It's always the Dems' fault one way or another according to the corporate media

2. I am old enough to remember when Reagan said that the most frightening words are

"I'm from the government and I'm here to help". I was a teenager, but even I knew that was BS. How he convinced white working class voters to fear the government when most of them benefitted mightily from Social Security, Medicare, unemployment, etc. which are provided by the government, is the question. And as you link illustrates, it's because when Reagan said that it was not questioned by the media. He was never asked what he he meant by that or how the government was harming its own citizens.
