To those watched Repubs in the House - Welcome to Talk Radio

I’m catching bits here and listening when I can at work. I’m not hearing anything that I haven’t heard verbatim or in kind on talk radio.

You may be appalled or amazed at the consistent level of lies and outright nonsense but that’s talon radio all day long. Everyday. This is what people hear morning, noon (Limbaugh), and night. Over and over and over until it’s legend, lore, and dogma.

This is mostly just the Trump stuff too. You should hear them go to new heights on Hillary, Bill, Obama, BLM, etc.

Welcome to the world that 20-30% of people you pass on the street live in.

We admit that Trump is a symptom of the bigger problem, which is his supporters, but we continue to ignore hate radio & the right wing media machine. Where is OUR marketing department? The right has more successfully defined our side than we have.

but it does let you know what a large part of our fellow citizens think is real, what they are focused on. I heard something today on a local show I’d never heard - a nickname- and have no idea what it’s referencing.
