Imagine any network hiring Jim Jones, Charles Manson, or countless other historical cult leaders through the past several decades, hell let's toss a few folks like Al Capone, Goddi, El Chapo.

Rona etc al were flying high on meth , cok and whatever the hell else all during the 2020 campaign and their convention was practically an orgy, and media moguls knew it. Presidential Campaigns is all about sex drugs and rock and roll, somehow mixed in with white supremacists evangelism

It's beyond bizarre, it's psychotic.
