Here’s a theory re: the meme here: the media knows that it profits tremendously from extending the life of the idea that Trump actually could be our 47th president, and it finds that lucre to be irresistible.
This an event which, if it comes to fruition, would almost certainly end American democracy, and that notion is so terrifying to most of us that we’re drawn to explore it whether we want to be or not.
The media understands this with crystal clarity.
What we’re looking at here is just an extrapolation of 2015/16, where the CEO of one of our television giants admitted, “Trump is absolutely terrible America, but he’s fantastic for us.”
Eventually, it will become obvious that, through some blend of forces, including Trump’s criminal trials, that he is far more likely to be struck lightening than he is win the 2024 election. At that point, look for the media to move along to some new catastrophe in the making.
With each passing year, it becomes more about money and less about truth.
As we’re learning, declining educational standards leads to ignorance, ignorance leads to Trumpism, and Trumpism leads to us to the brink of authoritrianismthe end of democracy.
The Republicans are betting the ranch that American voters can be convinced that the Democrats want government ownership of the means of production.
Granted, we live among a significant number of morons, but this sounds like a big ask.
