“The biggest reason for the missing alarm about the prospect of Trump 47 might simply be a lack of information. The New Republic’s Greg Sargent recently reported on a poll of 1,200 voters deemed gettable for Biden in three swing states, including Pennsylvania, and found the vast majority didn’t know about Trump’s “dictator for a day” comments, or that he’d echoed Adolf Hitler in calling enemies “vermin” and claiming migrants are “poisoning the blood” of America. The pollster said only 31% of persuadable voters had heard much about these statements. You can call it voter apathy, but a lot of the blame belongs to a mainstream media that’s not banging the pots and pans like it should be and remains much more obsessed about the horse race odds of who wins the election than the stakes of an undemocratic presidency.” inquirer.com/columnists/tru…
@tribelaw I’ve knocked a lot of doors during this last two or three election cycles and talked to a lot of voters, and the number one thing I came away with was how misinformed the majority of these voters were. It was sad and shocking at the same time.
@tribelaw And/or you can blame the Democratic Party for not better informing the electorate of the danger that Trump poses.
@tribelaw We need to understand most Americans avoid the news. They can silo themselves in social media.
@tribelaw The press has never told the truth about Trump. There’s a reason only 9% of NYC voted Trump. Not a smart business man. A crass serial assaulter of women. A dead beat. A racist. The press didn’t have to look very far. They just needed to look
@tribelaw You’ve become the clown version of your former self, and you were already kind of clownish.
@tribelaw The mainstream media treatment, and for that matter corporate America, of the attempt to overturn an election as just another political matter is very concerning. Like an embezzled, a cheating referee, a corporate vandal, we should be told that Trump is INELIGIBLE for REHIRE.
@tribelaw yawn I am hoping Trump goes for two days.
@tribelaw Probably because people are just hungry and broke is more Like it.
@tribelaw MAGA are no victims of lies being told to them. They proactively seek conspiracies that are conveniently beneficial to them and blockout legitimate data, facts and news. The 'perpetrators' of lies are just opportunists, starting with Trump. And he loves the undereducated so much.
