It’s good to understand this is what a lot of peopleare seeing. That’s why we can lose elections.

Lol! The democrats/liberals were easily the “Capital City” residents. Nothing but weirdos. It is impossible to construe otherwise. The left cannot rewrite that to suit them. They are the antagonists, not us.

That is a wrong comparison. Hunger Games? No.

Family Feud or Wheel of Fortune? Emphatically yes.

Democrats are blind haters ... this is nothing more than a different way for them to express their hatred.

I am guessing they exhausted their repertoire of comparisons to The Handmaiden's Tale"!

It’s not. It’s called trying to steer the narrative. The commie bitches at CNN and the rest of the MSM have done this to Trump non-stop, everyday since 2015. We lose because a certain segment of the ‘right’ believe their BS

The HT is just on the backburner for a bit. It will make a comeback soon, in full costume I’m sure.

They both have “games” in their name so they’re the same! How the numbnuts at CNN think. I wish Captain Kirk would use the death star to blow up CNN.

I don’t think the right is influenced by CNN. Never met anyone who is.

CNN never says “who”... they use “some”...like Katie Couric’s trashy “some say” questions to repubs.
