For those of us who listen into their circular madness, what everyone saw over the last few weeks is old hat. Yes I listen in. It's like a different language let alone another reality.
What the nation saw is everyday happenings on talk radio. Fox News is the glossy, prettier version. Everything you heard was legend and lore there. Established fact. To say otherwise (to them) would be both crazy and falling for the liberal media's lies.
But here's the interesting part - this isn't mimicking, this is required. From radio hosts to their politicians, if you don't say what the listener expects to hear EVERY DAY the listener will go somewhere else. It's repetition as a hobby or habit for the audience.
Gaetz, jacket Off Jordan, Collins, etc are "Rock Stars" now. But one misstep and they can get primaried and they know it. . They HAVE to say what they say just like radio hosts or they could lose the audience.
