A Very Divided America!!
A new FRONTLINE documentary {PBS image above} explores the vast divide between America's two-party/left-wing Democratic Party as represented by former President Barack Obama and the right-wing Republican Party led by Obama's current predecessor President Donald Trump. The left-wing/right-wing fringes comprise about 20% of the US's 330 million Americans while the remaining 80% or so are simply mostly out in the cold because they are basically moderates in what now is a frayed, grossly splintered, and dangerously explosive political system. That predicament is now exacerbated by what has evolved into a propaganda-obsessed mainstream U. S. media that is now largely unconcerned with gathering and dispensing news via utilizing real journalists but merely devoted to hiring or creating biased pundit-propagandists. That political-media nexus might well result in a revolutionary uproar depending on the outcome of this year's presidential election in November that will re-elect Trump or likely replace him with a left-wing Democratic extremist that might well be more dangerous even than Trump. In that milieu, the FRONTLINE documentary is worth watching as long as it doesn't further proselytize America's overly propagandized 80% of the citizenry that does not exist on either OF the left-wing/right-wing fringes. As a member of that moderate, non-elitist 80%, I don't need a FRONTLINE documentary to tell me what best defines America's great, dangerous, and undemocratic schism being greedily propagated by the 10% left-wingers and the 10% right-wingers who fuel the propaganda-obsessed U. S. media as well as both of the paranoid and money-inflated political parties. FRONTLINE should be admired for concocting an expensive documentary focusing on America's revolution/civil-war-inspiring "divide" that is reminiscent of colonial times and civil war times in the USA's past. But FRONTLINE should have shortened its documentary by focusing on the best definition of America's "divide" that might spawn into an explosive revolution or civil war in the last two months of 2020. If you study the Obama-Trump montage above, the "divide" they now represent within the nefarious political-media bowels of the U. S. is BEST DEFINED by the following definition that a moderate, non-elitist American like me comprehends but the elitist, propaganda-obsessed mainstream media will not dare divulge to their viewers or readers:
During his 8 years as President Obama did his best to normalize relations with Cuba, and largely and very BRAVELY succeeded. But he was followed by the last three years in which Trump has tried {and is trying} his best to use genocide against the masses of Cubans on the island to bring about the long-desired overthrow and re-capture of Revolutionary Cuba's government, which overthrew the brutal U.S.-backed Batista-Mafia dictatorship way back on January 1, 1959, and incredibly resisted being re-captured by powerful Batistianos still backed by the USA, the world's economic and military power. The sharp Obama-Trump dichotomy today relating to Cuba is the best representation of the salient "divide" in the United States now, and that is true although the mainstream U. S. media does not have either the integrity or the courage to report such a fact. All the while, the mainstream U. S. media has spent most of its time and energy in the last three years trying to find or fabricate something that will destroy Trump's presidency, finally finding and distorting a nebulous pro quid quo Trump phone call to the President of Ukraine but Trump will not be destroyed by that poorly produced and projected lie and, in fact, it might help get him re-elected in November. But the PRO QUID QUO that should be actually used to remove Trump involves him giving Counter Revolutionary Cuban extremists the power to use the U. S. government to commit genocide against innocent Cubans on the island, all because Trump believes his quid pro quo payoff will be Florida's crucial 29 Electoral Votes that he needs for his re-election on November, 2020.
Not with Ukraine -- NO!!
But with Cuba -- YES!!
