One thing the Democrats had going for them in the 2020 election was media control. This time around they won't have that. Republicans are more independent thinkers, unwilling to trust establishment media. They don't even trust Fox News anymore. Good luck controlling a grassroots social media effort.
Sorry, that isn't independence; that is denial. Republicans only want an echo chamber and to her what they want to hear. That is a extremely close-minded way of thinking, the vast polar opposite of independent.
