I blame the media.

Seriously, that lying sack of shit lawyer wouldn’t have a platform to spew his fantasies if they didn’t schedule him on every single program all weekend long! How is he not tainting the jury pool, poisoning the well, all that stuff? I know that’s his intention, but why is he given free airtime to do it? THIS is how we got stuck with the mess we have now.

to just ignore him and his minions and not give them a forum for free - 'so-called' spewing of their venom.

In my opinion the media is just acting like 'ambulance chasers'!!!

I am convinced that the people with serious money do not mind the divisions being sewn in the lower 80+%, and actually do what they can to create antagonisms and chaos below. It is their means of hanging on to their wealth. That and convincing people that we live ina society with economic mobility and one where you can pull yourself by the bootstraps. That may have existed to a small extent years ago but that dream is dead.
