14. Or, have progressives go on Joe Rogan...

…after all, Pete B goes on Fox News. Think about it, JD Vance looks like a weenie, yet he panders to the so called alpha male wannabe crowd.

I have posted for months on this Board that progressives were living in their own reality bubble based on facts and mainstream media convinced that there is no way that Trump would be elected. How many posts did we saying that the polls show that there was tight race were wrong and were being manufactured by mainstream media, because there is no way that the electorate could watch all that and vote for Trump. The problem is that mainstream media is dead. Long live influencers and social media, yet progressives still thought we were in the early 2000s and continued to obsess about and blame mainstream media like newspapers and TV news. How many people still subscribe to a print newspaper paper?
