One of the problems is that the GOP lives in constant fear that their backers are going to turn on them. For the Ultras nothing is ever enough and every alarm is considered fatal.
People have never believed that the Fake News industry is totally controlled by radical leftists. That is changing and is critical in this continuing fight. It is also significant that today’s young give the NYT no more credibility than Breitbart. Most of the Fake News watchers are dying out and not replaced by equally credible leftist organizations.
You and I won’t be around to see one of, if not the, biggest battle facing America and that is the radical left control of education. It will take decades but must be undertaken. Much of parents’ time is taken up undoing the radicals’ indoctrination.
Lefties began to take over education, in the late '60s. Many guys who wanted to avoid going to Nam, went to college and majored in education. Some lefties went into education to do what they have done and it had nothing at all to do with avoiding military service.
Once the majority of women were able to get jobs outside of teaching and nursing, they abandoned those professions. That left education wide open to much lesser lights.
Fast forward a bit and those who majored in junk majors, could ONLY find jobs teaching ( and I use that term loosely )college courses in the same useless crap.
One major problem re teaching, is that the methods that REALLY worked, were thrown out and replaced with stuff that simply DOES NOT WORK; hence we have generations, now, of very dumbed down morons.
Yes, many parents have abrogated their responsibilities.
No, I won't live to see a change...if there ever is one.
