He has a hard time being around them and when he comes over Fox is on the tv all the time. I met these people and they are nice but got caught up in the cult. I now refer to Twitler supporters as cult members.

scream freedom of the press. Joseph Goebbels would have loved the US, easy prey. And none question Rupert Murdoch's agenda. We have a number working hard to bring this country down, Alex Jones is another, for example, in it for promoting his garbage products.
