What I think is so estute is that it's more than people merely voting against their own interests.

To me, MAGA is is due the Orwellian influence of rightwing TV and social media. Democrats need to start prioritizing a way to counter this awful influence, but maybe its too late.

Fuck Reagan and Clinton for destroying media as we once knew it.
