Rachel Maddow will continue to denigrate those who voted for Trump, because she works for the Cancelled News Network.
CNN has nothing left to fight with except to insult all the wrong thinking voters out there.

I don't think it had anything to do with "overbearing liberals". It had to do with the DNC running a horrible candidate that could not generate the support needed to take the general election.
One of the reasons she did not get that support is because she is not liberal or truly Leftist, as is Bernie Sanders. She is a Right-of-center Democrat.
Are Trump voters uninformed, as you have also stated in the past... or do they have access to a vast right news group as you now claim... which would make them heavily informed voters...
That's part of the issue, but we cannot dismiss the propaganda that was pushed against her.
FoxNews is obliterating CNN, and the others.
Could it be that FoxNews/conservative talk radio etc... more closely reflect the majority of Americans, and their thought processes?
I think the reasons for the Republican win are pretty simple and down to earth and have little to do with the political spectrum.

They do have access to a vast Right Wing media machine and they still have a knack for being uninformed and misinformed.
For example, Fox News viewers are less informed on the issues that those that do not digest any news whatsoever.

The problem is that the big hitters in the MSM are responsible for the dumbing-down of the electorate. The Right Wing machine are the big hitters.
I don't disagree but that propaganda was being pushed from both sides.
There are far more reason from her own doing why she lost than due to fake news. The fake news is a scapegoat.
That survey is from 2012 for one, yet you said "Fox News viewers are..."
The questions are also limited and do not cover many of the domestic issues that conservatives care about.
In fact there were only 9 questions and one of them is about unemployment, with the correct answer being the misleading numbers produced by the govt.
You just engaged in precisely the propaganda that lost the Democrats the election.
I don't know why people seem to flock to Fox. But i've watched some of it before. It shouldn't pass for "news". And even with that, I can't point anywhere that is better.
It all reminds me of a George Strait quote (of all people):

Do you think Trump will pay his taxes next year? After all he promised to fix the loop holes!
Or will he go back on that too?

Left propaganda, right propaganda... still can't polish a turd.

This is just desperate hope. Not to mention very sad. Destroying history or an important person's significance to it is the stuff of authoritarians... This opinion really shows you in a sad political state.
You mean like taking down Confederate flags, moving statues, renaming roads and parks, etc...? The Liberals thought it was a great idea for them to do away with any history they thought improper, but now it's "sad, desperate and authoritarian" ?
There's that Liberal double standard again.
The Left's propaganda is no where near the same quantity and quality. Never has been.
