when they can’t see truth because of their ideology. That applies to Democrats that voted for trump or didn’t vote in 2016.

What good does it do to criticize say MSNBC for voter stupidity. I don’t particularly like Melbar either, so I don’t watch him.

White wing voters are the problem. Media does plenty to expose them, most just don’t care.
