Don't overlook Fox News' role in all of this.
Trump's propaganda machine worked overtime to amplify his bogus defenses and normalize his defenders’ nonsensical arguments.
They’re already going into overdrive to spin this inevitable acquittal as a win for America.

Rupert Murdoch is single handedly destroying democracy. US, Britain and Australia all have authoritarian leaders now.

And this goes back to the revoking of the Fairness Doctrine in 1987 by the FCC under President Reagan. That led to the explosion of rightwing hate radio and hardcore propagandist outlets like Fox.

THIS is an EXCELLENT example of why the regulations regarding truth in news media being removed has been so devastating to the country. People keep asking how we got here, allowing supposedly 'trustworthy' anchors to spew opinions disguised as facts (from ANY) side is dangerous

I live in Canada, where you can't publish things you know are not true or with reckless indifference to the truth and where the courts hold journalists to a higher standard. Hannity would last 5 minutes.

In fact FoxNews plays THE pivotal role in our national nightmare. Trump gets away w/crimes b/c he has propaganda media dedicated to propping up Republicans. Used to be just rage demagoguery, now it’s a full cult machine spewing Orwellian lies & destroying democratic institutions.

Trump defense is a demonstration that a defense is not needed when trying to convince the believer.
Trump supporters should be offended by the contempt and the lack of respect Trump shows for them.
Trump may not call them “undesirable” (he does), and calls them much worse.

Don't overlook MSMs role in all this.
We are here because they have normalized the racism, misogyny, xenophobia, criminality and cruelty of Trump & his supporters.
Republicans and their bad ideas must be met with disdain, ridicule and boycott.
They are not moral actors.

Those of us who aren’t brainwashed can see that the Rs just screwed themselves even worse by refusing witnesses. They will own every piece of evidence that keeps dripping out on a daily basis.
