The media is pretty predictable about this, and conservatives predictably fall for it every time.
As long as conservatives remain persuaded by the MSM--and too many do allow the MSM to influence them--we will have difficulty winning elections.
The MSM really has a limited playbook, and they trot out the same old memes during every election. And they work--conservatives fall for them every time.
“...conservatives fall for them every time...”
This time it seems to be not working, at least not as well. This is because the internet has allowed us all to read our own news sources rather than just rely on the media propaganda fed to us. (Go Free Republic - Freepers never did this - I am referring to the ordinary low information voter)
Maybe enough Americans are finally suspicious of accepting what they are told, are now researching for themselves online, and that will be enough that for this election cycle the usual tricks fall flat and the propaganda is recognized to be the smoke and mirrors that it is. Let’s hope so - Go Trump!
Congrats on being an ex Dem!
