it s from clickbaits on various social platforms to liesle. we re seeing the deformation of the ill-informed, misinformed citizenry making decisions about the country. i don t know how we survive that. by the way, willie, we talk about this among ourselves, that there s always you know, you read the papers. you think the people who are looking to these facebook postings or you take the chinese-driven websites, they re walking out of caves. no, no, no. they re people with advanced degrees. in fact, some of the smarter people i met in my life, pre-trump who were moderate gerald ford republicans with law degrees, with other advanced degrees, falling for it too.
struck our justice and the cooperation, not collusion, always a fake term, it makes the point you re making to great effect in your piece, but here s the way i want to tie these two things up. we now live in this world where as you say people have basically completely distorted this history, and i ask you as we go forward whether you have the fear that i have, which is that the 1/6 commission is going to have the same thing happen to it, that the trump people are going to run out the clock, we re not going to get to a conclusive answer at the end of next year. the republicans take control of the house. the committee ends, and when then liv in a twilight zone going forward where 1/6 has the same thing done to it that the relationship with trump has done to iit. it s you can t see the forest through the trees. it will go looking for crimes. that s not what you need to know. if i could make one reform to the mainstream media, stop book

the left kept saying the left wants to destroy us, they despise america, hate america, there was a poplet olympia there. so you saw the intellectualism wake of the trumpism and they control everything and we need to fight back using state power. and that s not something i ever heard on the conservative side of things in the years i have been covering american conservatism. david, it s a question asked a lot over the last five or six years, but where have the bush, reagan, mitt romney, john mccain republicans landed in this trump era? where does someone like joe, for example, who left the party, what are they left with at this point when all of the trump and leftism seems to come from trumpism? they re fighting. if you go to mainstream places like conservative thinktank,
