USAToday has a group of 25 trump voters that they interview from time to time. I can only guess they are really ignorant Fux News viewers. There is no other explanation. I wish we could just move them to Russia since they think treasonous behavior is just 'politics'

(6,917 posts)When compulsive gamblers are faced with their losing ways, instead of stopping they double-down. Why? Because doubling down proves (to themselves) they are really correct.

2. The panel can't agree on what his priority should be.

(9 posts)If Trump was a different gender or ethnicity I can assure you they would have regretted their vote 6 moths ago. It's not stupidity but cultural conditioning drive their decision

(9,670 posts)Did the USA Today ask how many of the panelists watched FOX News on a regular basis?
That should be the root of the investigation: how propaganda turns otherwise functional human beings into misdirected, mislead cattle.

(12,545 posts)It's a 24 / 7 Republican campaign ad.
I work with a bunch of different people who are all educated and intelligent, or they wouldn't be in the cockpit with me. A disturbingly large percentage of them are propagandized to the point of complete irrationality.
I am not exaggerating. Politics is a taboo subject on my flight deck just for safety reasons. These folks get really worked up if you start talking about their trigger issues.

(9,090 posts)we're in this mess is the polling and dem and left orgs completely ignore talk radio an often blame fox.
fox can't do the unchallenged unnoticed repetition, and it can't be locally coordinated like talk radio. talk raido is the only major medium with NO free easy alternative. tv and internet provide easy alts a click away but in most parts of the US there are no political alternatives - and no, npr and music dont compete with it.
trump studied talk radio in 2014 (gabriel sherman - NY magazine 4/3/16) and most of the best russian trolling piggybacked it and the fucking dem establishment and liberal and media orgs can't even poll for it and blame fox.....

Unless by legal magic, money is removed from politics.
