Watching MSNBC. I wonder how long it will be before "talk radio" fans start balking and turning off [View all]

the hosts who have led and misled many of them into financial ruin as a result of this shutdown? Seems to me like there should be a permanent boycott of Limbaugh, Coulter, Hannity, Ingram, and a few others. They ought to see these wealthy bigots for who and what they are. They are not suffering through this shutdown, they won't lose any pay and they don't give a damn about the MAGA supporters except what they do to keep Trump in power.
