It's obvious from the graph he posted that voter turnout started declining during Reconstruction and when women got the vote in 1920 voter turnout once again went up.

The massive decline starting in 1892 coincides with the first wave of illegal immigrant invader caravans from Europe to Ellis Island.


The turnout never recovered after women started voting.

the graph doesn't support that. it recovered to a point of pre-suffrage in the 30s and 50s, it just never recovered to a point of pre-emancipation AND pre-suffrage.

but you're only accounting for one factor, bit unfair when the decline started before women voted by at least a few decades. especially when the low turnout in the early days of women voting was due to men not allowing women to vote mixed with societal norms slowly changing.

"In spite of reports, I will be doing a live show from Cape Girardeau and interviewing President Trump before the rally. To be clear, I will not be on stage campaigning with the President. I am covering final rally for my show. Something I have done in every election in the past." - Sean Hannity





Life comes at you fast.

Is Hannity's show a legit, independent news show or a de facto propaganda outlet for Trump?

Hannity is pretty obviously a pro-Trump robot.

Hannity's show is obviously the most blatant bullshit, but it's more than just Hannity. I've watched a lot of Fox News since Trump was elected. It's essentially a propaganda network for the Trump administration. Carlson is probably the best about not directly shilling for the President, but he essentially plays devil's advocate to a lot of the administration's goals and talking points.

There's also an open exchange of Trump officials and Fox News pundits that occurs. Former members of the administration join Fox News and members of Fox News join the administration pretty frequently.

We all knew Fox News is a Conservative news network. And that's fine. There certainly should be room for a Conservative news outlet in the mainstream media.Probably more room. But the level of shilling and trading going on for and between Fox News and the Trump administrations crosses all sorts of ethical and journalistic boundaries. They are not a legit news organization. They are an unofficial wing of the GOP, and this presidency has all but confirmed that role.
