Sinopsis

MEDIA MANIPULATION If you only watched MSNBC or CNN, you would come away believing the worst human being on the planet is Donald J Trump and anyone who voted for him is every bit as bad or worse. Keeping in mind, we are talking about half of the country, you'd have to think are racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, bigots. Half of all Americans. In other words, when Hillary Clinton referred to "half of all Trump supporters in a basket of deplorables", if that resonated with you, you're not tethered to reality and here's why. The same country just elected and re-elected America's first non-white President. Millions of people who voted for Obama, also voted for Trump. When did they become racists? Were they racist when they voted for Obama twice? Did they become racist by voting for Trump? How does that math work? Is the country only post-racial only when it elects a non-white Democrat? Is America doomed to never be post-racial? When non-white Democrats lose elections, is the reason always racism by default?
