    Again if you weren’t in the New York area. Or highly online/ informed your average person surprisingly isn’t going to know that. The 4th estate has failed us for decades. It’s gotten worse recently but it’s not been good or healthy for a long time

      Yep, even after all this, a whole lot of people just know donvict from that reality game show he was given, and think he’s “good at business” or something, when nothing could be further from the truth.

      I’m not even on the same continent and I knew this for a long time. They had their chance.

      Edit: besides that, they’re an organized group of voters for Trump. Even if this would have been some highly inaccessible knowledge, that is just a laughably weak argument.

        Consider that you may have had better, and less biased when it comes to foreign affairs media. You’re comparing apples to oranges here. Still I don’t have a lot of sympathy for these people. It doesn’t take a lot of effort to be basically informed. But so many people don’t consume information unless it’s spoon fed to them. And that isn’t happening here.

          Nah, sorry. They happily marinated themselves to be a tastier snack for the leopards. You don’t organize to vote for someone and keep the privilege to be excused for slightly inaccessible into.
