The one-third plus of the electorate that rarely bothers to vote is hardly "the left". They are more the checked-out indifferent.

No I don't question that. The answer is simple. Right wing media caters to the audience's prejudices, biases, and fears; actual truth and facts be damned.

In right wing circles, yes. Remember 40% of the electorate has been told, and believes, that any news organization outside the right wing silo is "woke" and part of the dreaded "liberal media".

Why are critics of Trump held to a lofty level of fairness while the entire right wing media disinformation apparatus, devoted to pushing outright lies in a coordinated fashion, is given a pass?

But he is a committed Nazi. So expect escalation after escalation until his wet dream is achieved: martial law. #MillerIsaNazi

Come. On. That sounds suspiciously like "When they go low, we go high", the worst political advice of the Trump era. If you want to maintain your purity by not acting like the MAGAts, have a nice time in the camps they will be happy to place you in.

...Musk hasn't changed his goals despite his current flap with Trump, so he should be shunned, IMO. Let the MAGAts fight him on their own. /2x

With a GOP Congress and SupCt giving Trump carte blanche to do anything he wants, I believe the plan of Vance's patron Thiel and Musk was to use Trump, with his stupidity and venality, as their instrument to enable a techno-oligarchy under his nose, to be put in place under a Pres. Vance. /1

Musk is an essential part of the PayPal mafia that wants to replace democracy with a techno-oligarchy run by and for billionaires like them. That's where his business interests lie. And I'd sooner see the Dems welcome a serial killer than welcome Musk into the party.

From the Nixon tapes, I presume. But who were the subjects of this discussion?

Miller is excitedly telling Trump "Deport Elon! We can do it! He's an immigrant!"

Right wing media has convinced them that all sources of information other than their closed information silo are Woke or The Deep State. And they buy it.

Having an armed force loyal to Trump and Miller instead of the law and the Constitution is certainly worth noting.

Unfortunately, he's already happened, to the billionaire oligarchs now controlling the country. Ignoring this sad fact doesn't make it go away.

The right wing misinformation apparatus is certainly primarily to blame. But MAGAts who claim they like Trump because he's "honest" are beyond redemption. Being unable to tell Trump is a lifelong liar and bullshitter, even when spun as something else, shows they lack the intelligence to vote.

Reps have fully embraced an authoritarian using state power to punish his enemies, and to favor those who add to his personal wealth. Calling any of this "libertarian" takes balls. Unless they stop enabling Trump, they deserve whatever karma Dems can deliver once they return to power.
