That FOX News is Really Something

The looney tune right wingers in my life actually believe that other countries respect the U.S.A. now. It is a deep deep cult. Scary. Get out there June 14th. We have a lot of work to do.

...cemented their stupid asses to the "Fox News" (..the News part is sarcasm).
They spout "Trumps lowering prices" He's going to bring the deafisit down (YES..that's how they spell)
"He's going to clean up all the propaganda in Government....Insert slap the forehead here.
Trump will increase a lot of job and more money!!!" "He's a Christin" ...spelling again...

Dear God...take me away...

in Texas. Fox, like the National Enquirer, is attractive to a large segment of our society.

A lot of them probably do now fear the USA more than before because we're currently led by a fucking lunatic asshole. Et Voila, other countries now 'respect' us more in their twisted worldview.

that have been traveling in other countries around the world these past months...... have not been met with anger, or contempt, but with pity for what the non-Republican citizens of the United States are having to endure, by this psychopath, tyrant, wanna be dictator, and his Crowd.

Most interesting.......................

And perhaps selects certain reaffirming podcasts to watch,

They DON'T KNOW of the stupid babbles, the bullying towards our allies, the details of the "beautiful bill," the constant eroding of the Constitution, or any of the horrors of this administration. All they know is the cherry-picked or glossed-over accounts being fed to them.

Now I don't ever watch MAGA news or podcasts, so I don't know this for certain, but if I am correct, how are they ever going to 'wake up' to what's happening?
