GOP Voters Heard More About Dr. Seuss Than Relief Plan

April 6, 2021 at 10:54 am EDT By Taegan Goddard

Dan Pfieffer highlights polling data showing that more GOP voters reported hearing about Dr. Seuss’s estate pulling six of its books from publication than passage of President Biden’s $1.9 trillion pandemic relief plan.

“This finding is a testament to the power of the issue and massive indictment of America’s information ecosystem. Dr. Seuss’s books weren’t banned. It’s a completely fake issue driven by blow-dried blowhards on cable and MAGA grifters on Facebook. Yet, it received as much attention as the passage of a historic piece of legislation that will put checks in people’s bank accounts and shots in their arms.”
