they learned to hammer rethug messaging 24/7 to the white working and non-college educated middle class voters which delivered the election to trump , and that's not to mention FOX, OANN, CNN now, NewsMax and other winger media outlets including right-leaning press also spewing winger messaging and lies to voters all day and all night. And I'm not including the one-time outlier, I hope, Arab vote in Michigan in this cycle.
It's not lost on me that we of the center left and left have nothing equivalent to all that, and the rethugs know to pour money into the battleground states where the critical Electoral College votes are to be gained.
And our progressive media block, the afternoon programing on MSNBC beginning with Nicole Wallace's show is no match for all that right-leaning media. The news yesterday that ComCasts will spin off MSNBC, which includes "Morning Joe" whose stars made a shameful pilgrimage to kiss trump's ass at MAL over the weekend certainly didn't help things.
It's a formula now, and if a center-left billionaire like Soros of Bloomberg don't buy up MSNBC before Musk or some other magat billionaire snatches it up and changes it's programming slant, we'll be left with little but the sometimey NYT, WAPO and other press that don't help us all that much, if at all, witnessing how they slammed Biden after the debate and failed to consistently call out trump's constant lies, weaving and AGE during the campaign and especially after Joe stepped down and VP Harris just had a short 3+ months to try to rescue the nation from a looming fascist takeover.
Things don't looke good. At least the pedofile Gaetz has withdrawn his name from attorney general confirmation. That's one small wiin for us but the rest of trump's clown car cabinet may still be confirmed by the spineless rethugs in the Senate.
There is "Democracy Now" but it has even less reach than cable channels.
