Andy Griffith Predicts Trump

[Uncle Joe]

3. I believe it may be because our information systems have changed

Back in the day, non 24 hour communication via radio and T.V. was more direct from the speaker to the listener, and with minimal commentary or punditry as compared to today.

As a result today's celebrity pundits' point of views must be taken into consideration, (what does such and such have to say about it?) while in many cases they just simultaneously work to muddy the waters.

I believe the additional filters of non-stop punditry have created an added delay to our macro critical thinking skills as a society.

Having said that, I don't believe it to be permanent and *rump is now in the process of melting in the public's eye as major public conscious tipping points have passed.
