      No it isn’t. The point isn’t that they themselves need to know too. It’s the voters that need to know. The people who come online to view cats after a hard day of PowerPoint and shoveling dirt. They get a small window to see this stuff. They almost always see something about some purple hair crazy leftist yelling about how they hate people who shovel dirt or use PowerPoint.

        I feel like these are two separate things.

        Edit: Or they’re the exact same thing. Seriously, you’re giving examples of exactly what I’m saying.

          I thought you were saying the media is making fun of right ring wingers. The media is placating Trump. Just like how journalists are asking soft back questions.
