O.k., what percent of the general population do you think actually pay
attention to what is going on in their government and how it impacts
their lives? I'm pretty negative on this. I see the u. rah, rah at
the rump events when all he does is wiggle his finger. He speaks in
bumper stickers. But he does put on a show. I can see people eagerly
awaiting his first tweet of the day just like they waited for the
comics in the papers. I will concede that listening/reading/watching
straight news of the day can be boring in contrast.
How I feel about the general population knowing what is going on in
their government has nothing at all to do with this administration.
All they know is when their taxes are up, a social service is cut,
etc., then they bitch at whatever entity is handy.
