    You know, and I know, but for the low-information voter, you’d be surprised. To many low-information voters, they think Trump occasionally exaggerates because he’s braggadocious, and they think Biden is a serial liar because he’s an establishment politician.

    It’s a false equivalence, but his lies need to be pointed out and shown to be false. It’s hard, because he Gish Gallops all over the stage, but it needs to be done. Trump needs to be shown as a blatant and malicious liar to the average person. It needs to be made clear that he thinks very little of his base’s intelligence, and that he’s taking them for a ride.

      Low-info voters won’t read the news and shun any media that doesn’t come straight out of trump puckered anus lips. Why would the news target that demographic? Or a better way to put it: News that targeted that demographic with that messaging were unable to compete with other news organizations.
