They'll have moved on to fresh phony outrages.
BTW, the biggest issue on the GOP side in the Senate race isn't gas prices or baby formula. Ukraine might as well exist in the pages of a science fiction novel.
No, the main issue is, who said nice things about Joe Biden and who said mean things about Donald Trump. Two of the three candidates still left in the race each accuse each other of being a closeted liberal that loves China, hates Trumps, was nice to Biden.
The punch line? A third candidate, a Black woman who hadn't run a single TV spot in the Pittsburgh market up until last week has the race in a three-way tie.
Of course, the two guys are now running attack ads against her. The main issue? She wants to build a statue of Barack Obama. She can't be trusted!
If I had to hazard a guess, I'd say the same shit is going on in every other state.
The most successful Trump ad in the 2016 race against Clinton used two-word phrases. It worked.
They're all for god and guns. Pro-life and pro-gun, as if that wasn't the ultimate in cognitive dissonance. Little mention of anything else. Even inflation is only mentioned in passing.
This is political discourse in the 21st Century. It works because we're a nation of ignorami.
The problem is not that there is evil in the world, the problem is that there is good. Because otherwise, who would care?
