(2,747 posts)24. One problem..
This piece is great...it puts it all together in one place. Best summation to date.
The problem is that it's preaching to the choir... the choir, of course, being people whose attention span is longer than a gnat's.
Anybody who has been following what has happened in this country since trump's campaign began in 2015 knows all this.
And the sad idiots who NEED to watch this won't. Because they can't focus that long.
trump's rallies were long, but they were comprised of dog-whistle-bumper-sticker-phrases that turned the crowd on, folded into long paragraphs that the faithful used to rest their brains.

Well, the trumpers would say tl;cw. Too Long Couldn't Watch.

It's devastating to hear truth spoken soberly and clearly, particularly the massive damage done...
