Read what journalist William Shirer, CBS correspondent in Berlin in the 30's, and author of The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich, discovered when interviewing everyday Germans after WWII. Every German city lay in ruins and millions had been killed, yet there was no FAFO.

"There was so much that was true that did not make sense: the monumental apathy of the German people and their deep regret, not that they had started the war, but merely that they had lost it; their whining complaints at the lack of food and fuel and their total lack of sympathy or even interest in the worse plight of the occupied peoples, for which they bore so much responsibility; their boredom at the very mention of the Nuremberg trial, which they were convinced was only an Allied propaganda stunt; their striking unreadiness for, or interest in, democracy, which we, with typical Anglo-Saxon fervor and blindness, were trying to shove down their throats."

I live in a very red area and know lots and lots of MAGA, people I deal with every day.

They may grumble a bit about Trump, or admit they don't understand his actions, but they would all vote for him again.

And because we went to college - in many cases the top schools. In Michigan, if you went to University of Michigan and they went to a lesser college, there is a lot of hate directed towards you by a lot of people. For some reason, that really gets to them. My brother and a former friend couldn’t stop making mean comments about U of M.
