Sure it does.
It does it in the way that Rush was successful in the late 80’s and how Fox was successful in the 2010’s.
There needs to be a disruptive “force” that comes into position. Trump certainly filled that role—but we need something that is going to get the message to a newer audience. I think the country is aching for that.
The younger generations are beginning to realize (or soon will) that they have been lied to. When the social democrats fail to deliver—or they actually DO deliver and people realize what a scam it is, they will be ready to move to some other party.
What will rise from this is a centrist party that focuses on ‘government” issues—not social issues. New media will emerge that is truth telling—in a way that they can embrace.
Lets face it, the world of the Boomers is fast disappearing. That is neither good nor bad, it just is. The next group will share values—but they will not look like the boomers or act like them. They will build their base on new media and new leaders.
Just as our parents did not embrace the transition of the late 60’s and into the 70’s, those over the age of 55 will not “like” what is coming. But we will have to adjust our control, check our values with theirs, and make sure we are there to “guide” the new crop—but not expect them to blindly follow us.
Its far from over. Its simply changing.
“Centrist?”
Like hell.
I don’t think centrist gvmt is gonna cut it. You don’t beat this kind of extremism with that.
