People did not necessarily vote for Trump. They voted to hear about the issues, policies, omissions and censorship that occurred during the last few years. Bezos and the WP did not need to support any candidate, and neither do celebrities. The various media sources should just tell us the good and the bad with as little bias as possible. The "uninformed" tuned in and they did not like what they learned, "the election was decided by people with a high school education". Is the level of education a measure of one's knowledge and intellect? These useful idiots are now more informed, whether they consider themselves Republicans, or not.
This was an excellent and carthatic conversation on our democracy filled with some really wonderful, hard-hitting lines!

"Heather Cox Richardson...the broth I sip before the main course." What a wonderful prescription. Great and insightful back and forth between y'all.
Thank you! Margaret can be counted on to offer great insight into hugely important matters.
