Americans will just go "this guy wants to instate free healthcare, cleanse police corruption, and to stop bombing the middle east!" and expect you to reel back in disgust.
Because their MAGAt base will in fact reel back in disgust if any of those things are proposed. If "the libs" want it, then MAGA is programmed to hate it.
See how the fox piece looks? It has the politicians face, then they let MAGA know the guy is a "lib", likely with the set up talking points. That is all MAGAts need, a face and to know the person is on the other side ... from there anything else mentioned about the person is automatically bad.
In 3 years Fox news will just show a picture of the political opponent's face with the caption "this guy is a lib" which will send every MAGAt into a murderous rage
I remember seeing video of a MAGAt rally. Trump vs. Biden election. They had a picture of Hillary up on the screen while the MAGATs chanted "lock her up". I didn't get it. She wasn't running ... it made no sense.
It's a cult ritual
Like Emmanuel Goldstein in 1984
I'm just envisioning it like a John Wick style contract being issued when Fox News does the bit and every magat's phone starts going off with the notification... I don't want this timeline...
In this case all they needed to know he's bad is to hear his name unfortunately.
it's so wild because to me his name doesn't even fucking register as unusual
