You haven't watched Fox for a couple of decades. It does strange things to your mind.

Look at the Trump campaign. His weird speeches about blacks having no jobs. No education. No future. Living on government handouts. To those of us in the real world, that doesn't describe most of the blacks we know. And it doesn't describe most blacks, period. But his speeches were in front of mostly white crowds. If you watch Fox, that is exactly the impression you get of what black America is. It is full of stories about black on white crime. Crime in generally seems to be at an all-time high instead of the lowest in decades. The Mad Max America that Trump paints in his speeches is a reflection of what Fox tells its viewers, instead of the one that the rest of us live in. Things may be far from perfect here in reality, but it is better than the fear-driven place that the Fox viewers know.

And this is reflected in the research. If you watch Fox, you tend to think that things are pretty much ok where you live, but in other parts of the country it is like some post-apocalyptic wasteland where civilization has broken down and it is the law of the jungle according to studies. After all, they see it on TV every day. All day. The MSM shows a different world, so they must be lying. Obviously, the MSM refuses to show things as they actually are.

But with Trump running away everything he promised on the campaign trail, you wonder how they will be able to process it. Probably by making up a story about Hillary and Obama have forced him to give up.

Remember these people believe that Trump understands them. And that an older, white male billionaire has the system rigged against him...
