To Trump and Fox News followers, and I say this with love and respect, they are offering you a set of things to fear and hate in response to anything that may be wrong with your lives. Respectfully,why not consider joining a movement that actually looks to make your lives better?

(47,953 posts)I think, however, that they don't expect the GOP to make their lives better. They want other's lives to be worse.

(12,821 posts)... with a teacher strike looming, you'll hear radio callers sarcastically complain along the lines of, "Well, hell, we all want more money. Wish *I* could just demand a raise and not show up for work!"
Conservatives confusedly don't realize or don't remember that they could've done that very thing -- effectively -- if they hadn't knee-capped unions and made Oklahoma a so-called right-to-work state.
Instead, they just piss and moan about how the 49th-ranked worst-paid teachers are just greedy takers.

(12,448 posts)Many of them are strictly about hate. And Trump feeds their hatred. I realize there are exceptions, but watch the Trump rallies. The hate is palatable.

(90,348 posts)... winger news isn't as well trusted as FAUX and FAUX is now a propaganda outlet for Benedict Donald's crew.
Wish I was looking at the show though
