Straight out of the Trump playbook. I hear this, I hear that which is then taken as gospel by the gullable MAGA sheep.

The problem is, though, that the more you, I, ‘MSM’ or anyone else castigates either it or the movement behind it, you don’t defeat it. You only make it stronger, because you reinforce its inherent believe that a) not only is it right, but moreover b) their belief that there is some massive conspiracy going on because so many of said ‘MSM’ see it as it is, but don’t present it in the same light or bias as the opposite side vehemently expect. 

44%-54% of ‘Muricans may well be idiots. But they are still Americans who believe in the orange outsider to politics. It’s a movement that can’t be ignored and doesn’t like being trivialised, and as much as I hate saying it some aspect of all of this probably goes back to their own civil war. It’s the same geography and demographic. 

Thanks goodness we don’t have the same here, although there we’re a much more mature and compact democracy. But the fact of the matter is - doesn’t matter if it’s a religious war, a democratic standpoint (as in this case), a toxic football rivalry or even a an argument in the pub - the more airtime, finger-pointing and mutual disdain provided to it all is simply oxygen to the fire. 

Best to just ignore entirely, and let common-sense people see the difference. The world will still turn whoever wins.
