And I totally agree with you Lee on the media programming aspect. Look below in this article how the conservative media programing was able to gin up there base from the norm almost overnight with there talking points.(and 25 dollar red hats) But in reality I doubt we will ever go "back" to the conservative dream and Andy Griffith or even Leave it to Beaver. When so many folks get the short end of the stick for so long, and the same talking points of your just not trying hard enough or the old tax cuts for the rich will trickle down your going to get discontent. But again the "media" does play a huge part in channeling people in both directions with sensationalism piled on top. I do like your idea of cutting the cord. A recent survey released by the Public Policy Research Institute (PPRI) found that only 29 percent of Republicans say that American culture and way of life have changed for the better since the 1950s. The number is a leap down from 2020 when 46 percent of Republicans said American culture and way of life had changed for the better since the 1950s, but is only two points off from what Republicans said in 2016, before Donald Trump was elected President. “It is notable that Republicans have gone up in their views during the Trump administration at the end at the height of his presidency and just a year later they have dropped down to where they were when Trump was running for President back in 2016,” said Robert P. Jones, the founder of the PPRI “Clearly they thought Trump was taking it back to a version more consistent to the vision of the country that was more consistent with the 1950s.” Full Article. https://news.yahoo.com/happy-days-trump-office-republicans-160906141.html
