I don’t think Graham or people in the UK understand our politics at all. There will be a firehouse of misinformation from the right that will make it harder and harder for people like you and me in our blue states to reach our lefty friends. My conservative neighbors are pretty peaked. My liberal neighbors have no idea. The war in The USA is just ramping up. Not to be a downer, but I don’t see things getting better in our media anytime soon.

I hope so! There are definitely cracks in the main stream media such as the articles you mention. There was an important article in the LA Times recently too.

Yeah, I agree; the politics of the US is very segmented, based on states, regions, cities, educational background, etc. I would think Graham would understand this, though maybe it's not as clear to him and some others in other countries, since they are focused on thier own countries' battles. I think they get it in theory, but maybe not with the same depth that we - as Americans - have to understand it.

Totally. It’s hard to understand unless you actually live here! And there is enough of a battle in every country with their own dynamics.
