The back and forths here are indicative of the kind of disconnect the author was describing.
You come in with an analysis that's almost always 1:1 with something one would hear from Rachel Maddow. Slave comes in with something you'd hear from Stuart Varney. (Just picked you guys because you're the most consistently at opposite poles.)
There's a lot of "narrative," even here. But how many Trump voters from Appalachia do you see every week? Right.
I think we'd all (including myself, prominently) do ourselves a great favor to borrow Not Bob's position: It's a "witches brew," and it's a lot more complex than what we think.
