I know quite a few poeple who by all other
standards seem like they are "with it" but when it comes to Dotard and his crew of deplorables, they are completely and admittedly checked out. They cite the stress and constant flow of horrific news coming out out DC as the reason and they have totally disengaged. I can't even have basic conversations about our current state of affairs because they know nothing. You are correct, this is beyond discouraging.
