because they show the level at which most of the American populace pays attention. Only when it breaks through in banner headlines and affects them personally do they care. The rest of it? Corruption, the sacking of the NY prosecutor, licensing deals w/ China, graft for Jared, etc., etc., etc.--they couldn't give a rat's ass, and indeed, probably are blissfully unaware. i.e., they don't know and they don't care. Their lives are concerned with pocketbook, not with the larger questions of principle and the far-off ramifications of policy.
