11. agree. it's not about the 'evangelical' subset of the trump/moore base and i'd say

it has a lot more to do with the racism and sexism and anti-liberal talk radio lies that have dominated 40 states with 80 senators for 30 years, and is possible only because the left/liberals/dems continue to ignore those 1500 coordinated radio stations.

and now they're calling for more harassment of hillary possible only because dems stupidly continue to ignore talk radio.

most of the anti-hillary anti-obama animosity was created with 25 years of lying from a few hundred blowhards on 1500 radio stations that were never challenged, corrected, or protested by dems. today the moore supporters are analyzed as 'evangelicals', but all those pundits have to do is listen to limbaugh defending him to know where the bulk of his support comes from.

dems will not collectively be able to say they're getting hillary's or any other dem's back until they stop ignoring talk radio, the biggest political mistake in history.

now the republicans will be enabled by those same few hundred blowhards and the near captive audience they misinform and mobilize, to assault the clintons and the obama admin to create another distraction and create leverage for extracting compromises from dems to get trump and family off.

the special prosecutor these motherfuckers now are calling for, even at the sessions hearing right now, will be a republican hack and they will time their actions to distract from the trump investigation, and they will drag in obama, clinton, lynch, comey, and even mueller.

and we even let 88 major universities support 257 limbaugh stations.
