Does it feel like most Americans are ignoring the insane rise of fascism?

74. If the public

Is depending on or expecting 60 minutes to make sure the likes of MTG is neutralized, well, that right there is a HUGE part of the problem. MTG is where she is because the people in her district in GA put her there.

Elections are the responsibility of the PEOPLE. And it's up to the PEOPLE to make sure the government does what the PEOPLE want. Our government is "of the PEOPLE, for the PEOPLE, by the PEOPLE." We have the opportunity every 2, 4 and 6 years to replace them if they aren't doing their jobs. It's not up to 60 minutes, FOX, MSNBC, CBS, CNN or any other media outlet to provide voters with the knowledge needed to be an informed voter. Anyone who relies on the media for all of their information is a fool. It's up to the voter to seek it out for themselves.

The alarm bells have been ringing for decades. Warnings have been issued to the public many times by several news anchors, politicians, activists etc., about the consequences of a Trump being allowed to gain the presidency and stack the federal courts and get the loons on the SC. Now it's happened. The barn door was left open and the horses bolted. All the 60 minute interviews in the world cant un-ring that bell. Now the issue at hand, how do you re-wind that giant ball of sting that has now been completely unwound and cut into pieces by the radical right? The way I see it, there's only one way. And it's going to be an almost impossible task to achieve. Control of the House with a margin of at least 20. A super majority (61 or more) in the Senate, the White house AND several state houses. And even then, the odds are 50/50 because the federal courts and the SC aren't likely to be helpful. And they are LIFETIME appointments. And we all just got a healthy dose of what it means to have a radical right SC and why all those warnings were being issued.
