The Foxtrot Is So Yesterday. Why Fox TV Is Rendering America Asunder And Never, Never Shows Bipartisanship Except When Caught.

Take a time trip back 20 years ago when both randy Rupert Murdoch and Roger Ailes had a double epiphany and concocted a profitable way to tap into the deep dark well of white supremacist ideology still bubbling below America’s surface. You can trace the symbiotic relationship between the GOP and their doppelganger TV channel back to that time.

Here is the bottom line: People getting their information from Fox News and their current presidential offspring, Donald John Trump, eyeball his Twitter account spewing Fox’s high smoke and mirror talking points are now increasingly detached from reality and facts. In turn, this is leading to their mutual ideological radicalization, which is not only troublesome, but also potentially dangerous, for example if Trump loses the 2020 election and refuses to leave — claiming his victory was rigged against him. Who then will be brave enough to organize a mass burial ground for democracy? And, this is despite his massive crimes against humanity.

Anybody who has been paying any attention whatsoever knows that the deranged Donald is obstructing and sabotaging 234 years of federal institutions to save his own hide. And, after listening to the president and other top officials tell one lie after another for the past three years, even casual observers and his fallow traveler Trumpocans can observe he uses the powers of the presidency for personal gain for himself and his spoiled and corrupt from the womb crime family.

So why are President Mouthtrap’s poll numbers so surprisingly high amongst uneducated voters and Republican grifter elites?

Because a large chunk of their population lives in a Never Neverland created by Fox News in which Yin is Yang, left is right, down is up and Mike Pompeo is a liberal icon, Roger Stone has been unfairly pilloried, war criminals are widely misunderstood and should be pardoned and are pardoned, and Trump is a selfless defender of the truth and a pitiable and constant victim of neo liberal media harassment, subsumed by venomously jealous media and Democrats because they lost the 2016 election.

Immune to facts that their chosen one has told ( 16,000+ lies in office and counting) — and that other top officials are routinely lying to them. And they are not familiar with the facts because the only news source they trust and follow is making sure that they remain ignorant.

Fox News viewers are literally force fed a form of televised milk of amnesia. Listen my children and you shall hear a long list of personal and media whom Trump daily foxtrots out to blame. Who’s to blame du jour? The dem-concocted hoax has become the stark reality of Covid-19, the scaffolding is buckling under the weight of Fox’s duplicity, lies and hypocrisy. How that dog doth whistle.

Now, all the network seems to care about is creating an alternative reality that keeps Republicans in power for as long as possible. Typically, when they are caught in crises of their own making, they pray to make the bad go away. Pray the gay away. Pray the immigrant away. Pray Covid-19 away. Pray the whistleblowers away. Pray abortion away and if that doesn’t work, pray the new born baby away. Pray Blacks and Latinos and Chinese and Jews away. Pray the facts away. Pray the truth away. And don’t come back another day. .

And now most of us are left constantly scratching our heads how 35% to 40% of America’s population can trust an adulterous man who sleeps with a porn star and doesn’t use a condom.
