When I read this: “....the media makes it look as though that’s hip and that’s cool and traditional American values are uncool and unhip and nerdy and what have you...” It reminded me of the video of a panel of libs. Ann Coulter as guest, is asked who has the best chance of winning the election. When Ann said Trump, the panel ROFLTAO. They believed their own BS, that Hillary was adored, and sure to win.
You know, that’s an excellent example.
