j reacts to the media giving hillary a free pass on being responsible for trump

this may be a dark and dangerous place to be, but i really want to push back very hard against the idea that we should be blaming it all on trump. here's the reality: a healthy society would be able to listen to what trump is saying and just shrug it off as a lot of nonsense. the questions we need to be asking ourselves and drawing attention to really have nothing to do with trump at all. they are:

(1) what are the economic factors that have led to this scenario, and who is responsible for them?
(2) what are the educational factors that have led to this scenario, and who is responsible for them?
(3) broadly, what are the cultural factors that have led to this scenario, and who is responsible for them?

when you just mindlessly blame it on trump, you're giving hillary a free pass - and upholding the status quo by avoiding substantive analysis.

that said? this is what we're going to see for the next eight months. the media is going to point at scenario after scenario that has been caused by the economic and social policies that clinton has supported, then suggest she's the antidote to it.

again: this is right out of orwell.
