I think of Fox and NSNBC as two different version of the same thing—cognitive dissonance networks for people who make bad choices but need to resolve their emotional discomfort.

It seems all of Trump’s policies are about what’s best for Trump. We’ve gone from Tariffs to Culture Wars. The next step seems to be real war.
