People aren’t aware of or care about all that’s going on. They don’t watch MSNOW and CNN like I do. They don’t read and listen to Substack videos, they don’t watch the Daily Beast or read newspapers or other news info. Maybe they’re watching right wing media which lies constantly.
I am retired and spend hours understanding all of this. The average person can’t or won’t.

I have watched a bit of regular media coverage and found it sad and depressing.

I don’t know as we shall deny people like MTG rehabilitation, but we should exact a very, very high price for it. They’ll need to work double, triple, quadruple overtime to bring uncle Donny and MAGA down.
Some have argued that successful business people make good political leaders because they “understand how things work.” Contrary to what many people believe, Donald is not a successful businessman. But he has been running the administration and country the way he runs his businesses: He keeps people off-balance and on-edge and pits people and groups against each other when they should work together.
But that leadership (if it may be called that) style is almost exactly the playbook of authoritarians. Keep people angry, confused and fighting each other, and you can make them think you’re solving their problems while you’re robbing them blind. Hitler came into power under such conditions. And they helped to ignite the revolution that brought Lenin and Stalin into power.
A very informative piece. Thank you Danielle and Mary.
