Despair is masturbatory treason. Zakaria chides our self-indulgent funk. So much is going well. Yes the planet must be saved and US democracy is under attack. There ARE crises - tho LESS so than Nikki Haley's 'good old' 50s, 60s and 70s! Snap-out-of-it!
"No data to support" despair? I'm not sure how one can quantify or analyze the majority's reflexive reaction to learning a full thurd of their fellow citizens are whack simps for #Trump. Those who recoil at the new #conservative normal have hemorrhaged friends and family. Why is their despair in the presence of fiscal prosperity difficult for Zakaria to fathom? He should know better. Even the man pumping sewage will complain about his coworker's flatulence.
@LeftToPonder I think you're missing that so many aren't simps for Trump as much as opposed to what they perceive to be governmental corruption.
Trump just happens to be the one benefiting from it.
So for goodness sake, stop throwing that meat to those people!
@volkris
I guess morons need defenders too.
