Creeps

I just saw Frank Luntz on TV trying to share what he’s learned about how to convince people to get vaccines. I understand that we have to be compassionate and understanding of people who are hesitant. But I have no fucks left to give for the Trumpers who are just being obstinate.

Luntz indicates that they need to be coddled and comforted and everyone needs to find ways to make them feel good about themselves. Great. Go for it. Their family doctor or pharmacist or preacher can do that work.

Anyway, I came across this focus group Luntz held about the election which illustrates the political divide. I’ll let you be the judge of which ones in the group are the most obnoxious:

That was back in January. I doubt things have improved.

I’m no fan of Frank Luntz. He was an essential element of the GOP’s embrace of propaganda and demonization of the opposition. But he does seem to have had an epiphany. Which is good. We need at least a few Americans to have epiphanies if we want to keep our democracy.
