and ‘the other’ is a tried and true playbook. I do think if the Dems took some cues from Bernie and simplified their messaging it could help them reach more people.
