I find it funny how much governments, especially representative governments whose job it is to undsrstand the people don't understand their voters at all. It happened in 2016 with trump and with brexit. The media and government work hand in hand. Neither of them understand what the people actually want and neither of them actually care.
How didn't it happen with trump? The fact that every mainstream news entity more than insinuated that the Trump campaign had no chance at all. That and with other media outlets outside of the US proporting bush level of talks about trump pre election helped push other western countries, who are substanitially more liberal than the us, further away from us.

To elaborate on how the government was involved is not easy to convey because it's never in the open. The media needs viewers to succeed. In order to get those viewers they need to have either exclusives or be the first to tell a story. The government officials can choose who they want to give these exclusives or insider tips to in exchange for not airing or delaying talking about certain subjects in order to recieve more information.

I love it. The peasants all voted in favour - now they want to bitch about it. Take responsibility. You voted, like sheep orchestrating their own slaughter. I’m not a fan of the rich dude getting away with injustice, but since this scam was intelligently executed- he deserves it.

If the people can stop whining, that would be great. They made this happen, they can reap their own rewards.
