But I wouldn't have seen it if I wasn't on DU. I don't know why great content like this isn't blanketing the airwaves.

I commend the use of that term. We are being played and scripted by a reality TV show confidence man, plain and simple.

Too many people have been so conditioned by vapid programming and commercials and the idea that their true rights and freedom comes down to shopping. That's a cast of easy marks for the show.

Unfortunately, the end game of the show is, "Can You Keep Your Democracy?" where our contestants face the final boss of the game who is a shrewd and cunning dictator with a will to power that won't quit. There will be thrills and chills as we "come on down" and play Fascist poker for the next six-months. Another season of this game and we may want to start getting tips from people living in totalitarian countries on how to keep playing rather than die.

Who will win? Stay tuned.

I like that Trump gets attacked directly for this. No need to play nice or refraining from these kind of attacks to not politicize these events. He should be made responsible for these deaths from now till the election because he deserved that. The bad decisions at the beginning are a major reason for the current situation and the decision to just accept more deaths for economic reasons will be the cause for even more devastating numbers.
