It’s hard to fight the stupid people. The dumbing down of our education system now has its desired effect :-(. Nobody can think for themselves anymore, they just believe what they are told.

For instance, I wonder a lot about people that listen to the mainstream media. Don’t they wonder how in the world Trump got elected if he is so hated? Wouldn’t they try to find the other side to figure out what’s really going on, since they’re obviously being lied to? That’s what I would do If what I am told doesn’t make sense with what is happening. I would think that there must be a big segment of the population that believes otherwise, and why do they do that?

They were told the Russians stole it for Trump and they believe whatever they are told.

I think that’s why Fox has a bigger audience than the LSM, they make sense.

But with liberalism there is NO rational thinking or they wouldn’t buy into Global Warming which they had to change to Climate Change.

And there is no getting them to see the truth.

When I was gone we went to Barnes and Noble, after looking around and finding nothing I wanted, we ended up in the little restaurant.

We sit down and hubby says hello to an older couple next to us, just hello and the guy launches into what Trump is doing to this country, that Obummercare is just fine or we should have religions step up and have the hospitals, that things weren’t a mess when Trump took over, Fox News is a facist news network, I’m sure I’m leaving some out but gee....

Hubby who doesn’t do politics finally said anything the government touches they ruin.

Asked the guy if he liked the way the VA is run cuz that’s where Obummercare is taking us.

I finally signal hubby with my eyes to get out of there.

Proud of myself for keeping my cool after the insane nonsense he was spouting.

His wife didn’t say a word, just sat there, felt sorry for her but I’m sure she is used to it.

Speaking of people who only watch the main stream media would probably ask what my sister asked me awhile back. While eating lunch I was talking about the problems of sanctuary cities. Me sister stopped eating and looked at me as if I had two heads and said, “WHAT’S A SANCTUARY CITY AND WHERE ARE THEY? What makes them any different than any other city?”.......that is what we are up against....
