Well that may be true, Unless you are interested in seeing how to do propaganda / brainwashing done extremely well. The last time propaganda was done this well was in Lenin's time and Goebbels excelled at it as well.
Sen. Ben Sasse was exceptional, and if you did not watch him you should. His deflecting from the "political" to the home spun was so well done, My guess is that anyone watching would agree with the man, that Politics should be left out of the ordinary pearson's life and left to his betters. People like Ben Sasse are everywhere in the Propaganda organs, Fox News Sunday host does it well but not as well as Ben Sasse did this morning.
I can understand why Ben Sasse was elected - it goes to the 80/20 rule. The majority who voted for Ben Sasse must have been mesmerized by Ben's home spun goodness.
Goebbels did as well in pre war Germany to uplift the spirits of a downtrodden, defeated, suffering from Hyperinflation German population.
this Ben Sasse moment can be used as a Training video to highlight how the Propaganda bureaus, the local nightly news succeed in not informing the public. Feeding the populace with bromides works, until the Poop hits the fan
When it does hit the fan they just blame the Repubs like they did GW for 8 years.
