While speaking on the final night of the GOP midterm convention, Vice President JD Vance said the country was “poorer” and “dirtier” before President Donald Trump was reelected for a second term.
“We were tired of being called racists for noticing that our country was becoming dirtier and poorer, and less safe and less prosperous,” Vance said on the final day of the two-day convention in Dallas, Texas.
His sentiment appeared to reflect the administration’s efforts to combat rising immigration rates in the U.S., a key campaign point during the 2024 election. Vance himself promoted unsubstantiated claims about Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, in September 2024, spreading misinformation about the community abducting and eating pets.
So here is the thing. Fox News is abhorrent, its a fact. Except, Fox didnt create these monsters from thin air. In fact, Id bet it was years of probing and market research to maximize viewership that manifested their siren song.
The way I see it, fox just wants control. They have no ideology but will mask how ever the public wants to get them to listen. Once they have the right mask they start programming.
This is a long way of saying if racism wasnt just an inherent trait of being evil it could have been anything else and people like trump or vance would play along to get their way.
I’m not sure if fox is to blame here. I think a lot of it is citizens continually seeing corruption in the government. Politicians can do whatever they want and get away with it. Insider trading, tax fund laundering, everything. And people see their money get taken from them and go to absolutely nothing. NOTHING.
Fox obfuscates the corruption…
