They never used to get the time of day because they had to buy up all traditional and social media while also eroding education and at the same time our democracy to a point where they had a good twenty year track record of manipulating vote tallies (fucking challenge me on this I dare you)

    Well you're certainly making a good argument for them having gutted education.

    A fascist strongman becomes a viable candidate when the working class sees their quality of life eroding while the rich get richer and then sees that elections do not change that fact.

    Now you can make whatever case you think you have now that I've "challenged" you, and we can all have a good laugh about how wrong you are.

    I really don't see any way in which you've at all challenged me. Implying I'm stupid isn't really a challenge so much as projecting how weak your argument is that you have to stoop to ad hominem. Which is funny because I actually agree with your main point, but it's far, far from the only factor, nor does the blame lie where you're trying to place it.

    So that's a solid "no" on presenting whatever you think you have that contradicts the assertion that bipartisan neoliberalism created the conditions which allowed Trump to become a viable candidate?
