I just went over to FoxNews.com and watched a little of an interview with Lindsey Graham and Sean Hannity, and it was so masterful. Why can't the left have a brain washing channel? Why do we think that common sense and facts will make people believe?
It was amazing as I listened how radical Nancy Pelosi was becoming and if the Democrats allowed her, the US would be just like Venezuela. It was terrifying. Lindsey was so sincere too. To see a US Senator, lying out his teeth like that to the Fox watchers was amazing. None of this complicated facts. Just total, easy to understand, BS.
We must come up with a PsyOps branch to brainwash the lower intelligence members of the Republican party and bring them over to the light. If we just had a shiny object to show them.

(10,252 posts)We are better than that. At least I am. I hope all DUers are too. What we need is to be ethically moral people, who work for the benefit and happiness of all people. We don't need to lie and hate-monger and fear-monger to manipulate gullible people. We can't get to an enlightened society without each and everyone of us getting very clear about being an ethically moral person.

Trump is failing.
The Republicans of today are just going to be a very bad memory in the years ahead.
Hannity's place in history is not a good one. Neither is McConnell's or Trump's.
