Describing current political conflict as a hint (satirically, of course) is like saying the sun is a light. Leaves here include the varying shades of Buttercup’s hair and TupPence’s face. Another hint?
The situation in rural America has been deliberately designed by 1%ers to produce MAGAts. They own the news outlets that broadcast the conservative propaganda, and use them specifically for that purpose. Watch a few minutes of Faux news. It’s a real eye opener. In some states, you can’t get much else, and the talk radio is even more insane. A lot of the people who are in the Faux bubble would really have to put out some serious effort to get some contact with reality, while they are constantly bombarded with conservative propaganda. And, the people they have coffee with, go to church (or the bar) with etc are dealing with the same situation. That means that real people that you know and trust are backing up what you are getting from the propaganda machine. Unless you are a really intelligent, involved person, you are going to accept the world you see, unaware that it has been paid for and organized by people who are working against your best interests.

Amazing how BOTH sides in this war accuse the other of various lies and slanders while protesting their own lily-white innocence of all sins of omission and commission. But the FACTS cannot be disputed that the LEFT are much more vicious and deliberately misleading than the right.In Australia we have the same sorts of things happen at election time but NOWHERE near the scale,meanness, viciousness and blatant disregard for basic human decency that your great country is infested with, especially on the left.I hope things work out well for all Americans and their country

One on the verge of possibly electing a demented puppet is worse.
