Why don't media interviews of trumpanzees include the question "Where do you get your info?

That's what's dividing the country more than anything else -- wingnutism propelled by wingnut media. Non-trumpanzees should also be asked that question, to be fair (and get out the word as to where non-wingnut, fact-based media can be found).

It's apples and oranges to say that impeachment will be too divisive, imho.

I was going to object and say leading question. "Info" would steer them into saying Infowars! n/t brewens Jun 2019 #8

The word "info" is probably pavlovian to wingnutties and makes them think of Infowars -- I would prefer that the interviewer say "information"
