... ctually care to be informed. It's sad that an entire major American political party is anti-intellectual but I guess that's the only way they can continue to be racist and bigoted without pushback. Keep the people stupid.

Correct. My wife's uncle said, while the initial hearings were taking place, "I'm not even gonna watch that crap" then went on pontificating about how "they" have been after Individual 1 since day one.

Not that it did any good because, again, if you're not willing to be informed then what's the point - but I did try to explain that maybe, MAYBE ... "they" have been after him because, bear with me here, he's fucking endlessly criminal, corrupt, and dangerous and *should* be under constant scrutiny. I know it sounds crazy.
