George WBush was a drunk dummy.
Al Gore was a brilliant thoughtful skilled leader.
Americans like dumb.
Voters chose dumb and drunk and careless half the time.

Just laughable.
It was racism and homophobia and misogyny.
Populism is a pandemic.
They're not.
They're job interviews for the CEO of the planet.
The other team tries to make it worse.
And the team that wins controls the nukes, so...
Not a though call.
Not a great strategy.
The hero is always a straight talkin' cowboy guy who aint afraid to curse and get rowdy
The con artists have just capitalized on a culture that has been taught to distrust power.
that distrusting power is probably a good bet to hedge. I don't think the answer is that we need to teach people to trust CEO's or something.
but we're talking about aesthetics, branding, marketing, which are unfortunately extremely powerful things.
The Roberts court gutted the VRA and Citizens United opened our elections up to unlimited corruption including from hostile nation states leading to kompromise and corruption of the GOP and media systems.
The problem is under that scenario the rich still never lose money and the poor and working class break even at best.
And I'm starting to think many dems are cool with that.
