It is difficult not to see the re-election of the worst president in US history, a failed human being, a failed businessman, a critic of science, fact and expertise, and an open worshipper of dictators, authoritarians, and thieves as either a testament to the power of marketing or evidence of the stupidity of the American voter.
I think it is both the power of marketing and the stupidity of the American voter. Like the Russians, the GOP has allowed attacks on education for decades resulting in the sheeple voters required to pull off this kind of travesty. I have two transgender grandchildren in Seattle so I’m particularly worried about what may befall them.
Yes, yes, a thousand times yes, Peter. You got it! While there are many layers to talk about to explain this election result, and we can each have our favorite, this is a strong one. On my own little FB soapbox I responded to a post by an on line friend lamenting the future fate of women. I said at least they won't be steamrolled by some dude on the playing field or stadium. Boy, did I get blasted as a trans phobic reprobate with an array of terms suggesting I'm a very ignorant and evil being. The inability. to have a civil exchange bothers me. Hysteria runs rampant, sorry to say.
