Not just because it's in Iowa. I have hard time watching these buffoons anymore (from any state).

Although maybe I should watch it to see if I recognize anyone!

Like the other guy said Fox News was a big part of it.

I lay it more on media consolidation mostly in the radio industry in Iowa. There is only RW radio in Iowa and NPR. Every place we go we hear RW radio. Iowans still depend greatly on the radio and it seems like every little burg still plays Rush.

... living in NE Iowa and I do not remember this kind of crazy. The biggest controversy was the motorcycle helmet mandate, which they removed pretty darn quick.

Remember that they are at best 10-15% of the TOTAL population, however loud they are and however the profit driven MSM amplifies their impact.

I trust in the real Americans, parents trying to raise a family during a pandemic, POC trying to assert their equality in reasonable ways, workers trying to improve their lives by walking away from low paying jobs that treat them like peons, women trying to maintain control over their own bodies, who are largely ignored because they don't make good TV.

America's best years are ahead - ones where EVERYONE will be treated with respect, ones where past transgressions are acknowledged and reparations made, one's of peace and prosperity, ones where we will make effective accommodations for Climate Change and ameliorate the real threat to Human survival.
