(5,591 posts)in power control The Stupid, vocal and media magnet minority. It is a massive advantage.
The truly smart majority don't usually partake in the circus as readily. They aren't as vocal/yokel/open. They don't play "stupid" because they have more integrity, personal pride and, well,
Intelligence. They won't do the braindead dance. And they have something the Right in power don't have...a soul. People with soul have always been a target for those without one.
Sadly (and in the current situation especially) there are very smart but truly evil Right wing traitors who have used the gullibility and manipulative ease of the giant-public-farce-puppet-show of Stupid to control the media airwaves. They broadly distract while foreign powers infiltrate and internal traitors plot.
Thus we have had two of the dumbest-assed human males in political history as the head of their party in the White House while far more treacherous factions do their evil best to destroy the fibers of a Of the People By the People For the People nation. The first was a dimwit. The one now is a megalomaniac con-man Cretin.
Obama screwed up their plans. He corralled and inspired the majority soul and high road mentality in such numbers that they/we were unstoppable. Intelligence and soul won the day. (For TWO terms)
That really pissed off the assholes to no end. McConnell is the emperor of assholes. Payback is his life.
The Stupid didn't win this election, they just were enabled vociferously to do the frenetic public dance while the real foreign and domestic officers of this battle aligned their war plans of deceit and treason.
As we all so devastating have experienced, this battle will be a very very very tough gig. We HAVE to believe it is possible!
