And that's been the problem right along, most significant from the advent of Trump. (Not just watching on-line stuff but reading the very best of our journalists, scholars and academicians - especially during the Election mess. All those beautiful editorials and super intelligentsia coming out against Trump - even formerly loyal Republican. Only reprinted in liberal pubs.) Hence our increasing national polarization. No wonder Trump got so much mileage from early on from his "boast" about loving the poorly educated! It behooves us "elites" to expose ourselves to what the others (who seem so inexplicable) are being told especially with the social media's algorithms feeding members partisan news.

I predict that Trump will throw John Eastman under the bus. "He told me this was legal, and I acted upon / I believed him." Even though dozens of other legal beagles told Trump the idea of Pence overturning the election was crazy....

FWIW I make myself watch and listen to a decent sampling of Fox news to try to counter the two-sided echo chamber effect and urge others to do the same. How else can we ever hope to understand one another? I realize it can feel sickening, especially for those of us who are already so demoralized, but I really think it's our obligation if only to set an example. How about you? I'm sorry to say I have the impression that here, anyway, those who despise Trump have no real response to (what is seeming to be) the increasing likelihood of his winning next time around, apart from expatriation. THEN what and who will we have left? ![]()

Christie put it well after today's hearing...Trump had really good people around him but when they told him what he didn't want to hear, he turned to the Crackpot Squad (Eastman, Giuliani, Flynn, et al.). And meanwhile, no one from the GOP has come forward yet in support of Pence taking the principled stand that he did in refusing to overturn the election because he had no legal or constitutional basis to do so.

Intersting. Judge Luttig seems like he has a good grasp of the situation. | |||

Pretty powerful witnesses at today's hearing.
Here's a summary of what they said: https://www.theguardian.com/us...her-daughter-testify The whole hearing. The election workers were the last witnesses. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aTHtua8hobw

I'll say it again. Trump was impeached over this. What are the Democrats doing with the presidency and both houses of Congress? What have been the results? I think they're going to get voted out of their offices and control will go back to the Republicans. I hope I'm wrong. | |||
