Democrats have significant control over the media and most artists/musicians/actors are Democrats. Basically, it is now uncool to be a Republican. You are frequently publicly shamed if you are one.

But, you can see that Republicans are now in control of the House, Senate, and of course the President. In every income bracket except basically the lowest, Republicans are the political party of choice. And, in reality, Democratic Party leaders are fine with a large lower class. They are dependent upon government money to get by so they stay latched to the Democratic Party. This is why the Democratic Party is ultimately so lax with immigration. It creates a larger voting base. Again, that is not necessarily the view of the every day Democrat, but definitely the view of the political party.

There are many tremendous people in the Democratic Party that have good values and want to see good done. But it's just not what's going on. The division is only getting worse. Large cities have become a cesspool of violence and drugs while completely beholden to the government to get by. Millions simply don't want to work and/or milk the system for every dime it's worth. It's just unsustainable. I could go on and on.. but dealing with kids that have the flu so a little scatterbrained. But just do this for yourself.. look to see how much political bullying there has been from celebrities and how many riots and marches there have been recently.. you quickly find out that those that yell the loudest with the biggest social media platforms are not in the majority here. But for some reason, they seem to have a stranglehold on media attention. Why? The majority of the media is liberal and chaos sells. Long gone are the days when the majority of the media could report without bias.
Gee . . . like say Trump for the last 8 years on Twitter?
