16. Just after I read your post - I read a WaPo article from this afternoon.

For a while now the comments sections are like separate right/left worlds. There are articles and opinion pieces that the comments are 90% left leaning, and on other articles almost the opposite.

This article has more right/Trump comments. Responses go from "fake news!" denial, to hang ringing, to he's handing the election in 2020 to the dems, to maybe this is the pivot. Fascinating to read. But the first time where I pick up some dissension/anxiousness from the right sided commenters.
