that a populist (american) candidate is the peace candidate should tell you detached are the US elites from reality

the sad thing is that they can afford that because of how much the masses are detached from reality as well. We live in an unprecedented time of access to information, everything is at our fingertips, yet people still consume and regurgitate the bullshit as if it was 1920.

"Detached from reality" indeed. The Washington Blob and its Boomer loyalists have been growing crazier for awhile now, but as our host accurately pointed out, they suffered some kind of psychotic break in 2016 with the election of The Orange One. Now there is no consensus too insane for them to coalesce around. Vax Sars-2 out of existence! Gender-affirm every confused teenager! Regime-change Moscow!

That last one's a doozy. Pray to whatever gods may be that there is some version of this Zoki fellow plying reason along the Potomac.
