The oligarchs own the means of communication & hence of propaganda. For at least 50 years the GOP has assiduously been using it to divide us and provide targets for our anger —- Look over there at the “Mexicans” ! They pick our crops and roof our houses! So dangerous! Plus they are stealing your healthcare!

People have to be very focused on reality. This last election the voters split evenly— we had a really good message and ran an excellent campaign and half the electorate didn’t want to hear it. We did not fail as such, but half of the voters is an inconvenient truth.
