I have a housemate and also a long-term friend who both hate Trump. I think your faith in the people is misplaced as of today.

This is what I hear from them about Trump and the Mainstream Media.

"Trump is a dick. He's the worst president in our history. He and his family are totally corrupt."

"The Democrats are the party of the people. They care about the little guy and the poor. The Republicans are just the friends of the rich."

"Every court has turned down Trump's claims of election theft. He lost. He should just disappear. He's trying to destroy our democracy."

"CBS is the most trusted name in news. They would never lie to us. They have researchers to make sure only the truth is reported. They can be trusted."

"Biden is corrupt. So what? So is Trump."

"The Democrats stuffed ballot boxes to steal an election? The Republicans do it all the time. So what?"

"Our government is elected by the people. Our government only wants what's best for us. We have to believe in our government and in our institutions. Our government would never lie to us."

"Everything you're telling me is just a conspiracy theory. There are no dark secrets. Everything is just as it appears. Stop listening to your friends on that crazy website."

Maybe living in California's leftist hothouse is an anomaly, but at the retirement community where I reside, I hear more of this than anything against Biden and the Deep State.

My assessment is made by reading lots and lots and lots, including the fact that MSM viewership is radically down. I have posted % before, but it’s radically down. And the huge #s at Trump rallies, it’s unearthly.

Have you read the Law of War manual Majic Eyes Qnly talks about?

Perhaps it’s partly California. I hired a caregiver for my mom - she’s always voted Dem, and voted for Biden. We’ve gotten close enough to discuss things like race relations and politics. The other day she said,
“I can’t believe I voted for Biden.”
