The messaging has been consistent and effective for decades. The American people have been conditioned to it and reach just like one of Pavlov’s dogs when the bell rings. And the kids are going to be worse because of the failures in the education system and the reliance on charter schools/indoctrination centers to shape young minds.
Good post.

You could poll every individual thing in Biden's support bill and it could all poll at 80% approval. As soon as you put it together and call it a Democratic bill - it will immediately poll at 40-55%.
