William Fox (who was a monumental bastard of the highest order) went to prison in the 1940s because he thought FDR would allow him to monopolize the film industry in return for helping to convince Americans to join the war effort. Fox founded the March of Dimes. Yes, that was the original “Fox News” I guess you could say.
So what’s happening isn’t the new America, it’s the old America with the worst possible person in charge. Ever since I could vote, I’ve been voting for FDR even though I know that’s not what I’m going to get. If anything good comes out of this disaster, it will be that an Obama-like figure (I don’t give a shit what anybody thinks of him, he was objectively a very good president and historians will remember him as such) will win an election and be able to get things done with an FDR-like mandate. Trump has really opened the hatches for all kinds of horrible backlash.
