    Years ago my dad said Obama left the economy in tatters after his 2nd term. I started opening my laptop and said we’d go to the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ website so we could look at the hard data over time. He changed the subject and walked away.

    I don’t really talk to him anymore unless necessary.

    They’re brainwashed to a degree that can’t be fixed. They’re gone.

      It is not feasible to deprogram over 100 million people. Not sure what comes next.

        Nope. And typically when people are deprogrammed it’s because they make the commitment to themselves to do it. That’s not going to happen here.

        Honestly, what I’m assuming comes next is that over the course of our lives this country will turn into something between North Korea and Russia. There’s just too many low IQ brainwashed fools and not enough people left over willing to do what needs to be done to fix this. And this isn’t WW2. The rest of the world isn’t going to step in to sort it out for us.

      thats exactly how these low information people react when confronted, they stop talking about it, they pick up the habit from FOX, to avoid hearing about the truth, so they can keep thier lie going.
