Growing threat? My dudes. Where have you been and where should we start? Salem Witch Trials? Fundamentalist LDS. Orthodox Jewish men who refuse to grant their wives divorces and instead harass them and essentially hold them hostage, often for years?

It’s a valid question, but lets people off the hook. If you were 18 or younger and Fox was invented and you became indoctrinated, ok. There was lots of time and history before Trump 1. Were these people just hatched and so innocent they were totally vulnerable to the misinformation machine?

I hope you are right, but the unfortunate truth is that Idahoans (and voters in many other states) have allowed their governments to be taken hostage by the most extreme right wingers. It’s nice to care deeply, but you also have to vote responsibly.

Idaho has made it clear that it does not care.
